Amoral Beneath

"Singer Ari Koivunen sings with so much passion and fire, you could almost feel his sorrow. There is something very unique about the way he blends his cleaner and melodic vocal harmonies with the real rough and scratchy screams of great despair.

The vocals overall are just fantastic on “Beneath” and speak volumes of many great influences and memories of heavy metal and rock from the good old days."

"Amoral is a band from Finland. They began in the late 90′s. Their music is very melodic. I hadn’t expected that when I began the CD. They still hold their own in the metal scene, but that put melody and beauty into their music. This does not take away from their rough edges. Their songs are far from simple. Even the rougher ones have easy to understand lyrics. Fans of any decade of metal will love this album." Yvonne M. Glasgow

Solid, inventive, heavy and dream-like

The album opener is the title track, which starts out with this epic orchestral intro, like the opening credits of a nature documentary, before crashing down into full-out metal guitars. Then when Ari Koivunen’s vocals come in, the song begins to unravel this imagery that feels something like sitting at the bottom of a cold, dark sewer tunnel. Or something like that. The point being that the lyrical imagery is strong, backed by pounding metal precision.

This track is one of the two on the album (with the second being the closing track “Of Silent Stares and Fire Lost”) that are actually quite classical, with structures very much like mini-suites. They explore several emotions throughout, and become metaphors in themselves with their own ups and downs of key changes, varying tempos, volumes, and heaviness. This element also doubles as being both intricate and totally relatable. The execution is structured and exact, but the content is emotional – relationships, regrets, disillusionment – emotions that everyone has at times but don’t always know how to interpret or express them.

This fifth album, and U.S. debut, by furious Finns Amoral finds them evolving from melodic death metal to a more classicist power-metal approach, filling their songs with anthemic swoops and epic choruses. In some ways, it’s reminiscent of Dream Theater, especially when the opening title track chugga-chuggas past the eight-minute mark. There’s only one other long-haul number here, though — the album’s seven-minute one-time closer, “Of Silent Stares and Fire Lost.” (This U.S. edition comes with a bonus track, “Sleeping With Strangers.”) All the other songs are three to five minutes long, perfect for pumping one’s fist and singing along with the midtempo choruses, or headbanging to the shredtastic guitar solos. Some tracks feature death growls, but those feel more like a concession to modernity than the power metal moves feel like a nod to tradition. Beneath‘s catchy, but its timeless uncoolness is its greatest virtue. Phil Freeman

When thinking of best metal album of the year, bands like Iron Maiden, Metallica, and Slayer always come to mind. These bands are all great, but there is one name missing from this list: Amoral. The Finnish metal band puts their new album, Beneath, right on that list. From Melodic-Power Metal, to soft sounds of acoustic, Amoral has it all on this masterpiece. 9/10

Osaako joku kääntää? :D

Armed with the absolutely talented Ari Koivunen (Finland's Idol 2007 winner) on vocal duties, Finnish Power Metal (and Death Metal) machine Amoral make their warmed-welcome return with their fifth album 'Beneath', this brings a storm of blizzardous drumming along with some of the most epic riffs ever heard by the band and of course utilising the magic that the Finnish Power Metal vocalists seem to muster, none the less Amoral know what sound they want to create, one of epic dynamic sounds and endless neck-breaking Metal music, 'Beneath' is for fans of Sonata Arctica, Shade Empire and Children Of Bodom; with the release now out it has to be Finnish Metal album of the year.
