I never really got into Tales... I love the above EP and The Karelian Isthmus, though.
I think they got better after Tales
Would you mind posting a few of your favourite tracks from newer Amorphis and I'll give them another shot?
I always wonder what fans of the later output of DM bands that went off the rails like Amorphis, Therion and Atrocity make of the first few albums.

No because I know you're going to have a bad opinion of them. I'd rather you do it by yourself.
It's pretty much SOP for me to post things that people are like 'ZOMG POST DA THEENGS YOU LIEK FROM A BAND THAT NO ONE CARED ABOUT PAST THE DEBUT' and I post something and you're all 'LAWL DIS IS CRAP'
I don't know. He seemed pretty genuine about it.
He does seem like a pretty genuine 'I'll give shit another chance' type of guy, but I've been here almost 10 years so I know people just like to fuck with me too.
Perhaps it's because my faith of humanity hasn't been shattered into the required amount of pieces to think that.![]()
There is always the possibility that exactly what you predicted will happen, except not because he was fucking with you but because the music is crap.
Not sure why I'd bother asking for links if I was just going to shit on them without giving them a chance. I haven't listened to their post-Karelian Isthmus stuff in a long time, except one song from Tuonela that was in one of the Mixtape games. They have a rather large discography and that might not be representative of everything they've done recently. Eh, whatevs.
Then again, this is GMD, where some people think you have ulterior motives for disliking some albums other than, you know, actually not liking it. As if people just deny themselves new music this way. I'm pretty sure they'd prefer to like almost everything they hear because then they'd have more stuff to listen to.
