Amorphis vocalist Tomi Joutsen recently spoke with Hungary's Impact Metal Channel. He discussed the band's latest album, Queen Of Time, and his experience of being the band's frontman since the 2006 album, Eclipse, after replacing Pasi Koskinen in 2004.

Queen Of Time (Nuclear Blast) entered the charts worldwide, including #1 in Finland. In Germany, Finland, France, Switzerland, UK and USA they even improved their chart result of the precursor Under The Red Cloud and in almost every country they had the best ever Amorphis chart entry.

Comments Esa Holopainen:

"Unbelievable to have such an amazing chart entries. Despite the fact that most critics love Queen Of Time, it‘s not obvious that the album is going to sell well, especially at year 2018. Like we‘ve told before, we have the most lovable and loyal fans in the whole universe. Humble THANK YOU to every single person who has bought, streamed or otherwise grabbed Queen Of Time. We put all our sweat and tears into this album so you better believe that the great success of Queen Of Time feels amazing!"
