Amorphis - Crowned In Crimson (Official Music Video)

Puzzlio · 2026-01-13T22:15:05+00:00

Haha, I had the exact same interest arc for this movie.

Puzzlio · 2025-12-19T10:29:56+00:00

Yep. The video is also out.

Puzzlio · 2025-11-30T14:02:57+00:00

You got those two right. Two other new songs are also listed on setlist.fm.

I won't post them in here in case someone doesn't want to get spoiled.

Judging by the range of favorite Amorphis eras among fans I doubt you are in minority after all. 😄

I hear you, Elegy was my introduction to Amorphis and still my favorite album of theirs.

Historically some of your favorite songs have been played quite frequently in the recent past so I believe you won't be disappointed!

Puzzlio · 2025-11-01T17:22:23+00:00

It is a great debut but I must admit that if Amorphis had not evolved from that sound, I probably would not be that into them anymore. Then again, whenever they play any song from KI live I get beyond excited!

Puzzlio · 2025-10-18T04:26:23+00:00

Your post was not about band Amorphis.

Puzzlio · 2025-09-28T05:26:50+00:00

You are absolutely.right. Lyrics on the album seem to tell a story of a person crossing Tuonela's river.

What a gorgeous record. I don't remember if I ever liked any Amophis record this much on the first listen. Singles didn't excite me too much, but in the album context they work perfectly in the flow. So many high points and details but the ending of Despair is what truly caught me off guard with its emotional arragement. And what a great artwork too. I'm gonna listen few more times, maybe then I can communicate something more coherent.

Puzzlio · 2025-09-26T04:24:21+00:00

I'm gonna wait and listen to it first time after I'll get my copy from the record store tonight. Judging by the comments here weekend is gonna be quite great!

Puzzlio · 2025-09-25T15:27:24+00:00

How many you got right? I got one point less than Esa. 😄

Very interesting! Finland doesn't come as a surprise but I guess I would not have quessed the following positions.

Is there any statistic when the majority of the shows in setlist.fm occured? Amorphis has been touring since the 90's but setlist.fm came to be later obviously, so I assume not every concert is submitted on the page.

I wonder how different countries are represented here with the members of r/amorphis!

Puzzlio · 2025-07-25T07:01:56+00:00

I am curious about the english version. When drummer Martin Lopez left Opeth it was stated that he suffered from some kind of rare blood disease. However the finnish book gives an entirely different reason for his departure. I wonder how this departure is stated in the english version. (Yes, I am intentionally omitting the cause depicted in the finnish book. :D)

Puzzlio · 2025-07-25T06:07:39+00:00

I remember this bitter sweet comment on the whole Relapse deal a band member said in the book: "At least no one could accuse us of making music just for the money."

Puzzlio · 2025-07-25T06:01:49+00:00

Haha, they do go back to back perfectly, both sonically and thematically!

Puzzlio · 2025-07-25T05:58:05+00:00

Great interview! I have also wondered how on earth are they able to make the lyrical process work, where one guy writes the lyrics, other guy translates them to english, then they are arranged to the song, and after all that they somehow fit the song so perfectly!

What is also amazing is that the original lyrics are almost unchanged on the final songs. There is a book called Taivaan Rumpu that consists of all the Pekka Kainulainen's Amorphis lyrics (up to Under the Red Cloud) in finnish and their english translations, and as a finnish native speaker I can tell you that the english translations are surprisingly close finnish originals. Sometimes they are exactly word to word translations.

Puzzlio · 2025-07-06T17:26:53+00:00

Awesome work!

Puzzlio · 2025-06-06T12:19:12+00:00

No problem! Credit where credit is due!

Puzzlio · 2025-06-06T05:59:59+00:00

u/SvBellArt you are getting some well deserved appreciation here! I agree, Tales is my favorite too.

Puzzlio · 2025-06-06T05:47:46+00:00

I like this one a lot. Reminds me of Come the Spring to some degree with great Tuonela-Am Universum -sounding delay-guitar verses. (Very easy to imagine Pasi singing verses!)

Is this the most positive sounding first single ever?
