About:

Amorphis
Founded in 1990 in Helsinki, Finland-based melancholic metal masters AMORPHIS wrote music history, incl. classic albums like f.e. their debut »The Karelian Isthmus« (1992), their breakthrough »Tales From The Thousand Lakes« (1994) and »Eclipse« (2006), their first album with the new vocalist Tomi Joutsen, which marked the beginning of a new era in the band's history.

A few months ago, AMORPHIS kicked off the celebrations for the band's 20th anniversary of »Tales From The Thousand Lakes«, which delights the masses even today. Regardless of their relentless touring schedule, they secretly returned to the studio to write and record their forthcoming, twelfth record with famous producer Jens Bogren (SOILWORK, KREATOR etc.) at his Fascination Street Studio in Orebro. The result of this two-month recording session is once again a heavy, melodic statement, called »Under The Red Cloud«.

During the recordings, the sextet was joined by some famous guest musicians: Chrigel Glanzmann (ELUVEITIE) played flutes on 'The Four Wise Ones', 'Death Of A King' and 'Tree Of Ages', Martin Lopez (ex-OPETH drummer) played percussions on 'Death Of A King' and Aleah Standbridge (TREES OF ETERNITY) sang guest vocals on 'The Four Wise Ones', 'Death Of A King' and 'Sacrifice'.

"It was a great honor to have such talented musicians appearing on »Under The Red Cloud«," guitar player and founding member Esa Holopainen comments. "Each one of them puts his/her personality and character in the very right spot."
