Fronted by powerhouse lyric soprano Heidi Parviainen, the band issued their debut studio long player River of Tuoni in 2008 via Finnish label KHY Suomen Musiikki. Fresh off a successful tour with Epica, the band headed back into the studio and began work on their sophomore outing, 2009's The Clouds of Northland Thunder. After inking a deal with Spinefarm Records the group issued a third studio album, 2010'w End of Eden, followed by Circus Black in 2012, the latter of which was the first Amberian Dawn LP to utilize a full choir, and the last to feature vocalist Parviainen, who left the band shortly after the album's release to pursue other musical projects. 2013's Re-Evolution saw the band rebooting with a set of re-recordings featuring new singer Päivi "Capri" Virkkunen, and 2014's Napalm-issued Magic Forest offered up the first new set of original material from the group with Virkkunen at the helm. Ever prolific, Amberian Dawn wasted little time in getting back to the studio, and released their seventh long player, Innuendo, in the fall of 2015. ~ James Christopher Monger
