Really good again. In fact, my favorite album from 2025. These guys refuse to age.

전작보다 못하다는 데 동의한다. 꽤나 말랑해진 사운드도 이질감을 느끼게 하지만, 오히려 듣기 편한면이 있기도 하다. Not bad

전작의 기대감이 컸던 것도 있겠지만 조금 어정쩡한 앨범이 나와버렸다. 단순히 클린 보컬이 늘어서가 아니고 뭔가 컨셉이 분명하지 않은...곡 사이의 차이가 별로 없이 비슷비슷한 느낌이다. 귀에 확 꽂히는 곡이 없는 것도 문제.

음... 나는 별로던데... 일단 이들의 전매특허인 토속적(?) 멜로디는 여전하긴 한데 전작들보다 못한 수준이다. 밑에 분들께서 말씀하신대로 클린보컬의 비중이 많아진것도 있지만 멜로디 자체가 진부하다보니 곡들에 이입이 잘 되지 않는다. Silent waters와 비슷한 앨범커버이지만 멜로디나 구성면에서는 퇴보한 앨범. 평작 수준이나 계속 들을 것 같지는 않다.

An exceptional album. Blending progressive metal with melodic death metal, and even flirting with folk elements, "Borderland" is one of the best albums of 2025.

Amorphis na albume "Borderland" ponúkajú svoje typickú a ľahko poznateľnú kombináciu Prog./Doom Metal -u s prvkami Gothic. Nosným prvkom sú ako vždy originálne klávesové a gitarové prvky a kvalitný spev so striedaním melodických liniek a growlingu. Kvalitu albumu podporuje kvalitná rytmika.

아직 몇번 정주행 못 했지만 앨범 커버만 보고 Silent Waters 느낌이 날꺼같았는데 역시나 Silent Waters 연장선 느낌이였고 The Beginning of Times의 멜로디 느낌도 났다 다만 살짝아쉬운점은 그로울링이 줄었다는점? 클린보컬이 그로울링보다 살짝 많아 보였다는게 좀아쉬웠다 좀 더 들어본다면 얘기는 달라질수 있겠다 킬링트랙 Tempest 베스트트랙 Light and Shadow
