That cover of The Doors is awful! Glad to see most of the rest of the tracklist - I only really ever liked Amorphis up until Elegy.

Simply can't wait to hear this. Don't think they will top the originals, but then again real interesting. The old tracks performed live sounds awesome at least

This sounds to me like "I want more money from the fans" kind of release

Written by enumaelis on 12.08.2010 at 16:12 My thoughts exactly - especially so close to the release of the dvd last month . Although I am reliably informed this album has been made due to many requests from fans ....

I'm excited for this! The new singer is so much better than the old one! I'm definitely purchasing in this one. And yes, this was made out of requests from fans. They were thinking of redoing whole albums at one point, but i'm glad they just decided to only do select songs! \m/

Written by enumaelis on 12.08.2010 at 16:12 The base idea could be seen as similar to what Iced Earth did with Days of Purgatory: introduce old stuff to newer fans. The Amorphis fan base is a bit divided right now you know

Amazing, having heard Joutsen sing live these old classics, I have to say it's safe to say this will be an amazing record. All those tracks are classics. Is it September 15 yet?
