AMBERIAN DAWN - Sneak Listen To Early Album Tracks
February 21, 2010, 14 years ago
The classically trained female fronted Finnish outfit AMBERIAN DAWN is in the midst of preparing their third album, yet bassist Tommi Kuri allowed BraveWords.com a new fangled listening session to four unfinished (but definitely Finnish!) tracks. His Nokia cell phone serving as a wireless playback device for a set of old school, over the ears headphones, the Industry day of the Helsinki Metal Meeting drowned out, without the inconvenience of electrical chords. While in the past the band had taken great care in distancing themselves from the original countrymen (and women) who pioneered the operatic singer and symphonically tinged format, a couple of these latest ideas embrace that heritage. Apparently the days of Tarja Turunen fronting NIGHTWISH are enough in the past to warrant any unwanted publicity and there's no one on the horizon of the caliber of Heidi Parviainen. That's not to say that everything heard can be dismissed as a clone, far from it, as the second track (still no definitive titles) was amongst the most aggressive in the young band's repertoire. One was only an instrumental, awaiting vocals. Looking forward to hearing the whole thing!
