Get in the mood for the upcoming “Tales From The Thousand Lakes” celebrations, and watch the “Drowned Maid” live video, which is also part of the forthcoming Blu-ray.
“ ‘Drowned Maid’ is classic ’90s crossover AMORPHIS. Retrospectively, sporting primitive keyboards and sound effects, the marriage of Doomy Death Metal and Folk-Prog somehow does the trick”, recalls bassist Olli-Pekka Laine. “This song was a live favourite back then, and it’s still a pleasure to play it to this day!”
