To be honest I always believed that Pasi Koskinen was the main reason of the decline of Amorphis. But now Amorphis have a new singer called Tomi Joutsen and it seems that they open a new chapter in their carrier. Since 1998, Amorphis were searching for/developing a particular sound. They did good job with "Tuonela" but the follow-up albums ("Am Universum"-"Far Beyond the Sun") were just passable. Finally, with "Eclipse", it seems that Amorphis found the sound that they were searching for so long.

I believe that this is the best and most complete album that Amorphis released since their masterpiece, "Tales of a thousand Lakes". Musically, the album changes from gothic to prog-folk (with keyboards on first role) and then again to doom-death.

The voice of Mr. Tomi Joutsen is just perfect for the album and can change from clean to brutal vocal very easy with success.
