Silent waters

Description

Appearing as a re-release in CD format. After the huge comeback success with the new singer Tomi Joutsen and the fantastic 2006 album 'Eclipse', Amorphis once again delve into the depths of the Finnish national epic, the Kalevala, and create a dark and beautiful masterpiece: 'Silent waters'. 'A lot of energy and emotion went into this album,' says guitarist and band founder Esa Holopainen, 'and hopefully you will feel that in August too'. With top-notch vocals ranging from clean melancholy to powerful growls - once again crafted with the help of Marko Hietala (Nightwish) - and dreamlike, folkloric melodies embedded in straight rock, 'Silent Waters' impresses with songs like the light-hearted 'Towards and against', the poignant single 'Silent waters', and the captivating 'Her alone'. A strong and concise, yet also sensitive album that more than confirms Amorphis' status as one of the most outstanding rock bands! Read more
