Fair sailing, friend.
Yeah, right up until typical LA traffic madness turns what should have been the Black Winter Day exit into Weeper on the Shore.
'Bout damn time. Omnium Gatherum for me right now. Oh, and on our recent drive from California to Colorado we listened to the entire Amorphis...
Still have not listened enough to give it a fair comparison to the rest of the discography, but currently I'm thinking about it the way that I...
The Spark interview with Jens where he talked about the Middle Eastern vibe that Amorphis has got me thinking about the Kingston Wall influence...
Second and third things from the first listen. I love the guitar tone Esa gets on his solos on this album, and the transparency and detail in Tomi...
I would say that it's Bogren that is making the difference, but I think the real difference is that the band realized that they needed someone...

We have three shows in the area here, but that's the week before college starts and I'm going to be hard pressed to make a weekday show when I...
Planning on seeing the show at the Grove in Anaheim. Should be fantastic.
