 ... one of the more memorable and certainly the most accessible of the previous full-length 'Tales from the Thousand Lakes.' It showcases pretty much everything Amorphis was about in the early days, though without the harsher side that's thankfully rekindled for a last outing in the later tracks here, but it fares less well when separated from the album in this way. It's commendable that the band didn't simply fill the remainder of this E.P. with further 'Tales' material or tedious re-mixes, but the original material o...more

Bonus DVD, Some songs are excellent, Bonus tracks - Joey and The Distance Lacks Bon Jovi PassionSome of these songs should never be touched

Some great heavy metal, A wide range of styles, Value for money Rushed and unnecessaryOnly draws from 3 albumsSome very dodgy tracks
