In advance of the record's official unveiling, today the band finally reveals a new single accompanied by a music video filmed in the Finnish snow and directed by Pekka Hara. 'On The Dark Waters' is further proof of the band's undeniable talent in fusing heavy riffs with an epic and melodic chorus, and is not only part of the new album but also available as an exclusive 7'' vinyl. Lyricist Pekka Kainulainen comments the theme of the track: "I got the idea to reverse the direction of the Tuonela stream - Tuonela is the realm of the dead in Finnish mythology. So I started writing from the moment of death... And death was not the end, but the beginning." AMORPHIS are: Tomi Joutsen | vocals Esa Holopainen | guitars Tomi Koivusaari | guitars Santeri Kallio | keyboards Olli-Pekka Laine| bass Jan Rechberger | drums *** On The Dark Waters On the dark waters of Tuonela Sailed a ship hewn out of bone Clambering against the current Swiftly sailing the black waters No water gushed around its fore No trail left behind its aft No oars there were to be seen No sail hoisted on its mast Who did sail that boat of bone Steer the silent ship of death? As it flew and dove And made its way upstream? Waiting at the dark headwaters Were a people sullen, silent Baying for that ship to take Their dead downstream A ship of bone rose from the river Called the dead aboard its deck Through the fiery gates of life It took its silent passengers The black waters of that river Turned to blood, bubbled and boiled As the boat of bone was blazing Dead, dry veins ran red with life Who did sail that boat of bone Steer the silent ship of death? As it flew and dove And made its way upstream? Waiting at the dark headwaters Were a people sullen, silent Baying for that ship to take Their dead downstream Into a dark bend of the river Were cast the nameless unborn On top of a barren outcrop Naked bodies of the elders The dead were squinting their eyes As they once more saw their shadow They were born to a life of tears In the light of a forgotten sun Swiftly on the sable waters Sailed back the boat of bone To the dark waters of Tuonela And the people woke astounded To the dawn of their new life (Tuonela’s dark water) Saw the day once more a-breaking (Tuonela’s dark water) Knew the night would be descending *** Music: Esa Holopainen Lyrics: Pekka Kainulainen Lyrics translated by: Ikevil Produced and mixed by Jens Bogren (Fascination Street Studios) Mastered by Tony Lindgren Artwork by Valnoir *** 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/... *** https://linktr.ee/atomicfirerecords #Amorphis #OnTheDarkWaters #Halo
