Think this is better than most tracks off their previous record. Could've done with more screams though, especially in the back half of the chorus

yeah it's a pretty safe single as far as Amorphis standards are, but I really do like the atmosphere of it

I have listened quite bit today and it reminds me of their Skyforger album, which is why I may be enjoying it so much but it is some comfy yummy stuff

i'm a bit taken aback by the clean vocals being so overproduced but it's a nice song - really excited for this one

I have to side with others here. Way too safe for me to be truly interested. When I think back to the singles and songs from the Eclipse through Skyforger albums this doesn't compare. Just sounds like a rehash but less catchy.

I like the music, especially the verses. It has a Tuonela vibe to it. The chorus is weird, though. I don't like the way the lyrics are delivered or the vocal melody itself. Both sound weird and awkward.

Agreed re chorus, I think the clean vocals didn't quite carry the melody - needed some screams

"skyforger is one of their worst, if not the worst, albums"

Not that fond of the single, it felt a bit too much like a B-tier Death of a King....

It's a great record. Kind of reminds me of a Queen of Time meets Elegy kind of album (with a little bit of Tuonela progressive rock).
