Re: Stratovarius

Listening to it right now, I really really like the vocalist. He's got such a great harmonic voice.

I would check out Timo's work or anything with his name on it.

Haha, it's all good. Lots of videos for me to watch. I will be sure to bookmark all of them. I've got some music playing currently. I will for sure come back to them though :tup:

Re: Stratovarius

I have seen Stratovarius live twice and they have some great albums like Visions, Destiny and Infinite but TBH I lost interest in them after that as they began watering down their sound to a less progressive more mainstream sound that I am not interested in.

I didn't give their 2009 release a listen due to disillusion but may give an ear to samples of this years release if I happen to stumble upon some.

Re: Stratovarius

DKW, I have the new album, and I have not given it more than one spin yet. I will say this album is very melodic.

The title track Elysium is the best track, IMHO.

Re: Stratovarius

All of their albums other then maybe the first are very melodic .Some are just are just lacking the spark of the earlier material .

I like that song ....sounds much better then their stuff that I would call mainstream poppy power metal .
