A helping of doom with a side of death. Pass the folk.














The Karelian Isthmus is the debut album by Amorphis and without a doubt, it stands out of from the rest. I believe the somewhat shoddy production value pulls in their favor giving it a raw and brutal feel. With an absence of clean vocals, ever-descending riffs and prodding of blast beats, you can't listen to this album without banging your head. This album is a great example of the seamless merge of death and doom metal.
