Amorphis are to release a new live album on October 13th, “Queen of Time (Live At Tavastia 2021)”, via Atomic Fire Records. The record consists of a live performance of their 2018 album, “Queen Of Time“.

The first single off of the live effort is a performance of “Amongst Stars“, featuring guest Anneke van Giersbergen. The album was recorded at Tavastia in Helsinki, Finland, on June 22, 2021.

Keyboardist Santeri “Sande” Kallio comments:

Firstly I thought it would feel like a long soundcheck, but quite contrary it felt pretty close to a real concert. Of course, the band had to take the energy boost only from each other’s playing and rely on the feelings what the songs bring in. Obviously, there was zero support nor energy help from the audience’s side. Everybody probably agrees that nothing beats performing in front of a live audience, but I think we survived extremely well. One of the good sides was that everybody had to just concentrate on the music and playing 100% thus it simply was a one-shot chance.
