Album will be released only on 27th of January, but We have possibility to listen to four songs from new album. Absence on World arena during 2 years was useful to STRATOVARIUS. Music of the band becomes nearer to the standart of melodic power-metal. It consists not only of melody and pressure, but complexity (not progressive of course) and symphonic. Parties of orchestra and chorus were added in some songs, especially in slow tracks. And If Italians, especially RHAPSODY, have south pressure, Finns have restraint and severity. Magnificent clean sound promises success not only at fans of heavy metal. Music loses in weight, but i'm not sorry about it. I think much better losing weight and acquire variety. Timo Tolkki is not 'sawing' only, but he's playing melodic passages too. And we didn't have claims to other musicians. Classic of genre!!!
