Amorphis
The essence of Amorphis since time immemorial has been development. They needed barely a few years to leap from irreverent death metal into explorations closer to progressive and folk regions. They have changed many times, never fitting into drawers, and bravado is their middle name. Today, the components of the Finns' style are both the majesty of deathmetal heaviness and the complexity of prog rock. The band wraps all these elements in powerful melodies, on the basis of which whole numbers are built. Songwriting and ambition? By all means. From the very beginning, Esa Holopainen perfectly executes any vision he comes up with.
Sólstafir
When they released "Ótta" nine years ago, they caught the attention of the entire metal world. Nearly a decade has passed, but they haven't lost their earned status for a moment. This is not surprising, as the Icelandic quartet offers something good for everyone. They have a post-metal penchant for long-form, yet classically Nordic melodies or influences from the throngs from Fields of the Nephilim via Kraftwerk or Darkthrone. When they played in Poland recently (along with Katatonia), Warsaw's Stodoła was bursting at the seams. Not every artist can claim similar credit.

Lost Society
They were thrash-metal warriors in denim katanas, but over time they switched to an ultra-precise marriage of groove metal and metalcore. Now they're more introspective and dare to talk about intimate experiences. On last year's "If the Sky Came Down" there are a lot of singing parts, but also screaming straight from the gut, because if life is pounding on your head, silence is hard to come by. Who among us hasn't been to this place? Lost Society have been, which is why their personal messages are a noteworthy thing. Because they tell the story of everyone's experiences.
