[edit] History
The history part is my handywork, none of it is copied from anywhere. I've been a personal friend with the musicians of the band since early/mid 80's and thus know for a fact it to be true. I don't know about the verifiability of the early stages, since it is not been discussed anywhere, that I know of anyway. So everything that needs to be clarified, please ask and I will try to do so. --Shrike 17:39, 20 February 2006 (UTC)
- Good work! I've rewritten some of the language in the history section - hopefully it will be a little clearer now. I think the history section needs expanding some more though, and if you know about it personally then that'll be a great help. Perhaps some more on the middle few albums, and what happened about the bad record deal? At the moment there is quite a jump in time. SeventyThree(Talk)
This needs to be changed for the obvious reasons:
- The search for a new frontman proved no easy task. In the end, Amorphis found the right person through word of mouth: Tomi Joutsen (Sinisthra), a powerful, multi-faceted singer with breathtaking on-stage charisma.
I changed the ending to make it sound more professional. Everyone working on music articles, please PLEASE remember that you are not writing an advertisement for the band (unless you are actually someone from the band or record label, in which case don't bother, it will be deleted anyway). Keep the writing neutral and leave soaring adjectives like "powerful", "uncompromising", and such out, or music articles will never get taken seriously here. -Alex
[edit] Amorphis were never doom!
Why nobody can't remind right that amorphis were never doom. They have just doom influences in their early works, but Elegy have definitely nothing to do with doom. I delete doom from this article. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 88.114.144.82 (talk) 10:12, 18 March 2007 (UTC).— 88.114.144.82 (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.
I absolutely agree. Nothingagainst— Nothingagainst (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.
- Yeah, and looking at both edit histories, it appears you 'two' agree on a remarkably similar (almost identical in fact) group of bands. Agreeing with yourself is not a consensus. The Kinslayer 10:10, 5 April 2007 (UTC)
