We start this playlist of the last concerts released in 2021 by the Finns of Amorphis 'who are now a benchmark in the field of metal and who browse their rich discography, their first album 'Karelian Isthmus' dating back almost 30 years. And, having a live of 'Amorphis', it's not common because apart from a release in 2010 with 'Forging The Thousand Lakes' and the short bonus album 'An Evening With Friends' in 2017, the Finns haven't spoiled their fans too much with their concert album releases for 3 decades. But let's not sulk our pleasure because this concert 'Live at Helsinki Ice Hall', of an hour and a half, offers 15 titles which were recorded in the city which saw them begin, and consists of half of recent compositions (8 of the last two albums 'Under the Red Cloud' of 2015 and 'Queen of Time' of 2018) but also highlights their first period of the 90s. And what better during this troubled time than to have a live performance of a group that releases an impressive energy, the live bringing an additional dimension of power. In short, beyond the fans of the Finns who will certainly keep this album on repeat for a long time, 'Live at Helsinki Ice Hall' is an excellent concert which should satisfy all fans of a powerful and melodic metal at the same time... | |
