Amorphis and Soilwork

After the amazing new release of Amorphis, I was really stoked to see them live. So when the tour with Soilwork, Jinjer and Nailed to Obscurity was announced, I obviously had to go. Unfortunately I could only catch Soilwork and Amorphis, but you should also check out the other bands, they both released some awesome new music this year.

Soilwork started just after I got inside with the intro track of their newest album, which only came out a day before the show. After the intro ended, the band came on and kicked in with the first single of that album, Arrival. I absolutely love the blast beats and guitar leads that carry this track, as well as the vocal melodies in the chorus. This was such an epic track to start the show with, it immediately set a great mood for the rest of their performance. Unfortunately, the mixing of the live sound wasn’t what I hoped it would be. Vocals and guitar leads were often lost in the mix, which is a shame, because when you could hear them well, they sounded really good. I also thought this was the case with the set of Amorphis, but I’ll get into that later. I wasn’t that familiar with Soilwork’s music, yet they convinced me to listen to them more and I think that is everything I could’ve asked for.

Like Soilwork, Amorphis also started with the opening track of their latest album, The Bee, which instantly gave me so much energy by the great build-up with a synth lead and a choir in the background, after which it hits you with a wall of guitars, drums and the brutal growls of Tomi Joutsen. I already got into the great vocal abilities of him in my review of Queen of Time and likewise, he pulls this off amazingly on stage. The other band members were incredible as well, the songs were played really tight and they all looked like they had great fun playing on stage. This translated well to the crowd, as everyone seemed to have a wonderful time, like I did as well.

A highlight of the show was definitely the song Heart of the Giant. The epic sounding string and guitar section at the beginning and about three quarters into the song works great in a live setting. Also I really loved the synth solo by keyboardist Santeri Kallio on this track. As I only discovered Amorphis when they released their newest album, I hadn’t heard a lot of their older projects. Fortunately for me, they played a lot of songs of their last two albums, so I knew a big part of the setlist. Songs I wasn’t yet familiar with like Sky is Mine and House of Sleep sounded great too and I’m definitely starting to go through their back catalogue because of that. Especially Sky is Mine had a nice live-touch to it, since they played it a little bit faster than on the record.

One thing I was somewhat disappointed by was the live mixing. While a song like Message in Amber did sound great, it underwhelmed me a bit. The album version has a lot going on, which makes it an outstanding track for me, yet the live version didn’t capture this that well. Some things were lost in the mix or weren’t that prominent. Also, like with Soilwork, some lead guitar and vocal parts were a little too low. I’m not saying it was bad, it just could’ve been better, especially for a band like this whose performance is phenomenal.

If you haven’t already, you should really see them live. If you’re lucky you may even catch them on this tour, because the supporting bands are all amazing too. Overall I thought it was an incredible show, although I would love to see them again with a better live mixing so they can really blow me away.

This lineup was pretty great. We unfortunately missed most of Nailed to Obscurity due to travel time from outside of Stockholm, but we did catch the end of their set and they sounded great.

Jinjer was a fun live band even if I'm not hugely into their music. The whole band is talented, but their bassist and vocalist stole the show for me.

Soilwork I've never been that into, but Verkligheten is a great record and that material was super electric. The band was tight and happy to be playing to sold out crowd on a Tuesday night in Stockholm. There was a lot of love going on there between the band and the crowd and that was super fun to watch.

Amorphis was awesome, as well. The last time I saw them was in 2000 when they were supporting Tuonela. And I can say that this was a much tougher show than I remember them playing 18 years ago. Tomi is a fantastic vocalist with great presence. And while the band is on the more stationary side, the music is so engaging that the crowd really just steals the show. The setlist was a good cover of newer stuff, but I would've loved to hear something from Tuonela or Elegy. Or also Silent Waters, which I think is a criminally underrated record. Still, though, no complaints.

The show was great and the vibe was pretty electric at times. It's the second time I've seen seriously electric shows at Fryshuset. When bands make _do_ make it to Stockholm, it's pretty fun.

The Finnish band Amorphis has been making music for 30 years, the Headliner who came after them was Delain; a Dutch symphonic metal band. While they are a great band, they are very commercial in Europe, which is why they headlined with only a fraction of the background in experience, time and collection of music in the business. Amorphis played fantastic! This was the first time I finally got to see them, I've had tickets for a year. Their mixer did a great job of not letting one instrument or mic overpower the performance...you could hear everything. Amorphis' music has changed many times through the years, but they have finally struck a great balance with current singer Tomi; death growls blended with great melodic vocals! Their last 3-4 albums are fantastic and they are getting better with every new album. You can't go wrong with Queen of Time. Their opener last night was, The Bee, awesome song! The topped off the show with , Among Stars, accompanied by female vocalist Anneke Von Giersbergen, sporting her angelic voice in this awesome song. I've turned many friends onto Amophis over the years, so Spotify or Pandorum them up if you haven't done so and be prepared to be impressed with this unconventional band...listen to them well and I guarantee you'll become a fan!

Standing imposingly on stage, dressed head to toe in black with tattoos covering every available surface of their bodies and the lead singer’s dreads being whipped around so ferociously and at such a fast pace I was scared his head was about to fall off… it’s safe to say I was a little intimidated of Amorphis. This six piece band are no laughing matter: six giant blokes with hair longer than mine and voices so low and powerful that they barely seemed real. However, they were real. Real good. Heavy metal fans proceed. All others, proceed with caution. Encompassing several genres, from death to folk metal, I had never heard anything the likes of this band before. Their unique folk twist, derived from Finnish folk stories and legends, added another dimension to the heavy metal. The lyrics were often terrifying and aggressive yet oddly captivating: the band often use the Kalevala, the Epic Poem of their home country Finland, as source material for their lyrics. Amorphis played a number of heavy metal hits, but the stand out tunes were ‘Better Unborn’ which possessed an almost middle eastern tune at the beginning, and ‘Silent Waters’ which had the entire crowd screaming along for more.

Amorphis is a Finnish band that was formed in the year 1990 by Jan Rechberger, Tomi Koivusaari, and Esa Holopainen. They perform a wide variety of music that is categorized as metal, ranging from death, progressive and folk metal. They are mainly classified as a Heavy Metal band though. They have released 11 studio albums and counting since their creating in 1990. I had the chance to watch them perform at the Rock Hard Festival in the year 2011 in Rockpalast, Germany. I took up this opportunity and I am sure glad I did. They concert was performed at an outdoor venue. They didn't use any props but they had some visuals such as lights and they used smoke. A very large audience showed up to greet this amazingly talented band. The band met everyone's expectations by performing passionately and interacting with the audience at any moment that seemed fitting. The atmosphere that was created at this performance was fantastic. I had never had so much fun before this concert and I absolutely can not wait until I am given another opportunity to watch this band perform again. I would recommend that anyone who has a chance to watch this band should take that chance. It will be money well spent!

Geil!!! Habe Amorphis vor 5 Jahren das letzte mal mit der "circle"-Tour hier gesehen und bin treuer fan seit über 20 Jahren. Damals wie heute live eine großartige, überwältigende Bank (sic!). Entertainment auf den Punkt, die Musiker sind top aufeinander eingespielt und die Lieder wirken live stets anders als auf den Alben. Sehr fresh! Hervorzuheben ist natürlich die unglaubliche Bühnenpräsenz von Sänger Tomi, aber die Spielfreude und ultrapositive Stimmung aller Musiker unter einander ließ den Funken schnell auf die komplette Garage überspringen. Die Vorbands waren nailed to obscurity, jinjer und soilwork. NTO gefielen mir mit ihrem an my dying bride angelehnten Sound. Jinjer bediente eher schräge Geschmäcker (m.E. gab es zu viel Schlagzeug-Gekloppe), der Deathrock von soilwork bewegte sich, mit manchen Längen allerdings, im Spannungsfeld von Alice in chains und depeche mode(!!!). Ein guter Abend mit tollem Entertainment.

Great evening. The first three bands were good but the sound (especially on vocals) was very low. Second band, Damnus I think, had issues with their guitar, but live environment, shit is bound to happen. They still did awesome.

Anneke was EXCELLENT, her voice continues to be incredibly good, the choice of songs was fantastic and she was very interactive with the crowd. Loved her.

Amorphis crushed it, excellent choice of songs, they sounded great and they knew how to pump the crowd up. Definitely worth the wait after the cancellation in 2017. Hope more European bands continue to come to Ottawa. We crave Metal.

One of the best shows I have EVER seen. So much energy and the sound was great. In a word,"Awesome!" Amorphis has been a favorite of mine for over twenty years. I finally got to see them. They did one hell of a job. Swallow the Sun was a good choice for touring with. They put on a great show as well.

This was one hell of a show. The sound was great and the set list had the perfect blend of classics and new songs. If you have the chance to go do not miss it. The songs were played to perfection and you get a solid 90 minutes.

This is one of the best bands you can see. Amazing sound along with an amazing setlist. These guys keep putting out great album after album. If you have the chance do not hesitate to go see them.

European tour announced

Published on 16.05.2023

AMORPHIS – announce »Halo European Tour« for fall 2023 with special guest SÓLSTAFIR and LOST SOCIETY as support band!

Following an extensive co-headline tour with ELUVEITIE in Europe last year, Finnish metal icons AMORPHIS are ready to hit the road again visiting some cities and countries they didn’t at the end of 2022. Today, the band is proud to announce their »Halo European Tour 2023« alongside with Icelandic metal institution SÓLSTAFIR as special guest and Finnish modern metallers LOST SOCIETY as opener.

AMORPHIS ‘s Esa Holopainen states: “We are happy to announce the 2nd leg of the AMORPHIS » Halo « European tour which starts this October. This time we cover countries and cities where it was not possible for us to go last year. The tour line-up is absolutely great. We will bring along our Icelandic friends SÓLSTAFIR and our country fellows LOST SOCIETY. Looking forward to see our beloved fans again across EU.”

Icelandic metal cowboys SÓLSTAFIR enthuse: “Since our debut show in Helsinki back in 2004, we have had a great love relationship with Finland, and discovering AMORPHIS a decade before with their great » Tales From The Thousand Lakes « album and watching them grow over the years, we are super pleased to hit the road with Finland’s finest metal act. This tour was written in the stars.”

LOST SOCIETY ‘s front-man Samy Elbanna concludes: “It’s been a long time coming – and now we are finally able to announce that we’ll be joining our brothers in AMORPHIS on their huge European tour! We can’t wait to visit a lot of places we’ve never been to before and to bring our massive #IfTheSkyCameDown show to you ALL. Get your tickets and prepare yourselves for LOST SOCIETY.”

Rock and metal music have always been a haven for those who have bigger stories to tell; who have grander emotions to convey. For more than thirty years, Finnish figureheads AMORPHIS have done their best to carve their very own niche in heartfelt yet aggressive, melancholic yet soothing tunes. On »Halo« (which charted on #1 of the Finnish and #3 of the German album chart), their staggering fourteenth studio effort, the Finns underline their trailblazing status as one of the most original, culturally relevant and rewarding acts ever to emerge from the land of the thousand lakes.

Thirty-one years after their inception, with uncounted global tours under their belt and fourteen albums deep in their career, AMORPHIS still prove to be the musical fountain of youth, an extraordinary band constantly reinventing itself without abandoning its mystical roots. With »Halo« , they delivered an astonishing album that deserves to be played everywhere, transcending the realms of metal and rock by its sheer profoundness and musicality.

Tiny Desk Concert: Ne-Yo

Bobby Carter

There's nothing like hearing the oohs and aahs from the Tiny Desk audience when a recognizable note hits the soul. Ne-Yo 's setlist stoked up audible gasps with nonstop hits from his catalog and a few he's written for megastars. He came draped in a bedazzled outfit and his signature fedora (one we had to ask him to adjust to see his eyes.) Not to be outdone, the band came outfitted in matching earth tones and sounded just as good as they looked.

As with most artists who've spent years on the radio, the charts and in the club, the challenge in our space is encapsulating those moments. He accepted this challenge by putting together a medley of some of his most celebrated jams, showing off just how prolific his pen is. "I've written a couple songs since I've been doing this thang," the singer said before passing Rihanna 's "Take a Bow" to background singer, Pamela Westbrook. Before the premiere of his "confessional," the song "Two Million Secrets," the singer reminded us that he also wrote Beyoncé 's "Irreplaceable" and co-wrote Mario's "Let Me Love You." He shared with us that there was a healthy dose of nerves during his set, but — forever the showman — Ne-Yo gave the ladies what they came for closing with "Miss Independent."

Could taylor swift be adding a tortured poets department portion to the eras tour setlist, share this article.

Taylor Swift’s new album, The Tortured Poets Department , has been breaking records left and right. It was the most streamed album in a single day, the first single — “Fortnight” (feat. Post Malone) — set a single-day record and the album became the first to earn one billion streams in a week .

Now concert goers might be able to hear Swift perform some of the songs live on the European leg of her mega popular Eras Tour as some fans are theorizing about changes to the setlist.

In a YouTube Shorts video posted to Swift’s channel and Instagram story, the 14-time Grammy winner is seen rehearsing for her first Paris show, which is on Thursday, May 9. Immediately, Swifties noticed a few outfits and set pieces that looked new to the show.

In one clip, you can see backup dancers with hats and sticks, something that didn’t appear in the previous Eras Tour iterations.

OMG look at the backup dancers this is definitely a new song 😭 pic.twitter.com/hUby8L2Fo1 — mo (@everlikeme) April 25, 2024

In another, Swift appears to be standing against a railing. Nothing new, right? She could just be practicing for her performance of “The Man.” But if you look closer, it seems as though the Tortured Poets logo is in what seems to be a bed frame.

There is also the fact that in the shot with the bed frame, Swift appears to be wearing booties similar to what she wore in the “Fortnight” music video.

The Fortnight booties?!?! Oh Taylor Swift I love you, it's ruining my life 🤍 pic.twitter.com/pG2dCXsQSy — 🪶Nicole⸆⸉ ISO🤍Indy🪶N1/N2 (@13LongLiveMagic) April 25, 2024

It’ll be a little under a fortnight until we find out what — if any — changes are made to the Eras Tour setlist, but it’s fun to hypothesize until then.

Sum 41 goes out on top at sold-out Milwaukee stop of farewell tour at the Rave

Is anyone actually buying the “farewell” that Sum 41 is selling?

OK, sure, a lot of people are literally buying it. The Canadian pop-punk veterans’ “Tour of the Setting Sum” farewell run came to the Rave’s Eagles Ballroom Saturday for one of the first stops, and the 3,500-person capacity venue was a sellout.

But let’s do the math. No one in Sum 41 is over 50. The Mötley Crüe guys are headlining Summerfest this June after bringing a “farewell tour” to the Big Gig a decade ago, and an 81-year-old Barry Manilow will play a final Milwaukee show at Fiserv Forum in August nine years after he seemingly played a final Milwaukee show.

It's hard to accept that Sum 41 is really leaving all of this behind, especially right now. Pop-punk is fueling a new generation of rising stars. Blink-182's classic lineup is back (and playing Fiserv Forum August 7), Green Day is headlining stadiums (including American Family Field Aug. 24), and Milwaukee will host not one but two Warped Tour-style festivals this summer: Sad Summer Festival at the Rave, and the Not Just a Phase Fest at Franklin Field.

But if the Eagles Ballroom show was really Milwaukee's last chance to see Sum 41, they showed they're going out at the top of their game.

This amped-up capacity crowd hardly needed any motivation, but Sum 41 kicked off their hour-and-45-minute set with "Motivation" anyway, the first song off first album "All Killer No Filler" from 2001, with wired frontman Deryck Whibley cruising the stage while lasers and lighting worked overtime. In a delightful detour from the recording, guitarists Dave Baksh and Tom Thacker, drummer Frank Zummo and bassist Jason McCaslin offered a dense and tense instrumental thrash break, the band's distinctive, metal-flexing tendencies later getting a full workout for 2004's "We're All To Blame."

From "Motivation" Sum 41 segued into "The Hell Song" from 2002 sophomore album "Does This Look Infected?," with Whibley heating up the crowd with a breathless, 15-second vocal note, followed by Baksh's gnarly guitar solo, adding gas to the flames. The momentum continued with another "Infected" track, "Over My Head (Better Off Dead)" — the crowdsurfing and circle pits intensifying as smoke and confetti were added to the effects arsenal — followed by 2004's "No Reason," where Zummo really let his drum assaults rip.

The 2007 anthem "Underclass Hero" came right after, with oversized balloons bouncing atop jumping bodies in the pit — and Whibley popping a few with the tail end of his handheld mic. The band's cacophonous sound silenced so the fans could triumphantly belt out the final chorus alone: "'Cause we won't give you control/And we don't need anything from you."

During "Hero" Whibley rightly suggested this night wasn't just a celebration of Sum 41's nearly 30-year run but also "a celebration of yourselves." The crowd's passion matched the band's Saturday and was more powerful than all of the production's bells and whistles.

When the band started 2007's "Walking Disaster," the lights on the phones were so bright, the stage lights stayed off and the band was still fully illuminated. Even after Whibley suggested everyone needed to take a breather after an intense first 23 minutes, followed by the comparatively slower 2004 song "Some Say," some fans still couldn't resist moshing before the end. And "Dopamine," "Landmines" and "Rise Up" from the four-week-old "Heaven :x: Hell" album received boisterous singalongs typically reserved for longtime setlist standards. (It helps that those tracks are as invigorating as anything from across Sum 41's catalogue.)

When the most prized setlist standards did actually come near the end — "Fat Lip" accompanied by a storm of confetti, an equally electric "Still Waiting" initially sans any fancy stage enhancements — the crowd really went wild. Their biggest hit "In Too Deep" was a deeply satisfying finale — except it turned out it really wasn't the end.

Two minutes after the house lights came on, the outro music played on the speakers and about half of the crowd had left, Whibley and Thacker came back on stage — prompting fans at the staircases to sprint back to the ballroom floor. And as Thacker gently played keys, Whibley offered a sweet and calm farewell in the form of 2007's "So Long Goodbye" — with Baksh, McCaslin and Zummo coming out after a few minutes to give the song an adrenaline-pumping speed punk finish.

It was probably the best moment from a night full of memorable ones. But there was one moment fans definitely didn’t like: when Whibley referred to “Heaven :x: Hell” as the band’s final album, prompting a roar of booing.

“Ladies and gentlemen," Whibley replied cooly, "I can’t get enough of your boos."

Call it denial if you want, but a comment like that, combined with a show like this one, makes me firmly believe that Sum 41's "farewell" isn't going to stick. And the fans, clearly, would be just fine with that.

5 takeaways from Sum 41's Milwaukee concert, including openers the Interrupters and Joey Valence & Brae

• As people walked into the show they were given yellow pieces of paper that read “No Moshing.” Naturally this crowd didn’t comply, especially with Whibley demanding a mosh circle open up just two songs into the set. But shortly after that he also told people to be safe and look after each other, and by the look of things from the balcony, the crowd complied in that regard.
• At one point Whibley said he was bringing out a special guest, which turned out to be a guitar he's named "White Gold." It's a guitar that recently joined his collection, but it was actually used in the recording of one of his favorite albums by one of his favorite bands, 1996's "White Light, White Heat, White Trash" by Social Distortion. In their honor, Whibley played White Gold for a cover of "Ring of Fire" in the mode of Social Distortion's signature cover. (Social Distortion, by the way, is heading to the Rave's Eagles Ballroom with Bad Religion on May 14.)
• Sum 41 offered one other cover Saturday, of Queen's "We Will Rock You," initially distinguished by Thacker's speedy showboating on guitar — until Whibley guided the crowd to get quiet and crouch down before the climax, with the band's sound and fans (literally) rising up together for a mosh-friendly finale.
• Primary opener the Interrupters were essentially motivational speakers set to ska music, with the always-moving Aimee Allen, with a Joan Jett-style snarl, singing about not being pushed aside for “Take Back The Power,” living “like a warrior” on “Title Holder,” and being “easy on yourself” for “Easy on You.” She even offered gratitude for her heartbreak on “Afterthought.” The energy and uplift easily won over the Sum 41 fans, but just to make sure they had their full support, the Interrupters also offered a trombone-blaring cover of Billie Eilish’s “Bad Guy” and a bit of “Blister in the Sun” in honor of Milwaukee rock heroes the Violent Femmes.
• Joey Valence & Brae kicked off the night with a blast from the past, with originals like “Crank It Up,” “Drop!!” and “Punk Tactics” that are blatant rip-offs of Beastie Boys, but still pretty fun live. And the duo’s more hyperpop-leaning “Gumdrop” illustrated where they could take their act next.

Sum 41's Eagles Ballroom setlist

• "Motivation"
• "The Hell Song"
• "Over My Head (Better Off Dead)"
• "No Reason"
• "Underclass Hero"
• "Landmines"
• "We're All To Blame"
• "Walking Disaster"
• "Makes No Difference"
• "My Direction"/"No Brains"/"All Messed Up"
• "Preparasi a salire"
• "We Will Rock You" (Queen cover)
• "Ring of Fire" (cover of song popularized by Johnny Cash)

• "Waiting On a Twist of Fate"
• "In Too Deep"
• "So Long Goodbye"

Taylor Swift gives massive Eras Tour setlist hint as she releases new Youtube teaser

Taylor Swift is preparing for the next leg of the Eras Tour, and it includes a few new songs.

The pop icon released her 11th studio album, The Tortured Poets Department , last week, and fans have had mixed reactions .

While fans are making their way through the 17-song album (along with its 15 additional tracks), Taylor is rehearsing for the European stops on her tour.

The 34-year-old posted a montage on Youtube Shorts of her rehearsing for her show in Paris, which starts on May 9. In the caption, she said: "A fortnight til Paris/ Brought to you by Youtube Shorts #ForAFortnightChallenge."

She's seen in the clips singing and dancing around a makeshift stage. During one section, she's leaning against a sign that has the initials TTPD.

Fans have turned to X to speculate which songs will be added to the show. One user thinks they've cracked the code, as Apple Music has added certain songs to the Taylor Swift Essentials playlist.

The songs that have been added are: My Boy Only Breaks His Favorite Toys, Down Bad, I Can Do It With A Broken Heart, But Daddy I Love Him and Fortnight.

While they are eager to learn if they're correct, some are curious about where in the show the new album will be played.

The Eras Tour is already about three hours and 15 minutes.

Fans assume one era will need to be cut to make way for the new one.

"Could remove some songs on Folklore and/or Midnights being the longest sets on the Tour," one person said.

Another said: "What if she gets rid of the surprise songs and does TTPF instead that makes more sense to me then just adding a whole new era and taking away others songs from the other Eras."

Taylor Swift hints at Eras Tour setlist changes after ‘TTPD’ album release

Thanks for contacting us. We've received your submission.

Fans theorize that Taylor Swift is changing her Eras Tour setlist to include songs from her new album, “The Tortured Poets Department.”

Swift shared a black-and-white video collage of her practicing for the upcoming leg of her tour and added her new single, “Fortnight,” in the background to YouTube Shorts on Thursday.

The Grammy winner, 34, included several snippets of her wearing different athleisure outfits while holding a microphone, singing and dancing on different parts of the stage.

The “Cruel Summer” songstress even featured a snap of her playing her acoustic guitar and sitting at her signature mossy piano.

However, some eagle-eyed fans noticed a few differences in some of the clips from what she’s done in her past shows –– such as her background dancers wearing black top hats and canes.

Swift also appeared to be leaning on a silver pole that seemed to have a white “TTPD” sign hanging on the side of it. Fans additionally pointed out her white guitar and matching microphone.

“A fortnight til Paris 🤍 Brought to you by YouTube Shorts #ForAFortnightChallenge,” she captioned the video on Thursday.

Swift will resume her tour in Paris in two weeks –– aka a fortnight –– on May 9.

Several fans flooded the comments pointing out the changes and wrote about how convinced they are she’ll be swapping some songs for “TTPD” hits.

“Won’t be surprised if she actually does change the setlist a little bit,” one user wrote.

“she’s going to add TTPD songs to the setlist!!” another person commented.

“SHE’S PROB GONNA ADD TTPD!!!!!” someone exclaimed.

“TTPD on the setlist😭I will pass out,” another person added.

Swift has not released the setlist for her upcoming shows and she did not share the setlist before she kicked off the tour in Arizona in March 2023.

The “Shake it Off” songstress previously sang 44 songs on every show and swapped out two songs each concert that were acoustic “surprise songs” not included in the same setlist.

After Paris, Swift will hit several European countries, including Sweden, Spain and Portugal, before wrapping up in London in August.

All the proof Taylor Swift is making first major change to Eras Tour

Welcome to "The Tortured Poets Department" (Eras Tour Version).

It looks like Taylor Swift 's Eras Tour is getting a brand new era, straight from the Tortured Poets Department .

Since the announcement of her new 11th studio album ( which dropped April 19 ), fans have been anxiously waiting to see if her worldwide, career-spanning tour would get a shakeup to accommodate the new music. While Swift is remaining mum, and a rep for the singer didn't respond to an EW request for comment, a new YouTube Short posted to Swift's account seems to provide all the clarity Swifties needed that a change is imminent.

In the video, which is part of Swift's #ForAFortnightChallenge tied to the album's first single, "Fortnight," the 14-time Grammy winner can be seen rehearsing for tour with her backup dancers. While some shots are obviously from the Folklore , Lover , and other existing "eras" of the show, several blink-and-you'll-miss-it moments have never been seen before.

In one, Swift, clad in workout gear, appears to be wearing the same boots seen in her "Fortnight" video . She's holding on to a banister that looks like it has the Tortured Poets Department emblem on it — the "P" and the "D" can just be made out.

taylor swift/youtube

Although the video is in grayscale, and therefore exact colors are impossible to identify for sure, several shots feature what looks like a new white-ish mic, which has never been seen before. The new era's color, of course, is also an off-white hue.

Perhaps the most interesting moment of the new clip, though, is one that features what looks like new choreography and costumes. Swift's backup dancers can be seen in top hats and dancing with canes, while she sings in the front middle of the group — choreography and props which have so far not been featured in the concert.

This is all speculative until the tour resumes in Paris, France, on May 9, of course, but if Swift is adding a whole new era, it would mark the first major change to the setlist since Swift began performing it last March.

Throughout the tour, she's made little swaps here or there: She added performances with some of the artists who opened for her like HAIM or Phoebe Bridgers, and she added "Long Live" to the Speak Now section when that re-recorded album released during tour. She also swapped out "Invisible String" for the "The 1" in the Folklore section after news of her split with Joe Alwyn broke.

But, nothing has majorly been added or subtracted from the show, which is already a whopping three-and-a-half hours long. Now, if anyone could pull off adding more runtime to Eras, it's the "Mastermind" herself, but it's more likely that some songs will be getting cut to make room for new material. Fans have theorized that the tracks that didn't make it into the VOD rental of the Eras Tour concert film — "The Archer," "Wildest Dreams," "Cardigan," and "Long Live" — could be first on the chopping block, but we'll just have to wait and see what Ms. Swift has up her cryptic and Machiavellian sleeve.

Go beneath the streets on this tour of the spectacular, mind-bending Moscow Metro! Be awed by architecture and spot the Propaganda , then hear soviet stories from a local in the know. Finish it all up above ground, looking up to Stalins skyscrapers, and get the inside scoop on whats gone on behind those walls.

Know More about this tour

We begin our Moscow tour beneath the city, exploring the underground palace of the Moscow Metro. From the Square of Revolution station, famous for its huge statues of soviet people (an armed soldier, a farmer with a rooster, a warrior, and more), we’ll move onto some of the most significant stations, where impressive mosaics, columns, and chandeliers will boggle your eyes! Moreover, these stations reveal a big part of soviet reality — the walls depict plenty of Propaganda , with party leaders looking down from images on the walls. Your local guide will share personal stories of his/her family from USSR times, giving you insight into Russia’s complicated past and present. Then we’re coming back up to street level, where we’ll take a break and refuel with some Russian fast food: traditional pancakes, called bliny. And then, stomachs satiated, we are ready to move forward! We’ll take the eco-friendly electric trolleybus, with a route along the Moscow Garden Ring. Used mainly by Russian babushkas(grannies) during the day, the trolleybus hits peak hours in the mornings and evenings, when many locals use it going to and from their days. Our first stop will be the Aviator’s House, one of Stalin’s Seven Sisters, followed by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs — and you’ll hear the legends of what has gone on inside the walls. Throughout your Moscow tour, you’ll learn curious facts from soviet history while seeing how Russia exists now, 25 years after the USSR.

Neil Young and Crazy Horse scaled heights of ragged glory in transcendent Phoenix concert

Neil Young didn't waste any time getting into the epic guitar jams Saturday, April 27, at Talking Stick Resort Amphitheatre, taking the stage with Crazy Horse to set the tone for his first Phoenix concert since 2003 with the fuzz-guitar transcendence of "Cortez the Killer," a speaker-shredding meditation that made it past the 15-minute mark, just long enough to leave you wishing it had gone another 15 minutes.

They were six minutes deep before the singing started. And they dusted off the missing verse Young recently unearthed that didn't make it onto "Zuma" because the console in the studio lost power in the midst of recording an otherwise perfect take.

“I floated on the water,” Young sang nearly 50 years later in Phoenix. “I ate that ocean wave/ Two weeks after the slaughter/ I was living in a cave/ Came too late to get me/ There’s no one here to set me free/ From this rocky grave/ To that snow-capped ocean wave.”

Neil Young and Crazy Horse treat Phoenix to elevating guitar jams

It was a glorious start to a brilliant performance, from the cavernous majesty of his guitar tone to the weathered ache of his lead vocal as the members of Crazy Horse effortlessly lived up to the reputation that led him to title a 1990 album "Ragged Glory," played out in front of the oversized fake Fender amps and road cases they used on the Rust Never Sleeps Tour in the '70s.

This is Young's first major tour with Crazy Horse in 10 years and they're only three shows in, so we may have lucked into a concert that was even looser-limbed than usual. Songs were falling together like magic in slow pursuit of something more elusive than perfection.

It's been 55 years since Young and Crazy Horse spent two weeks in the studio bottling lightning on "Everybody Knows This is Nowhere," a masterpiece that featured heavily in Saturday's performance, from the proto-punk riffing of "Cinnamon Girl" to a sprawling rendition of "Down By the River," "The Losing End (When You're On)" and the country-rocking title track.

It's actually kind of amazing that two of the three original members of Crazy Horse — bassist Billy Talbot and drummer Ralph Molina — are still out there touring with Young after 55 years. They're joined by Micah Nelson, Willie's son, on this tour. The 33-year-old is filling in on guitar for Nils Lofgren, who couldn't do this tour because of a previous commitment with the E Street Band.

But more on Lofgren later.

Nelson previously toured with Young as a member of Promise of the Real.

Neil Young and Crazy Horse haven't lost their magic after 55 years

To look at Young and his two fellow travelers from the early days, you'd clearly know they've aged a year or two since 1969. To hear them? Not so much. It didn't sound much different than the tours I saw Crazy Horse do in the '90s. It rocked with that same urgency and passion (and distortion).

Young has never been the world's flashiest guitarist but he gets more magic out of one note than most guitar heroes can pack into 20 or 30 notes in half the time, arriving at a sound that's his and his alone.

As a singer, his vocals have rarely been flawless, but they've always done exactly what the songs require with raw emotion to spare, and that remained the case Saturday in Phoenix, where the 78-year-old Young sounded great.

Neil Young and Crazy Horse 2024 setlist: Every song they played at Phoenix concert

Neil Young's set went heavy on classics, from 'Powderfinger' to 'Cortez'

The set went heavy on the classics, from those already mentioned to "Don't Cry No Tears" and "Powderfinger."

After "Love and Only Love," the only song they played from "Ragged Glory," Young sent his bandmates away for a three-song mini-set on acoustic guitar and harmonica, including “Comes a Time” and “Heart of Gold."

Then his bandmates returned to bring the set to a cacophonous conclusion with the speaker-bleeding majesty of “Hey Hey, My My (Into the Black)," Young defiantly insisting "Rock and roll will never die" while illustrating why that is before returning for a one-song encore, "Danger Bird," with guest piano by Lofgren, who lives in the Valley and was home on a break in touring with the E Street Band.

By that point, it was everything you could've hoped for from an artist who's been touring since the '60s, playing to the strength that made him such a legend in the first place.

The newest song they played was “Scattered (Let’s Think About Livin’)” from 1996’s "Broken Arrow," prefaced by a heartfelt tribute to producer David Briggs, who worked with Young on countless classic albums before his death in 1995.

It was as close to a greatest hits tour as you'll likely see from Young but because he kept it so unpolished and spontaneous, it felt as fresh as those songs would've felt at any point in Young's career, even a warhorse as frequently featured as "Cinnamon Girl" or "Hey Hey, My My (Into the Black)."

It was everything a Young fan could've hoped for when the tour was first announced and then some.

Young and Reverend Billy & the Stop Shopping Choir deliver Love Earth gospel

After the second song, "Cinnamon Girl," Young took a moment to address the fans.

"This is the part of the show where I stand here at the front and figure out what to say for just a minute or two," he said before leading the crowd in a call-and-response of "What's your favorite planet?" "Earth!"

Then, when the applause died down, he added, "I want my grandchildren's grandchildren to have this so they can go way out in the forest and walk around, way out in the fields and walk around. That's what I want them to see. We've gotta be here."

This is the Love Earth Tour, a sentiment at the heart of the opening set by Reverend Billy and the Stop Shopping Choir, a performance art ensemble whose surreal performance found the Reverend, dressed in a white suit, preaching an anti-war, pro-environment gospel.

"We're here to talk to you about the Earth!" the Reverend shouted. "We've got some high stakes here this evening. Couldn't be higher. It's about life! Saving life! Loving life! Being strange enough to change enough to find a way to live!"

Neil Young and Crazy Horse 2024 setlist: Every song they played in Phoenix

• "Cortez the Killer"
• "Cinnamon Girl"
• "Don't Cry No Tears"
