'''''Elegy''''' is the third studio album by the then-emerging Finnish heavy metal band [[Amorphis]]. The album is their first to feature a majority of clean vocals, sung by new vocalist [[Pasi Koskinen]]. The music and lyrics are inspired by the traditional Finnish ballads and poems compiled in the ''Kanteletar'' by Elias Lönnrot in 1840. The primary genre of the album is [[progressive metal]], with strong folk influence, as well as elements of [[melodic death metal]] and [[heavy metal]]. Many of the album's tracks, e.g. "Against Widows", have become fan favorites and have been performed in concerts since ''Elegy'''s release. In 2004, [[Relapse Records]] reissued ''Elegy'' as a digipak, featuring four live bonus tracks.
