Author Arto Mäenpää - 24.2.2022

What busy week for Finland’s metal legends Amorphis: Not only did their new full-length release ‘Halo’ hit the #1 spot in the official Finnish album charts, but also entered the top 10 in many other countries:

1 Finland
3 Germany
3 Sweden (physical charts), #2 (Hard Rock Charts)
4 US (Current Hard Music Albums)
4 Switzerland
4 UK Rock Metal charts
7 Austria

The band, team and label would like to thank all the loyal fans who went out to buy “Halo”, and the time has come for AMORPHIS to finally hit the road again, and on April 13th, they will embark on the “Halo North American Tour” (dates listed below).
As additional support act, Oregon’s hooded black metal sensation UADA will join the combo of AMORPHIS, Sylvaine and Hoaxed for this upcoming run.

In this new trailer, the band’s renowned long-time producer Jens Bogren speaks about his special relationship with AMORPHIS, why he ends up being the one to choose the songs that make it to the final album and how he worked with them under the difficult Covid restrictions that didn’t always allow him and the members to meet up at his Fascination Street Studios. Watch the trailer here:
