FROM AMORPHIS:
Amorphis have finally finished recording their upcoming new studio album, entitled »Queen Of Time«. The record is scheduled for a May 18th release.
In comparison to its predecessor, »Under The Red Cloud« (2015), the album will include the use of real strings, flutes, orchestral arrangements and even choirs! In addition, this will be the first time that people will be able to hear their lyricist Artist Pekka Kainulainen on the album as he contributes a speech in Finnish.
The album was once again produced by the famous Jens Bogren (OPETH, AMON AMARTH, KREATOR, and many others).
The cover artwork was created by French artist Jean ”Valnoir” Simoulin from Metastazis.
»Queen Of Time« will be also the first album with their old/new bass player Olli-Pekka 'Oppu' Laine following the departure of Niclas Etelävuori in 2017.

Esa Holopainen: "We are extremely excited to start the world tour with new album from North America. There's been lot of requests after our last visit in spring 2017. This time we come over with a killer package.
Touring with Dark Tranquillity, Moonspellofficialband and Omnium Gatherum is almost like having a road trip with best mates around. Every band has a strong fanbase so there will be something for everyone.
We just finished new album recordings with our producer Jens Bogren and result is very bombastic! Album release is tentatively this May and it's a great privilege to introduce new songs for North American audience.
Shine on, see you soon and support live music. That keeps our engines running!"
