Amorphis Silent Waters

2007, After the great comeback success with new singer Tomi Joutsen and magnificient album "Eclipse" in 2006, AMORPHIS once more dig deep in the Finnish national epic Kalevala, creating another dark and beautiful masterpiece: "Silent Waters". "We have put a lot of energy and emotion into this album", says guitarist and band founder Esa Holopainen, "and hopefully it will reflect to all you next August". Shining with exquisite vocals between clean melancholy and powerful growls - once more worked up with the help of Marko Hietala (NIGHTWISH, TAROT) - plus gorgeous folkloristic melodies embedded in straight Rock outfits, "Silent Waters" pleases with songs like the fleet-footed 'Towards And Against', the touching single 'Silent Waters' and the stirring 'Her Alone'. A strong and pithy, yet sensitive album, emphasizing AMORPHIS' status as one of the most outstanding Rock acts nowadays. It was in 2004 when singer Pasi Koskinen decided to leave AMORPHIS due to personal reasons, leaving the band with the hard task to find a new frontman. Tomi Joutsen from the Finnish act SINISTHRA turned out to be the perfectly right choice: Thanks to him and the again integrated mix of growls and soft vocals, AMORPHIS' music got spiced up immensely, leading the band into a second spring. New album "Eclipse" gained brilliant reviews worldwide and, along with single "House Of Sleep", even topped the Finnish charts for the first time in the band's career!
