Background information about 'Eclipse'

When Amorphis unleashed "Eclipse" in 2006, they didn't just release another album – they orchestrated a complete renaissance that would define their sound for decades to come. This masterpiece marked the arrival of vocalist Tomi Joutsen, whose dynamic range between haunting clean vocals and crushing growls breathed new life into the Finnish legends' already captivating melancholic metal formula. The album's crown jewel, "House Of Sleep", has become nothing short of a modern metal anthem, accumulating over 13 million streams and transforming into one of those rare tracks that unites metalheads across all subgenres in collective singalong euphoria.

"Eclipse" represents the perfect storm of progressive songwriting, folkloric storytelling, and crushing heaviness that catapulted Amorphis straight to #1 on the Finnish charts – both album and single. From the hypnotic opener "Two Moons" to the earth-shaking finale "Stone Woman", every track showcases the band's unparalleled ability to weave together crushing riffs, atmospheric keyboards, and deeply emotional narratives rooted in Finnish mythology. This isn't just an album; it's a gateway into Amorphis' most creatively fertile period and arguably their most essential release in over three decades of genre-defining music.
