The Beginning of Times is the tenth studio album by Finnish metal band Amorphis, released on May 25, 2011 in Finland, May 27 in Europe and June 7 in the United States.

The beginning of times" is the tenth studio album by Finnish metal band AMORPHIS, released in 2011. The album had a strong sales debut week, charting at No. 1 on the Finnish Albums Chart and No. 16 on the German Media Control Charts.

On The Beginning Of Times album, the music clearly progresses even more, but not to such desirable levels in all aspects. Various instruments that once were used by the band, such as the flute and percussion, were once again used to establish uniqueness, along with electric attributes joined by cool effects such as strong delays and atmospheric guitar chorus effects. However, The Beginning Of Times shows that it would have been better if Amorphis kept their musical style to what was offered on their earlier release Skyforger, which was a gold mine. On this new release there were some amazing moments that resembled the same atmosphere and feel of the past, and Reformation, You I Need and Beginning Of Times were the proudest examples. The latter is maybe one of the few examples of the band’s modernized aspects working well for them.

Amorphis seem to have prepared The Beginning of Times mostly for those who want a carbon copy of their last three (original) studio releases. This isn't to say that the album falters as much as it slumps, but very little sticks out beyond "Battle for Light" and "My Enemy. A shame too, since they come close to mimicking the bliss found throughout Silent Waters. It's easier to enjoy this album than its inconsistent 2009 predecessor, but a derivative relationship to its siblings makes higher praise tough to submit.
