The Finnish masters of melancholic progressive metal, AMORPHIS, will release Under The Red Cloud worldwide on September 4th via Nuclear Blast. Today, the band reveals a second making-of trailer; giving us insight into their work in the studio, especially the drum recording.
“The album is titled Under The Red Cloud and the artwork was done by Valnoir Mortasonge,” guitarist Esa Holopainen stated. “Valnoir is well known from his works for LAIBACH, PARADISE LOST, WATAIN, BEHEMOTH and many more. It was a great pleasure to work with him as he captured the lyrical topics really well. Colors and details describe the music perfectly.”
Esa continues: “Under The Red Cloud is produced by Jens Bogren (OPETH, SOILWORK, AMON AMARTH) who did amazing job with the album. There’s a lot’s of elements in the songs but every note and element is in perfect harmony so that the result is fucking heavy and melodic. All I can say is that Under The Red Cloud will be in my personal Top 3 AMORPHIS albums that we’ve ever done.”
