Am I Blood
This Finnish band started life under the curious monicker St. Mucus,
releasing a debut album (
Natural Mutation) in 1995 under that
name before switching to Am I Blood a year or two later.
During those early days current
Amorphis
vocalist Pasi Koskinen was the vocalist, leaving one
month before the recording of
Mutation.
Stylewise,
Metallica
is the primary soundalike here,
with Janne Kerminen's vocals being a dead ringer for James Hetfield
and the musical style (crunchy, upbeat hard metal, bordering on
thrash without really being a thrash band) very reminiscient
of mid-period Metallica
circa their black self-titled album.
They've had their share of record label problems
(indeed,
The Truth Inside The Dying Sun was finished in 2001
but languished unreleased for four years due to the record label
folding), resulting in their last couple of albums being self-released.
