Yes! The Bee. Guess I can stop requesting it. For some background information: most songs by Amorphis are based on Finnish mythology, this one included. If I remember it right this song is about the mother of a great hero asking the gods to bring her son back to life. They send his soul carried by a bee. Bees are messengers by the gods is also found in Greek myth btw. You guys might also like Amongst Stars by them. If you want less growling in their songs try Brother and Sister from the same album as The Bee.
ackshchually... Pretty close. The mother of the Lemminkäinen (the hero in question) first collects his parts from the river of Tuonela (similar to river Styx in greek mythology) After picking the pieces she sows him back to whole and asks the bees 3 times to get some honey to revive Lemminkäinen. First two times the honey was not powerful enough so then she asks them to get some heavenly honey from over-god Ukko which then succeeded in the revival.
@@FlatBeeF so this song is basically the sequel to Silent Waters?...that's nice to know
@@AgeofJP Yes you can think of it like that, and to be precise, the whole album Silent Waters tells the story of Lemminkäinen until his death.
@@FlatBeeF damn I need to listen through that album again but with lyrics...I love how Amorphis' albums tell a whole story but I only really grasped the full picture of Skyforger and Circle since they are my favorites. I hope I'll find the time soon...
Thanks for the information
Yep most of their songs are based on the Kalevala. Finnish creation poem. Incredible music Incredible artists.
Ohhh... Thank you for reacting to Amorphis 💜
Hugs from Finland
Amorphis one of the best bands ever 🙏🙏🙏🙏
Recommend Amorphis - Amongst Stars. Has a more folksy sound and a female singer that contrasts very nicely to the growling.
Great suggestion as they get to see & hear Anneke van Giersbergen as well.
This was a pleasant surprise! Tomi Joutsen has impressive vocal skills, he do both clean and crawl vocals. For me "Queen of Time" is no.1 metal album that came out last year. 10/10 album. There is also some variation in songs, and for instance 'Wrong Direction' doesn't have crawl vocals at all.
Amorphis has taken much inspiration from finnish epic called Kalevala, tales and folklore from ancient Finland. Their first album came out 1990, so they are seasoned veterans what comes to melodic death metal. Musically big influence for them has been finnish psychedelic rock band Kingston Wall. Sadly lead guitarist/singer committed suicide -94, because that band made really amazing music. Here's a sample, that reminds of The Bee.

i was kid listening Kingston Wall outside of bar because i couldn't go in... great band.
alt land is
more of atlantis
Great reaction, love this song. The best advice I can really give for learning to appreciate the growls is just to realize that all the power there is on your side. Use it, feel it, relate to it and use it for catharsis. After a while it really becomes soothing, as strange as that sounds. Keep on keeping on, and good luck with your journey. Much love.
Oh and the song is probably inspired by the story of Lemminkäinens mother. Lemminkäinen, hero of Kalevala and all around troublemaker, got himself killed, hacked to pieces and thrown in river Tuonela, the river of the Underworld. Lemminkäinens mother wants to save her son and persuades first smith Ilmarinen to make her a rake from copper and then descends to underworld to fish the pieces of her son out of river Tuonela. After finding all the pieces she sews her son back together but is unable to bring him back to life. She begs the bee to ascend to the halls of Ukko and steal a drop of honey. Armed with such a powerful remedy she is finally able to resurrect her son back to life.
Yes, a lot of Amorphis lyrics are really only understood if you know the Kalevala, the Finnish national epos.
Thank you for the backstory! I think I can better see where Kel is onto something there with the different styles of vocals representing different characters - the harsh voices of rough gods and a more angelic chorus of the mother almost casting a sort of spell.
Orphaned Land, a band that plays a very similar style of music, released a concept album about the Biblical flood a few years ago in which the harsh metal vocals were definitely representing the voices of the angels of God delivering warnings to sinful men and unleashing the wrath of God upon the earth, while the "clean" vocals would represent the voices of men and human prophets.
Similarly, there was a folk metal song by Hadjutanc where the harsh vocals delivered lines spoken by an evil king to his victim, while the clean vocals delivered the lines of his victim and and narration.
I think it's a cool effect!
The hammer is actually hammer of Ukko, the big cheese of finnish pagan pantheon. While finnish mythology was heavily influenced by viking mythos (Ukko ~= Odin + Thor by job description) it's its own separate entity. In finnish mythology the bee is considered to be bringer of life. Amorphis is known for making songs that are inspired by stories in finnish national epic Kalevala.
Creislaw wow! Thank you SO much for filling in the blanks! Very Helpful!
Amorphis never disappoints, you should check out Heaven of my heart or silent waters. It all clean vocals on those songs.
I guess they also would love Sampo or Silver Bride
This really is a story 😁 Someone gave really good information about the song. If you wonder, the both style singing is by the same person: Tomi Joutsen. And I can guarantee that he is the best growler in the world. So much power but clear at the same time. I've struggled to like Amorphis for years but this album and this paricular song knocked me out totally. I tuly love this album and went to see them live and tvey ofcourse played The Bee as a starter 🤘
Pure Finnish mythology 🤘
Not really. The bees going in the skulls of Kings is their own invention, not from the Kalevala story, where the bee coming from Heaven is based to. Think it was actually a bumblebee, a more original inhabitant of Finland than the European honebee, which I guess was brought there by people.
Or maybe that king's skull part is told elsewhere in Kalevala, just not in the Lemminkäinen story which is the famous one, and where this song is loosely based upon.
Love these guys, one of the best and most unique bands I've ever heard. Queen of Time was the album of the year for me in 2018, every single song is amazing, this one included
Oh, and I can't wait to see your reaction of Wintersun - Sons of Winter and Stars (live at Sonic Pump Studios please !) #painintheask
10:00 It's Ilmarinen's hammer. He's the blacksmith in Finnish mythology who forged the Sampo, crafted the dome of the sky, etc.
It is Ukon kirves/vasara, Ukko's axe/hammer.
Haha, I was only listening to this album this morning :-) Highly recommend Amongst Stars from the same album.
#painintheask (again!): Unleash the Archers - Apex, which is the final track on their concept album of the same name, or Awakening (which is the one all the other reaction channels seem to do). Hell, do both of them! Both fantastic tracks, anyway.
"The Golden Elk" is fantastic as well. One of my top 5 albums from last year.
Yes!!!! It would be great!
Amorphis - From the Heaven of My Heart
It's all clean vocals and has the most addicting melodies.
Just can' t keep up with you guys, so I just say this - you're the best & thank you.
Amorphis is my favorite band - they are from Finland, - the song is great,the singer is great, -the way he goes from the straight vocal to the harsh vocals- metal isn't for everyone but at least you have an intelligent way of looking at something new
Amongst Stars by Amorphis, absolutely the best song in 2018.
After that pretty much any other song from Amorphis.
Love your channel btw!
You are in the right way👍👍👍👍nice reaction
Thanks! Please, Amorphs, Amongst Stars!
This song is the first time I have ever gotten goosebumps by growling. You can even understand what he is singing about
You are having a crash course in metal growth it took me years develop. I noticed immediately that you are quite visual and then you described the story unfolding. Your open-mindedness will lead you down some great metal paths, I have no doubt. Rich, I think you will also be getting some new, fresh ideas as those who follow many of the reaction channels have great suggestions. This is great stuff. If I may, since Iron Maiden seems to be a band you both enjoy, Infinite Dreams has yet to be done on any of these reaction channels despite tons of suggestions.
Great song and reaction..
Insomnium - while we sleep
Next please
Amorphis! aha love it! GOOD CHOICE DEALLYRA!
Thanks 💜
I Love Amorphis and Tomi's voice
Fuck yes you better believe I sung and growled along! ✊🏻🖤🖤
Your channel is so special. Became an instant addiction to me. I really love these emotional reactions. Thank you so much! :)
Some suggestions: #PainInTheAsk
The Gathering - Eleanor
Evergrey - Weightless
Katatonia - The longest year
Anathema - One last goodbye
Hallo Welt thank you so much for your precious comments and encouragement. We are so glad you are here with us.
Keep up the #PainInTheAsk s and they will happen 😉
Amorphis' lyrics are often based on mythology, particularly Kalevala (national epic of Finland, also inspired J.R.R. Tolkien while he was writing The Lord of the Rings and Silmarillion). So all their songs do indeed tell a story :)
I have a hat like that - never wear it, but I should (y)
Hahaha, at least I didn’t get a ‘eat me’ for the Fez comment!! :))
Keep being you mate!!! Bow ties are cool!! See ya next reaction !!
Have to agree a lot with Kel..I have the same attitude to growl...but I try to learn..but Tomi has a stunning voice with the growl and singing
For most harsh growls are an acquired taste. Like strong chillies or surströmming. Or Thomas Jane / Joe Miller impersonators.
Let's get Btbam up in here! "White Walls!
Please React to "Sonata Arctica - Letter to Dana" ... A Awesome Band from Finland! Thuomas from Nightwish are a Good Friend of the Bandmembers!
Her ghost in the fog - Cradle of filth
Have you heard INSOMNIUM? If not you must check them out
Hell yeah mighty Amorphis from Finland :). Chechk out Death of a King and Amongst Stars by them. Then we’ll talk more. They have plenty of good songs with clean vocals only, if you’re not familiar with the harsh vocals.
These guys remind me of Scar Symmetry with the dual clean/growl vox. Or Solution .45. Christian Ålvestam (their singer) is a beast.
Please do more Amorphis!
Listen cathedral walls from swallow the sun
Check out "The Piper Never Dies" by Edguy. Such a beautiful and epic power metal song

These storys ispirated one young boy from england to write most known literature in the world. Lord of the rings.
Ancient Bards - Impious Dystopia
Screaming and growling is like a cold shower. Initially you get really defensive and shocked, negativity, etc. When you slowly start to embrace it you start to feel to power and strength. It's quite an uplifting and empowering feeling. You kind of have to internalize the anger that is voiced with it and make it your own, so that you feel the rage aswell. The singer is so to speak your angry companion. Best I could come up with to explain
Nagging you again with Constantine - The darkest grace 😃
i am a pretty big fan of AMORPHIS . I love the forever changing of sound within and between the many songs. They do not have a one style sound check out their song Goddess of the Sad Man
#painintheask thank you scientist - blood on the radio
Its Ukkos hammer...
definitely check out more of #Amorphis alone, goddess of the sad man, higher ground are some really good ones. Also at some point they have different vocalist
I love to see Kel react to TYPE O NEGATIVE :) ....i can imagine her reaction,when seh first hear PETER STEELE :) ....i know a lot of women,who get a eargasm listening to his voice...beside his optic......sadly already dead.....
Some people say that growling/screaming voice is harder to make than clean singing. And it was not Odin Hammer it was Ukonvasara. Same kind symbols.
This is not straight based on the story of Lemmikäinen's death as the song "Silent Waters" is. Rather that in Finnish mythology a bee is seen a healer and a life giver. I guees here you could see also the circle of life; skulls of the dead kings and the bees bring life in to them... Amorphis song are usually based on Finnish mythology and the Finnish national Epic Kalevala
From the Finnish Epic of Kalevala;
"Honey-bee, thou ether birdling,
Fly a third time on thy journey,
Fly away to high Jumala,
Fly thou to the seventh heaven,
Honey there thou'lt find abundant,
Balsam of the highest virtue,
Only used by the Creator,
Only made from the breath of Ukko.
God anoints his faithful children,
With the honey of his wisdom,
When they feel the pangs of sorrow,
When they meet the powers of evil.
Dip thy winglets in this honey,
Steep thy plumage in His sweetness,
Hither bring the all-sufficient
Balsam of the great Creator;
This will still my hero's anguish,
This will heal his wounded tissues,
This restore his long-lost vision,
Make the Northland hills re-echo
With the magic of his singing,
With his wonderful enchantment."
As you mentioned liking galloping rythms and charging towards death, I must insist and recomend one of the most epic songs ever:
Kamelot - Center of the Universe
The album name is Epica (what more you could ask!) and is a concept album based on the story of Goethe's Faust.
Center of the Universe is the opening song of the album.
Epic galloping battle rythm you want? This song will put you wings and a flaming sword in your hand.
Amorphis effect, no words
Please do Devin Townsend - grace ( the retinal circus) promo video. Insane song. You're welcome! Lol love the vids.
Hey Guys ....lets bring back Porcupine Tree. 1. Trains 2. Way out of here (live version) 3. Start of something beautiful 4. Sound of Muzak #painintheask
#painintheask Amorphis - Message In The Amber. It's sweet. :)
#Sabaton - The Last Stand ... this is a band that tells a story in every song.. and it's historically accurate. You really need to check them out. I'm from Centurion, South Africa
Could you react to some "Thy Row - The Round". It's kind of a classic rock with a little bit of heavy elements. :)
Please react To their Amongst Stars next, it's awesome :)
If you like songs with a story I would like to suggest you listen to Haggard, maby starting with Chapter I: Tales of Ithiria. It's the best mix of instruments and styles I've heard
Check out THE SINS OF THY BELOVED...one of the strongest Beauty and the Beast Vocals ever in Metal History....
watch / Listen to Angel Wolf-Black - Forgiven (Within Temptation Cover) #painintheask
Amorphis :Land of 1000 Lakes,one of the Best Scandinavian Metal Albums ever made !
@Marko L en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scandinavia
It depends on which person or institution you ask,but anyway,Amorphis is a grat Band.
Please check out "The Great Escape" by Seventh Wonder, you won't regret it!!!
#PainInTheAsk
SynlakrosS - Wish I Had An Angel
I will never give up until ye've heard the best melodic death metal cover of one of Nightwish's best songs. 🤘🎶
#Hypocrisy Apocalypse Colorado This was the 1st metal song I've heard that mixes in the Gregorian monks chanting, a very sombre aetherial, beautiful, dark & heavy otherworldly grind.
It may be time for Draconian, the dichotomy of clean female vocals and male growls exemplify the beauty and the darkness of their tortured duets. Dishearten, Death Come Near Me, The Drowning Age, or Deadlight. #PainInTheAsk
More Amorphis
#MetalChickPick AMORPHIS - Her Alone!! 🖤

Dream Theater: Lifting shadows off a dream
Type O Negative: Wolf Moon
Tiamat: Phantasma de Luxe
Anyone of those would make me happy.
To me this album is a masterpiece and this song is the weakest one of that album but it's still awesome. The song Amongst stars..., think you will like that one more.

Please listen to Persefone - Prison Skin !
#painintheask Galloping rhythms while riding towards your glorious death?
Rhapsody of Fire - Dawn of Victory
Should be right down your alley. Live version preferred ✌️
I think you should try "Amongst Stars" (feat. Floor Jansen of Nightwish).
And please react to "Ayreon - The day that the world comes down". 😍
I think you got Anneke Van Giersbergen mixed up with Floor Jansen..
amorphis: Winter's Sleep, Come the spring and Under the red cloud
Or react to Amon Amarth new song: Raven's Flight
#Painintheask
Down-Nothing in Return
So the hammer your seeing is Mjolnir which is Thor's hammer which is Norse not Celtic. Amorphis is from Finland and their music is more folk oriented metal. The growls usually illustrate the darkness of the lyrics so it is necessary to a point. I hope that you can come to terms with it 'cause Amorphis is an amazing and under-appreciated band that needs your love. Anyways, peace! \m/
You can tell she hates harsh vocals by the way she smiles wehem tommy changes to clean ones
OK,you are now in the Growl Corner :) .....time for DIMMU BORGIR/ROTTING CHRIST/SEPTIC FLESH.....all are from the BLACK METAL Genre,BUT....they use Choirs and Orchestras to create their BOMBASTIC SYMPHONIC BLACK METAL Sound.....
I love Amorphis, but there would have been a large number of better songs to chose from.
The Lost Name of God
A Black Winter Day
This is unique in so many ways. And if you don't like - that's ok,of course. It's metal, but definitely not typical. Very experimental.
I like it... I simply prefer their older material...
I do get you guys are more with singing stuff but there's ppl who can do incredible things with growling, screaming like Bloodred Hourglass vocalist. U can try same...u will fail ;)
# neobliviscaris
It's Thor's hammer and it's not Celtic, it's Norse mythology.
good song... but take it from me... Bruce Dickinson.... it could have used a little more cowbell.... Now I'm just a musician who puts his pants on one leg at a time like the rest of you, but when I do.... I make gold records... so listen to me... Bruce Dickinson.... MORE cowbell
Had to stop it sorry not my thing too pop-ish for my taste oh well
