Next week, Finnish metal icons Amorphis will return to North America on a co-headlining tour with their comrades in Dark Tranquillity and Fires In The Distance as support. The journey begins on 3 September in Richmond, Virginia and winds its way through over two dozen cities, with the tour coming to a close on 6 October in New York City. Tickets for this must-see tour are on sale now at amorphis.net/tour.
Last month, Amorphis released Tales From The Thousand Lakes (Live At Tavastia) via Reigning Phoenix Music (RPM). Exactly thirty years after its original release, the band celebrated the anniversary of its milestone release, Tales From The Thousand Lakes, with a unique live edition of the record, representing an essential collector's item for every Amorphis connoisseur. The magic of this work, grandly transferred onto the stage of Helsinki, Finland's Tavastia Club, displays the band in their full glory: powerful, passionate, and unforgettable.
Tales From The Thousand Lakes (Live At Tavastia) manifests Amorphis' unparalleled dynamism and artistic uniqueness. Rarely has the raw power and emotional depth of a live performance been captured so authentically as on this sonic memento and extraordinary concert film. With its second album, Amorphis erected a monument to Finnish mythology, nature, and music that remains as touching, inspiring, and nurturing today as it was back in 1994. Link
