Following 2022\u2019s <em><strong>Halo<\/strong><\/em>, this record marks a phase of potential sonic rebirth for the Finnish band: the goal is to remain faithful to their epic, melancholic spirit while also opening doors to facets that had never surfaced so vividly before. The choice of a new producer, Jacob Hansen, signals Amorphis\u2019 intent to push beyond their boundaries while staying firmly rooted in the atmospheres that have always defined them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">Musically, <em><strong>Borderland<\/strong><\/em> moves like a two-faced entity: on one side it preserves the Amorphis legacy, on the other it ventures into broader and more experimental landscapes. <strong><em>Santeri Kallio<\/em><\/strong>\u2019s keyboards take a central, radiant role, often acting as the beating heart of the soundscape, while the guitars alternate between sharp strikes, richly atmospheric textures, and <strong><em>Esa Holopainen<\/em><\/strong>\u2019s finely carved solos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">The harsher side is not forgotten: <em><strong>Bones<\/strong><\/em> pulses with cutting riffs, bolstered by Joutsen\u2019s growls, striking a masterful balance between melodic passages and heavier breaks. In contrast, some moments unfold like suspended visions: closing track <em><strong>Despai<\/strong>r<\/em> carries doom-laden shadows and a glacial sadness, leaving behind a powerful emotional mark. Overall, <em><strong>Borderlan<\/strong>d<\/em> feels more direct than <em><strong>Hal<\/strong>o<\/em>: the layering is less intricate, the melodies flow with immediacy, yet the evocative aura that has always set Amorphis apart remains intact and unmistakable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">At the center of <em><strong>Borderland<\/strong><\/em>\u2019s sonic universe stands Tomi Joutsen, delivering some of his finest performances with the band.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">His voice is an expressive arsenal: the sharp switch from clean singing to growl is a razor-edged weapon, shifting effortlessly between intimate whispers and furious outbursts. Even in the most ethereal or delicate moments, the tension holds steady, never reduced to mere ornamentation. And yet, not everything is without shadow: in certain tracks, the power of his timbre is partially buried in the mix, dominated by keyboards and broader sound layers, and his presence doesn\u2019t always cut through with the clarity it deserves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">Once again, <strong><em>Pekka Kainulainen<\/em><\/strong> is behind the lyrics. As in past works, his verses are steeped in symbolism, wrapped in mythic and natural imagery, interwoven with meditative reflections and moments of pure introspection. <em>Borderland<\/em> continues along this path, exploring the theme of the border, both concrete and metaphorical, the duality of light and shadow, the dialogue between hope and fear, melancholy, and the eternal struggle between vitality and inner desolation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">There is coherence with the imagery expected from a band rooted in myth, legend, and the primordial element: the narrative doesn\u2019t deny Amorphis\u2019 heritage, but strives to reach beyond, guided by a clearer awareness of contemporary resonances.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">The change in direction is strongly felt: Jacob Hansen breathes new life into the sound, brighter and more modern, yet never artificial. For the band, his presence meant the opportunity to explore uncharted nuances; described as \u201ceasygoing,\u201d Hansen guided the process with a steady hand, trimming twenty-four demos down to ten selected tracks, arranging their sequence, and easing the inevitable debates within such a large ensemble.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">The sonic result is crisp and precise: keyboards soar with airy breadth, riffs retain their sharpness, and the drums pulse with weight and vigor. At times the production favors atmosphere over heaviness, a choice that may unsettle purists. Yet overall, the mix stays balanced, with a contemporary stamp that does not betray the true essence of Amorphis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Several tracks stand out with particular strength:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>\u201c<em>Light and Shadow\u201d<\/em><\/strong>: chosen as the single, it showcases the group\u2019s mastery in crafting instantly memorable melodies, with keyboards at the forefront and an intensely evocative aura.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>\u201c<em>Bones<\/em>\u201d<\/strong>: notable for its stark contrasts, crushing riffs, and growl vocals, embodying the album\u2019s heaviest face.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>\u201c<em>The Strange<\/em>\u201d<\/strong> and <strong>\u201c<em>Fog to Fog<\/em>\u201d<\/strong>: convincing thanks to their variety and dynamic interplay, with <em><strong>Fog to Fog<\/strong><\/em> giving the guitars a more prominent role than in other tracks.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>\u201c<em>Despair<\/em>\u201d<\/strong>: the closing piece, steeped in doom-laden shadows and melancholy, an emotional seal that leaves the listener suspended.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">These fragments show how <strong><em>Borderland <\/em><\/strong>goes far beyond a simple collection of songs: it is a journey through light and shade, flowing between bursts of power and contemplative pauses, orchestrated with restraint and intensity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">Not everything shines without shadow, inevitably.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">Some tracks lack that spark capable of lifting a good song to the level of a masterpiece: <em><strong>Borderland<\/strong><\/em>, the title track, feels less impactful, without truly surprising turns. The keyboards, though brilliant in many passages, sometimes expand excessively, overshadowing the guitars and dulling the force of the heavier sections, especially for those who prefer the band\u2019s more brutal, guitar-driven side.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">Certain songs reveal their full worth only after repeated listens: the immediate impact does not always strike, which may be a drawback for listeners seeking an instant spark. In conclusion, there are moments that feel predictable or less inspired, falling short of the heights the band has reached in the past.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">Still, <em><strong>Borderland<\/strong><\/em> proves that Amorphis can reinvent themselves while remaining true to their essence. The band weaves melody, atmosphere, and power with great skill, delivering a mature and inspired album. Jacob Hansen\u2019s presence brings freshness and a modern edge, revitalizing their language without distorting it: the result is a clear, powerful yet enveloping sound, guiding the listener through a coherent and captivating journey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">Even if it does not always scale the heights of <em><strong>Halo<\/strong><\/em>, <em><strong>Borderland<\/strong><\/em> stands as its natural heir, preserving the band\u2019s iconic traits while opening new horizons.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/www.heavyworlds.com\/it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Amorphis-2025-Sam-Jamsen-L1010815-hires-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-37021\" style=\"width:686px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.heavyworlds.com\/it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Amorphis-2025-Sam-Jamsen-L1010815-hires-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.heavyworlds.com\/it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Amorphis-2025-Sam-Jamsen-L1010815-hires-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.heavyworlds.com\/it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Amorphis-2025-Sam-Jamsen-L1010815-hires-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.heavyworlds.com\/it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Amorphis-2025-Sam-Jamsen-L1010815-hires-810x540.jpg 810w, https:\/\/www.heavyworlds.com\/it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Amorphis-2025-Sam-Jamsen-L1010815-hires.jpg 1080w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><strong>[ITA]<\/strong> Dopo 35 anni di carriera, gli <strong><em>Amorphis<\/em><\/strong> si preparano a riprendere fiato su un terreno familiare, ma anche inedito, con \u201c<em><strong>Borderland<\/strong>\u201d<\/em>, il quindicesimo lavoro in studio, in uscita il 26 settembre tramite <em><strong>Reigning Phoenix Music<\/strong><\/em>. \u00c8 un disco che arriva dopo \u201c<em><strong>Halo<\/strong>\u201d<\/em> (2022), e con esso la formazione finlandese presenta una fase di possibile rinascita sonora: l\u2019intento \u00e8 quello di restare fedeli al proprio spirito epico e malinconico, ma anche di esplorare sfaccettature che fino ad ora non erano emerse con tanta evidenza. L\u2019apertura verso un diverso produttore, <em><strong>Jacob Hansen<\/strong><\/em>, suggerisce che gli <em><strong>Amorphis<\/strong><\/em> desiderano spingersi oltre i propri confini, pur restando ben radicati nelle ambientazioni che da sempre li definiscono.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">Dal punto di vista musicale, \u201c<em><strong>Borderland<\/strong>\u201d<\/em> si muove come un\u2019entit\u00e0 a due volti: da un lato custodisce l\u2019eredit\u00e0 degli Amorphis, dall\u2019altro spalanca porte verso paesaggi pi\u00f9 ariosi e sperimentali. Le tastiere di <em><strong>Santeri Kallio<\/strong><\/em> assumono un ruolo centrale e radioso, spesso cuore pulsante della struttura sonora, mentre le chitarre alternano colpi decisi, trame dense di atmosfera e gli assoli cesellati di <em><strong>Esa Holopainen<\/strong><\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">L\u2019anima pi\u00f9 aspra non viene certo dimenticata: \u201c<strong><em>Bones<\/em><\/strong>\u201d vibra di riff taglienti, accompagnati dalle growl vocals di <em><strong>Joutsen<\/strong><\/em>, e trova un equilibrio magistrale tra parti melodiche e stacchi pi\u00f9 duri. Al contrario, alcuni episodi si distendono come visioni sospese: \u201c<strong>Despair<\/strong>\u201d, posta in chiusura, porta con s\u00e9 ombre doom e una tristezza glaciale, lasciando un segno emotivo potente. Nel complesso, <em><strong>Borderland<\/strong><\/em> si mostra pi\u00f9 diretto rispetto a \u201c<em><strong>Halo<\/strong>\u201d<\/em>: le stratificazioni sono meno intricate, le melodie scorrono con immediatezza, ma l\u2019aura suggestiva che definisce da sempre gli Amorphis resta intatta e inconfondibile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">Al centro dell\u2019universo sonoro di \u201c<em><strong>Borderland<\/strong>\u201d<\/em> si erge <em><strong>Tomi Joutsen<\/strong><\/em>, interprete di alcune tra le prove pi\u00f9 alte della sua carriera con gli Amorphis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">La sua voce \u00e8 un arsenale espressivo: il passaggio netto dal canto limpido al growl \u00e8 un\u2019arma affilata, capace di oscillare tra sussurri intimi e slanci furenti. Persino nei momenti pi\u00f9 eterei o delicati, la tensione rimane integra, mai ridotta a semplice ornamento musicale. Eppure, non tutto \u00e8 privo di ombre: in certi brani la potenza del suo timbro viene parzialmente soffocata dal mix, dominato da tastiere e sonorit\u00e0, e non sempre la sua presenza vocale si staglia con la chiarezza che meriterebbe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">A firmare i testi troviamo ancora una volta <em><strong>Pekka Kainulainen<\/strong><\/em>, che gi\u00e0 nei lavori passati aveva intrecciato versi carichi di simbolismo, avvolti da scenari mitici e naturali, punteggiati da riflessioni meditative e momenti di pura introspezione. \u201c<em><strong>Borderland<\/strong>\u201d<\/em> prosegue su questo sentiero: affiorano i temi del confine, inteso tanto in senso concreto quanto metaforico, il dualismo fra luce e ombra, il dialogo fra speranza e timore, la malinconia e l\u2019eterna lotta tra vitalit\u00e0 e desolazione interiore.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">Vi \u00e8 coerenza con l\u2019immaginario che ci si aspetta da una band con radici nel mito, nella leggenda e nell\u2019elemento primordiale: la narrazione non rinnega il retaggio degli Amorphis, ma tenta di spingersi oltre, guidata da una pi\u00f9 chiara coscienza delle suggestioni contemporanee.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">Il cambio di regia si percepisce con forza: <em><strong>Jacob Hansen<\/strong><\/em> infonde al suono un nuovo respiro, pi\u00f9 brillante, moderno ma mai artificiale. Per la band, la sua presenza ha significato l\u2019opportunit\u00e0 di esplorare sfumature inedite; descritto come \u201ceasygoing\u201d, Hansen ha saputo guidare con mano ferma il processo, riducendo ventiquattro demo a dieci brani selezionati, ordinandone la sequenza e placando le inevitabili discussioni di un ensemble cos\u00ec numeroso.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">Il risultato sonoro \u00e8 limpido e preciso: le tastiere si librano con ampiezza ariosa, i riff mantengono la loro incisivit\u00e0, la batteria pulsa con corpo e vigore. In alcuni frangenti la produzione privilegia l\u2019atmosfera alla pesantezza, scelta che potrebbe spiazzare i puristi. Eppure, nel suo insieme, il mix rimane bilanciato, con un\u2019impronta attuale che non tradisce l\u2019essenza autentica degli Amorphis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Alcuni brani emergono con forza particolare:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>\u201c<strong><em>Light and Shadow<\/em><\/strong>\u201d: scelto come singolo, rivela la maestria del gruppo nel forgiare melodie destinate a imprimersi, con tastiere in primo piano e un\u2019aura intensamente evocativa.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\u201c<strong><em>Bones<\/em><\/strong>\u201d: spicca per il contrasto netto, la potenza granitica dei riff e le growl vocals, incarnando il volto pi\u00f9 heavy dell\u2019opera.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\u201c<strong><em>The Strange<\/em><\/strong>\u201d e \u201c<strong><em>Fog to Fog<\/em><\/strong>\u201d: convincono grazie alla variet\u00e0 e al gioco dinamico, con \u201c<strong><em>Fog to Fog<\/em><\/strong>\u201d che esalta maggiormente le chitarre rispetto ad altre tracce.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\u201c<strong><em>Despair<\/em><\/strong>\u201d: conclusione carica di ombre doom e malinconia, suggello emotivo che lascia l\u2019ascoltatore sospeso.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Questi frammenti rivelano come \u201c<em><strong>Borderlan<\/strong>d\u201d<\/em> vada ben oltre la mera raccolta di canzoni: \u00e8 un cammino fra chiaroscuri, un fluire tra slanci di potenza e pause contemplative, orchestrato con misura e intensit\u00e0.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Non tutto brilla senza ombre, inevitabilmente.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>In alcune tracce manca quella scintilla capace di elevare un buon brano a capolavoro: <em>\u201c<strong>Borderland<\/strong>\u201d<\/em>, la title track, risulta meno incisiva, priva di svolte realmente sorprendenti.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Le tastiere, pur splendenti in molti passaggi, a tratti si espandono oltre misura, finendo per oscurare le chitarre e attenuare la forza delle sezioni heavy, soprattutto per chi predilige l\u2019anima pi\u00f9 brutale e chitarristica.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Vi sono canzoni che rivelano il loro pieno valore solo dopo ripetuti ascolti: l\u2019impatto immediato non sempre colpisce, e questo pu\u00f2 risultare un limite per chi si aspetta subito un colpo di fulmine.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">In conclusione, non mancano momenti a tratti prevedibili o meno ispirati, lontani dalle vette che la band \u00e8 stata capace di toccare in passato.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">Tuttavia<em> \u201c<strong>Borderland<\/strong>\u201d<\/em> dimostra come gli Amorphis sappiano ancora reinventarsi pur restando fedeli alla loro anima. La formazione intreccia con maestria melodia, atmosfera e vigore, regalando un disco maturo e ispirato. La presenza di <em><strong>Jacob Hansen<\/strong><\/em> porta una ventata di freschezza e un taglio moderno, donando nuova linfa al loro linguaggio senza snaturarlo: il risultato \u00e8 un suono nitido, potente e al tempo stesso avvolgente, che accompagna l\u2019ascoltatore in un viaggio coerente e affascinante.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">Pur non raggiungendo in ogni istante le altitudini di \u201c<em><strong>Hal<\/strong>o\u201d<\/em>, \u201c<em><strong>Borderland<\/strong>\u201d<\/em> si afferma come il suo naturale erede, capace di custodire i tratti iconici della band e al contempo aprire nuovi scenari. I momenti di grande intensit\u00e0 prevalgono nettamente sulle imperfezioni, e l\u2019album trasmette la sensazione di un gruppo ancora vitale, pronto a sorprendere con la propria arte.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":90,"featured_media":37022,"template":"","class_list":["post-37020","review","type-review","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.1.1 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>[ENG\/ITA] AMORPHIS - Borderland - Heavyworlds.com<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.heavyworlds.com\/it\/review\/eng-amorphis-borderland\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"it_IT\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"[ENG\/ITA] AMORPHIS - Borderland - Heavyworlds.com\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"[ENG] After 35 years of career, Amorphis are ready to catch their breath on familiar yet unexplored ground with Borderland, their fifteenth studio album, set for release on September 26 via Reigning Phoenix Music.
