Finland's Amorphis have lined up two dates in Russia in early November. The details are as follows:

Nov. 03 St. Petersburg , RUS - Port Club

Amorphis recently entered the Sonic Pump studios in Helsinki to start the recording process for their follow-up to last year's "Far From The Sun," tentatively due in early 2006. Producers the effort are Nino Laurenne (Thunderstone) for instruments and Marco Hietala (Nightwish) for vocals. Mikko Karmila, who has previously worked with Stratovarius, Nightwish, Edguy, Lullacry and many others, will take care of the mixing.

"The new Amorphis material will be heavier than ever", the band explained in a statement. "There will be an epic theme through the album, influenced by Finnish tradition."
