I recently picked up a copy of this CD in preparation for their upcoming set at PPUSA IX. I had their first 5 albums at one point, so I'm an oldschool Amorphis fan, but haven't heard their last few CDs since they modified their sound. Can't wait to see 'em headlining Friday night! I've been waiting to see them since '96!:worship:
 
Granted, Am Universum and Far From the Sun aren't spectacular. However, if you like Silent Waters, you should really listen to Eclipse, as it is the predecessor in style to Silent Waters and is, in my opinion, their best work to date (yes, this includes Tales..., Elegy, and Tuonela).

It's a great CD. My favorite is "I Of Crimson Blood". Regretfully not able to make it to ProgPower, but I'm seeing them the Thursday after.

+1 on this....although I think I like Silent Waters a bit more than Eclipse. "Towards and Against" remains my favorite from it. :headbang:

I've gushed about Silent Waters on this forum many times! A true fucking masterpiece too good for words to try to explain it's greatness! My favorite tune on the album? "Shaman".

I agree. Both, Eclipse and Silent Waters fit my taste better than their earlier stuff.

I wouldn't pay either, but I could provide the swords. :)




Wow, hard to believe it was a 2007 release. Easily one of my faves.

SW is a 9.75/10 in my book of metal. Very solid CD! Thanks for your kind offer of providing the swords for the swordfight. Oh BTW, are plastic replica swords still allowed at PPUSA and if so, where is the best place to pick up a few of 'em for Elvenking's set?
