Finnish melancholic progressive metal band AMORPHIS is set to release its fifteenth studio album, Borderland, on September 26 through Reigning Phoenix Music. The album, a follow-up to 2022’s Halo, was recorded earlier this year at Hansen Studios in Ribe, Denmark, with producer Jacob Hansen.
AMORPHIS guitarist Esa Holopainen comments: “‘Borderland’ is the first AMORPHIS album produced in collaboration with Danish producer Jacob Hansen. Before that, we had made three amazing records at Jens Bogren‘s studio. During the planning phase of the project, we strongly felt that it was time to explore something new and see what working with a different producer might bring to the table!”
As a first introduction to “Borderland”, a new single, “Light And Shadow”, will be released on June 6.
