It's incredible but this band just gets better and better. All the Joutsen era albums are incredible and I'm ready to put Amorphis at the very top together with 80's Maiden as my favorite bands of all time.
The nations search for treasure And beasts rise from their tombs Kings revel in triumph All succumb to shadows in their own turn The fish spawn, the birds nest The roses bloom and wither away The winds lash, the leaves decay All deaden to ice, covered by snow See beyond the secrets of space The four bearers of heaven Gaze in all directions The four wise ones stand their ground Call the stars that shine in their skies Gaze in all directions The rivers rush, the lakes they gleam When summer yields to autumn cold Moments flee into oblivion Fading to blue and turn into rime The first cloaked in clement winds The second with meadow-scented hair The third who's cold and grey The fourth who carries the snow away Sing, the beginning of our songs Spin an end to all our stories Sing, the beginning of our songs And bring an end to all our stories In Tounela See beyond the secrets of space The four bearers of heaven Gaze in all directions The four wise ones stand their ground Call the stars that shine in their skies Gaze in all directions Kings revel in triumph All succumb to shadows in their own turn Moments flee into oblivion All succumb to shadows in their own turn
Tuonela is the realm of the dead or the Underworld in Finnish mythology. Tuonela, Tuoni, Manala and Mana are used synonymously. In Estonian mythology, it is called Toonela or Manala.

Haven't listened to Amorphis in quite some time because they somehow went into a direction that wasn't my cup of tea, but this song really makes me wanna check out their latest stuff. So I will. :)
Mir unbegreiflich warum die noch immer nur vor 2-300 Leuten spielen und hier bis heute nicht wirklich populär sind. Kaum eine andere Band hat mMn so einen qualitativ hochwertigen Output an Songs/Alben.
Dafür sind sie hier in Finnland absolut Kult. Nicht zuletzt, weil ihre Musik so stark vernetzt ist mit der finnischen Geschichte und dem Kalevala Epos.
Da stimme ich zu. Amorphis hat nach ihrer Doom/Death Metal Ära, eine großartige Weiterentwicklung hingelegt. Nachdem ich nach "Tales..." raus war, entdecke ich die Band, Jahre später, jetzt quasi neu und hole etliche Alben nach. Freue mich aufs neue Album... "Queen of Time"
You'd think I'd be used to Amorphis' habit of blowing people away with their songs by now. omg, I was still blown away by Four Wise Ones. One of their best. Keep it metal guys\m/\m/
It's such a great song. Being a fan of Tales... and Elegy I really love this for being something new but staying true to where they originated from. But here is one thing: What is wrong with the crowd? For crying out loud, you're at an Amorphis concert. Show some headbanging, make a mosh-pit, go freakin' wild. Why is it nowadays that metal crowds are more often than not underperforming whilst the band on stage is at the top of their game? Just my two cents...
seen them three times 98,99,00 and am disappointed that I missed them earlier this year when they were in town. damn next time I hope. they just keep getting better with age
Their voices are quite different actually. Tomi has a deeper, more guttural tone while Johan tends to have more of a "roar". Both are incredible vocalists, but their voices don't quite match up. I've never heard anyone do what Tomi can do.
Kasey: Dan Swano, Mikael Akerfeld, and Peter Tartgren (in some Hypocrisy songs) did this style of monstrous yet understandable and pronounced growls for a long time. But Tomi is a fucking monster, a wonderful singer all around.

Holy shit are you me? :D
What a band, what a voice.
The nations search for treasure
And beasts rise from their tombs
Kings revel in triumph
All succumb to shadows in their own turn
The fish spawn, the birds nest
The roses bloom and wither away
The winds lash, the leaves decay
All deaden to ice, covered by snow
See beyond the secrets of space
The four bearers of heaven
Gaze in all directions
The four wise ones stand their ground
Call the stars that shine in their skies
Gaze in all directions
The rivers rush, the lakes they gleam
When summer yields to autumn cold
Moments flee into oblivion
Fading to blue and turn into rime
The first cloaked in clement winds
The second with meadow-scented hair
The third who's cold and grey
The fourth who carries the snow away
Sing, the beginning of our songs
Spin an end to all our stories
Sing, the beginning of our songs
And bring an end to all our stories
In Tounela
See beyond the secrets of space
The four bearers of heaven
Gaze in all directions
The four wise ones stand their ground
Call the stars that shine in their skies
Gaze in all directions
Kings revel in triumph
All succumb to shadows in their own turn
Moments flee into oblivion
All succumb to shadows in their own turn
*Tuonela.

cool
Scandinavian mythology is very epic.
why you copy/paste that from wiki page tho? :D "tuonela" was released back in 2000, or does it have any connection to this particular song?
Mirzä Mäenpää If you read the lyrics, you would have understood the connection of Tuonela and this song.
Truly a masterpiece! Amorphis did it again!
I didn't know Tomi cut his dreads. Metal still kills.
The crowd is fucking hypnotized!
This is my favourite song of the album,all the album is wonderful 💯 and all Amorphis albums are fantastic.
My loving band 💕
This album was one of my fav. albums from 2015, LOVED it!
This song always breathes new life into me every time I listen to it! \m/

The best Amorphis song... and maybe the best metal song of 2015
The song is fantastic, but I like more "Under the red cloud" :P
+Zarathustra Reborn You mean 2016?
+High King Doge XII av Norge (Ignar the Husky) It was released in 2015
+High King Doge XII av Norge (Ignar the Husky) The video was released in 2016 but the album which contains this song was released in 2015.
+Zarathustra Reborn Hmm, nope. Just nope. Although it's a decent song.
Amorphis Kuusamo!
I like how they credit an entire human being for turning the video monochrome brown. Also, I was there and this song blew me away. It was great!
it’s called sepia
So underrated! Awesome song!
Great song, fantastic album 💯, amazing band 👏👏😍.
My big respect to Amorphis from Greece!!!

Haven't listened to Amorphis in quite some time because they somehow went into a direction that wasn't my cup of tea, but this song really makes me wanna check out their latest stuff. So I will. :)
Why is this album so good?
Saw them in Budapest with Arch Enemy and Nightwish and all of them were amazing!
That must have been a hell of a show!

Es gibt eine Biographie in Buchform, die immerhin bis 2016 geht.
@Ralf Raths
Danke für den Hinweis. Die werde ich mir wohl mal zulegen. Hab heute schon das neue Album bekommen. Einfach großartig!
Wicked video, love the song!
You guys are sooooo awesome !!!!! Keep going we love you!!!! Can't wait to see you in Romania :) ❤️❤️

Tomi J. is like fine wine, he gets better with age.
ПУШКА СУПЕР КЛАСС )))
amorphis cool
@Slimbeast Pug, the higher pitched growls are also sung by Joutsen..
The return of death metal 😍
Amorphis the best!!!!!!! Tomi forever!!!!!!🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
Ultrabrutal!!!!
István Fodor kegyetlen jók!!!
💓
Cool! Painkillers! Good!
best song since elegy times
Amon Amarth feeling
Nothing wrong with that!
gene harika be
How tf does he manage to growl "sing the beginning of our songs" so fast? o.O
If you know how to growl decently (I don't), I can't imagine it'll be that hard.
Cuz he's the effin king of growls❤
💪🍻
Love it..asbolutly perfect _\,,/
Like you
Great song!!
You'd think I'd be used to Amorphis' habit of blowing people away with their songs by now.
omg, I was still blown away by Four Wise Ones. One of their best. Keep it metal guys\m/\m/
please someone tell me what's the song in the ending called !!
Death of a King
so hyped for frankfurt
YEAH! And I saw the in Clifton Park, NY on March 9. Was standing like 3 feet from them .. right up in the front ... awesome band!

+andi Pawlique That wasn't an Amorphis headlining tour, actually. They were supporting Nightwish with Arch Enemy and were openers.
Very good song, I love it!
Wait at 3:51 is that Marco from Nightwish???
They toured together, when this album came out. Marco even came out to play a song with Amorphis almost every night of the tour 😉
2:28-3:22 fuckin awesome
3:48 - 3:50 does anyone else see that or is it just me
searching for 3:48 in the comments..you are not alone! :)
hahaha. I caught it.
Are you talking about the guy with the tong out or Marco Hietala?
класс
Wow this sounds very much like Amon Amarth, and not only the vocals, the riffs is kinda typcial for Amon Amarth also. Great song anyway.
seen them three times 98,99,00 and am disappointed that I missed them earlier this year when they were in town. damn next time I hope. they just keep getting better with age
FUUUUUUUCKKKKKK!!!!! This song is epic!!!!!!
Voto por tour de Amorphis , Sudamerica, Tomi & Pasi,
👌✌🤘☝👍🤝🙏❤🤍💚Hungária..
the vocalist sounds like johan hegg when he growls :D (amon amarth)
Except he sounds much better
Their voices are quite different actually. Tomi has a deeper, more guttural tone while Johan tends to have more of a "roar". Both are incredible vocalists, but their voices don't quite match up. I've never heard anyone do what Tomi can do.
Kasey: Dan Swano, Mikael Akerfeld, and Peter Tartgren (in some Hypocrisy songs) did this style of monstrous yet understandable and pronounced growls for a long time. But Tomi is a fucking monster, a wonderful singer all around.
draganov do you have any song suggestions for the vocalists you mentioned?
Amorphis is progressive version of Amon Amarth.
атлична атлична тащемта
Great Song! The Video is somehow confusing me. But the worse thing is the audiance (Nightwish?)
Some parts of the song sounds like if Alexi Laiho from children of bodom been singing
ladies (or guys, what do i mind) stop here 00:43 . You're welcome.
