The 30th anniversary of Amorphis‘ landmark album “Tales From The Thousand Lakes” will be celebrated with a live recording that sets new standards in terms of brilliance and intensity.
In advance of the release, today the band reveals ‘Black Winter Day’ from the forthcoming Blu-ray. “Back in 1994, ‘Black Winter Day’ was a somewhat different song among the other Tales… material,” reminisces Amorphis bassist Olli-Pekka Laine. “Being probably the first death metal song with a waltz time signature and a Moog synthesizer, it truly stood out at the time. Three decades later, ‘Black Winter Day’ still resonates with metal audiences around the globe and plays a crucial role in the saga of Amorphis!”
This unique release, available on Blu-ray+CD and vinyl, was recorded at the iconic Tavastia club in Helsinki, Finland, in chronological order.
