I just experienced one of the most depressing low points in 2025 music.
Fans of the older material already know that this band's downfall started a long time ago. "I should have seen it coming" is a line from their song Wrong Direction.
Tales from the Thousand Lakes is one of the best albums from the 1990s. Who knew that one day they would debase themselves with some of the worst 90s influences.
I listened to a song called Light and Shadow. The song played as an ad. That was already horrifying. I thought "they're still using a term like metal, how bad can it be?" It was so abhorrent they couldn't even save it with superficial references to the old stuff.
I hope people really learn something from this monstrosity. You can't just use the word change as a justification. Things can change for the worse, and they have.
From this point forward I'm going to be calling this band Hootie & the Amorphis.
