Amorphis

Elegy is the most rocking album ever,and i mean ever

 

[Spiff]

Amorphis rule. I've been a fan of them for a few years now - "Tuonela" is better than "Elegy" though, I think.

 

[Icarus]

I prefer Tales from the Thousand Lakes myself

 

[spawn]

I only own Tuonela, and it was yawnworthy I thought

 

[Spiff]

Yeah, but you're a heathen.

 

[spawn]

That means Scourge wrote a song about me....

 

[Winmar]

What style are they? I've been meaning to check them out for a while now....

 

[Pentelesh]

Old amorphis is good, new ones SUCK-ASS!

 

[KoichCPA]

He lies, both are good but extremely different.
Winmar:
Tales of a Thousand Lakes and the Karelian isthmus are basically just really good,yet obscure sounding death metal.

Elegy is the change over record I reckon, it starts getting into more clean vocals, but is still sorta deathy in parts.

Tuoenla and Am universum are more sorta doomy clean vocal kinda things but I love them as well.

They are a band thats sorta hard to explain by writing it down if you know what I mean.
They have a best of out now called "10th aniversary" i beilive and from the track listing i saw it seemed to have a really good mix of old and new, so buy that and you'll find something you like on it.

I think thats the most informative post I've ever written on my whole 1000+ posts.

Hahaha......thanks for that. I'll check them out.
