AMORPHIS‘s “Magic & Mayhem” tour kicks off tonight at Helsinki, Finland’s legendary Tavastia club. Each show will feature special appearances by several former members of the band, including Pekka Kasari, Pasi Koskinen, Olli-Pekka Laine, Kasper Mårtenson, Kim Rantala and Ville Tuomi.
Commented AMORPHIS guitarist Esa Holopainen: “It goes without saying that the ‘Magic & Mayhem’ tour will bring many nostalgic moments, as former AMORPHIS members from throughout the years will be our guests on stage.
“The tour concludes a fantastic year, during which we have celebrated the 20-year career of AMORPHIS in more than one way.
“After New Year’s, we will continue the production of our next album, which we expect to see the light of day in May 2011. Pekka Kainulainen has again written beautiful lyrics, and the new album will be centered around the leading figure of Finnish mythology. Musically, it will again be intense with powerful emotion.”
