justdave's notes:
I ripped the waves with DVD Audio Extractor. I then used Goldwave to adjust some track marks. I also muffled a loud guitar cord pop at the end of a track. No other work was required on the wave files. Even though the DVD is marked as having a lossless sound option, the actual broadcast source is lossy. That being the case the waves were encoded to MP3 320kbps using Trader's Little Helper.

Another great post for our Roots Of Hard Rock & Heavy Metal series. Finnish Progressive Metal Legends Amorphis chose their name correctly. The band was initially a Brutal Death Metal Band called Abhorrence. They released a demo called Disment of Soul before breaking up. Some of the members formed Amorphis a little after. The bands first release was a Melodic Death Metal album. The second album added a twist to the Death Metal with lyrics written based on an ancient Finnish Epic Poem, The Kalevala. They also added clean vocals and keyboards, as well as Finnish Folk rhythms. The band would continue to expand their sound with every album. Eventually dropping the Death Metal elements from their new material. After lead vocalist Pasi Koskinen left and Tomi Joutsen was hired they returned. They kept the clean vocals, keyboards, saxophone and flute as well. The bands still uses The Kalevala for inspiration as well. Amorphis has been a big influence on the Heavy Metal scene, expanding the boundaries of the genre. Think of Amorphis like Opeth but with shorter songs.
