Wanna feel old? Exactly 30 years ago, Finland’s finest, #Amorphis, released Tales from the Thousand Lakes, an album that marked my first encounter with the more extreme subgenres of heavy metal. It still remains one of my absolute top 5 albums of all time to this day. That’s also the reason why I chose to put their cover artwork on the most prominent spot of my #battlevest. #metal #happybirthday

#Octoploid is a brand new band and was founded by Amorphis bassist Olli-Pekka Laine. And their debut „Beyond the Aeons“, that features multiple vocalists, was released just lately. Melodic Death Metal combined with Folk and Prog elements. Lot’s of older #Amorphis vibes too. Don’t miss this one out if you’re into that type of music 🤘 #nowPlaying #metal song.link/de/i/1738531974

"The Beginning Of Times" is #Amorphis' tenth studio album, and it is next on my #Metaljourney

First thing I noticed: they stole the album art of Wolfmother's Cosmic Egg.

The album opener gives me serious viking metal vibes:

🎵 Battle For Light

...and you can't unhear that they obviously ate Jethro Tull for breakfast.

#Amorphis, why are you doing this to me?

I really enjoyed you so far, but nope, not Skyforger. Some songs are so over the top cheesy (looking at you Highest Star), it almost hurts. Title track is a banger though.

2/5 (2 good songs don't justify a higher rating)

Ranking:

1. Elegy 4
2. Eclipse 4
3. Tales From The Thousand Lakes 4
4. Tuonela 3,5
