AMORPHIS - who stand among Northern Europe's leading dark metal acts, hitting #1 on the Finnish charts five times - have been captivating fans and critics for over 30 years with their melancholic, yet heavy soundscapes. After announcing their upcoming fourteenth studio album, »Halo«, out on February 11th, 2022 through Atomic Fire, last month, the waiting time is over as the sextet present the world with the record's first single and a music video for 'The Moon', created by renowned director Patric Ullaeus (rEvolver Film). Comments lyricist Pekka Kainulainen: "I have done several drawings and paintings on this subject over the years. Now I complementary wrote some heavy metal lyrics... This is a song of love."   Guitarist Esa Holopainen adds: "It's a very atmospheric and catchy song that represents what AMORPHIS sound like in 2021 well." Once again adorned by artwork provided by Valnoir (ALCEST, PARADISE LOST etc.), »Halo« was recorded, produced and mixed Jens Bogren (Fascination Street Studios) while mastering duties were handled by Tony Lindgren. ********** THE MOON music : Kallio On a rock like a tree The one-eyed figure stands Dauntlessly time and again Breaking the salty wave I guard this mountain You circle me in the night If you bow to the eye of stone You’ll hear a distant song A story carried by the restless wind Forevermore The subdued silence of your lips It commands only me Unwavering my sinewy frame The cold night it will endure On this towering mountain Your love even higher above If you bow to the eye of stone You’ll hear a distant song A story carried by the restless wind Forevermore If you bow to the eye of stone You’ll hear a distant song A story carried by the restless wind Forevermore If you bow to the eye of stone You’ll hear a distant song A story carried by the restless wind Forevermore You’re the moon You’re my light You’re the moon My guiding light I guard this mountain On a rock like a tree I guard this mountain ********** AMORPHIS online: https://www.amorphis.net https://www.facebook.com/amorphis https://www.instagram.com/amorphisband https://www.twitter.com/amorphis https://www.youtube.com/amorphis https://label.atomicfire-records.com/project/amorphis ********** https://www.atomicfire-records.com https://www.facebook.com/atomicfirerecords https://www.instagram.com/atomicfirerecords https://www.twitter.com/atomicfirerec https://www.tiktok.com/@atomicfirerecords https://sptfy.com/AtomicFireRecords #Amorphis #AtomicFireRecords #DarkMetal
