Back in 1994, ‘Black Winter Day’ was a somewhat different song among the other “Tales…” material. 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! Olli-Pekka “Oppu” Laine
