AMORPHIS: Working On New Studio Record!

Finnish death/doom metal pioneers AMORPHIS have sent this statement as the band are in the studio working on a new release. 






Last year, AMORPHIS announced bassist NICLAS ETELäVUORI has left the band to be replaced by former AMORPHIS bassist OLLI PEKKA (OPPU).









AMORPHIS unleashed TOUR EDITION of "UNDER THE RED CLOUD", 2/24/2017 via NUCLEAR BLAST RECORDS.




FROM NUCLEAR BLAST RECORDS:

Melancholic progressive metallers Amorphis released their latest studio album, 'UNDER THE RED CLOUD', in 2015, and it won countless soundchecks and reached great chart results all around the world, including their first ever entry in United Kingdom and Australia, as well as their highest ever entries in Germany, Switzerland, Austria, Belgium, the Netherlands and France. Following this success, they released their 'Under The Red Cloud Tour Edition' in February 2017, including the entire album with two bonus songs as well as the live tracks of their »An Evening With Friends«-Shows @ Juhlaviikot - Huvila.
Today, there is some good news for all fans of AMORPHIS: The band is currently working on a new studio album! The pre-production process is already done and most of the recordings have been finished. But this time, the band didn't rush at all and took their time to focus on details so there will also be some really amazing surprises: additional recordings with real strings and flutes, as well as orchestra arrangements and choirs! In addition, this is the first time that people will be able to hear their lyricist Pekka Kainulainen on the album as he contributes a speech in Finnish!
Jens Bogren (OPETH, AMON AMARTH, KATATONIA, and many others) will be once again the producer of the upcoming album. More details to be announced soon, so stay tuned!
