You maybe don't know this band (somehow I wonder why wouldn't you know) but I suggest you listen some of their songs.
"Amorphis is a Finnish metal band started by Jan Rechberger, Tomi Koivusaari, and Esa Holopainen in 1990. Initially, the band was a straightforward death metal act, but on later albums they evolved into playing other types of genres. Noteworthy is their frequent use of the Finnish national epic, the Kalevala, as a source for their lyrics."
Current members: Tomi Joutsen - Vocals Esa Holopainen - Guitar Tomi Koivusaari - Guitar (Vocals) Santeri Kallio - Keyboards Niclas Etelävuori - Bass Jan Rechberger - Drums
Studio albums: The Karelian Isthmus (1993) Tales From The Thousand Lakes (1994) Elegy (1996) Tuonela (1999) Am Universum (2001) Far From The Sun (2003) Eclipse (2006) Silent Waters (2007) Skyforger (2009)

Yeah Skyforger is my favorite Amorphis song. From that album Sky Is Mine is also good. They made a video from song Silver Bride but that is little poppish.

Did you read? I said "ONE OF THE BEST". I know SA's new album will be fucking awesome.
Besides, I think "From Afar" - Ensiferum will probably be best unless Nevermore and Wintersun bring out their next albums

Oh sorry... No I didn't. Not very carefully at least... It is definitely an awesome album. Skyforger I mean. Wintersun album would rock 'em all.
