Biography/Discography
Early times Amoral was formed in 2000 by Varon, Karlsson and Ots and their first vocalist was Matti Pitkänen. Pitkänen was substituted by Kalliojärvi initially as a temporary replacement, then as a member of the band. Former band members also include Ville Sorvali from Moonsorrow as a bass player. Before Sorvali joined Amoral the bassist's position was open for a period of time, and the bass track on some of their demos was played by Ots. Amoral released two demos, "Desolation" and "Other Flesh", with varying line-up and played some minor gigs before releasing their first full-length album. Moonsorrow Moonsorrow is a Finnish Viking metal band. ...
Amoral signed with Rage of Achilles records and released their first album, Wound Creations, in 2004. The bankruptcy of Rage of Achilles followed not long after and Amoral was discovered by Spikefarm, a division of Spinefarm, a major Finnish rock and heavy metal record label. Under Spikefarm Records Amoral re-released Wound Creations and added a bonus track ("Metamorphosis" from an early demo) to mark the new release version. The album has received predominantly very positive reviews from metal magazines and webzines around Finland and Europe, and Amoral played numerous gigs following the release and thenceforth. Their rise from the underground metal scene was further benchmarked by a month-long European tour with renowned metal bands Finntroll and Naglfar. Amoral was also lined up for Tuska Open Air Metal Festival 2005, the main heavy metal festival of Finland. Wound Creations is the first full-length album of the death metal band Amoral. ...
