Background information über 'Tuonela'

Amorphis delivered something truly special with "Tuonela", their fifth studio album that marked a pivotal moment in the Finnish band's evolution. Released in 1999, this record saw the group embracing a more progressive and atmospheric approach while maintaining their signature blend of death metal growls and clean vocals. The album draws heavily from Finnish mythology, particularly the Karelian poem cycle that inspired the band's name, weaving tales of the underworld and ancient folklore into a sonic tapestry that's both haunting and beautiful. Tracks like "The Way" and "Divinity" showcase the band's ability to balance crushing heaviness with melodic sensibilities, while Pasi Koskinen's vocals alternate between brutal roars and soaring clean passages that give the songs an almost hymnal quality.

What makes "Tuonela" so compelling is how Amorphis managed to create something that feels both ancient and timeless yet thoroughly modern in its execution. The production captures every nuance of their sound, from the crushing guitar work to the subtle keyboard textures that add layers of atmosphere throughout. This reissue on galaxy effect vinyl gives these classic tracks the treatment they deserve, allowing listeners to experience the full dynamic range of songs like "Greed" and "Summer's End" in all their analog glory. It's an album that rewards repeated listening, revealing new details with each spin.

For fans of: Opeth, Katatonia, Sentenced, and Insomnium
