Review by illusionist for Amorphis - Tales From the Thousand Lakes (1994)
Might just be one of the best and most atmospheric melodeath albums of all time. Amorphis combine a lot of influences here (death metal, doom, 70s prog, Finnish folk) that all unite to form a rich, dark atmosphere that grips you from the first note. Melodic and insanely memorable riffs, deep and resonant growls, tasteful keys, epic lyrics. Don't miss the "Moon and Sun" bonus tracks, which are true highlights.
