If your parents divorce, what can you do?

Buy a dog and pretend the family is complete again?

This Revolution has a serious message in it...

I can picture that too! And I do like what I see!

How about Heikki Pöyhiä from Twilightning?
He might be "unknown" but he has a great voice!

It will be Kirka! :lol: hahaha! XD @BEG: Well... maybe Doro Pesch would suit? She is a hell of a singer and has a killer voice! If a female singer would suit for this album I think it would require a person with a more powerful voice and personality. I just got "scared" cause I had enough of Tarja'...

And well...I really like Kiske and Sammet...but in their own bands u.u I don't know...it's kinda difficult not to picture Timo K. singing those songs Acording to TT you will never hear. But if lucky you will hear a Stratovarius cover band called Revolution Renaissance, they will have new unknown si...

There is actually Kiske and then 1 00000000 imitators. But Kiske is the best for this kind of music. I have to agree on that... Helloween released the Keepers around 87/88 and before that I can't actually recall any other singer who did what Kiske did in the Keepers. If I'm wrong, please, somebody ...

I have listen to the samples... Then I'v got back listen to my old Vision's CD...Then I'v got back to the samples... I like the melodies, I love to hear Kiske back singing with attitude but I can't describe these songs as "Vision's style". Forgive me Timo, but I don't want you to become another Lar...

Sounds cool? Vision's style? This is metal because there are metal voices, metal guitars and metal drums. But this is not metal. I don't like it. Just the beggining of Heroes. For me is a bad album. And I'm not going to buy it. this is getting funnier... :lol: Free world dude, we all are entitled t...

Look, just drop it. They don't need anyone to tell them that thousands of people would love to see a final tour, they know that already. What's happened has happened. It's like you're in denial or something. Just respect their issues. 100% agree. Respect TT and others decisions. Exactly... What do ...

Yes, you're right, it was totally great & asskicking :D If it was the last Stratogig I'll ever see, that was the best "bye" I can imagine. It could have been yeah. Heard once from very reliable source even the band liked Masters of Rock gig a lot. Which can imagine, also their appearance on Tuska l...

IceBreaker wrote:Thinking about a Strato comeback is just wasting time and thoughts. You just should understand the situation and their decisions. And of course give support to their future.

Btw @Criss: 666th post.

Back with style dear!

That's so unfair. There's nothing we(the fans) can do? Yes, there is... respect their decisions :) And support them on whatever they want to do for the near future... surely we'll still have the music of the members who want to go on with their own projects... RR is an example of that. No reason to...

As a bit offtopic, but why you have to sell them. You never know if later you even start liking them, I have many albums getting dust to their covers in my shelfs, but sometimes I find there a couple, try listening them and may even start liking them. Also is it harsh to say you hate those? Maybe y...

You know, I would really have taken some pics with my camera, if my batteries weren’t STOLEN! :x from my suitcase in that fucking airport in Argentina... damn, I’m going to complain about that forever! I’m not only even more pissed off about that because I had a great time in there and back to Brazi...

Indeed... as Tolkki said on his blog:

Stratovarius does not support these kind of activities. So if you see anykind of event other than concert saying you can meet us and you have to pay money for that, don´t believe it. It is not true.

If you’re pissed off, imagine the guys who went to a metal bar here in SP expecting to see Stratovarius and the other bands from Live n Louder festival. It was one of those “pay and greet” parties... 50 reais to get in, extremely expensive! They announced the bands as if they had confirmed they’d be...

Yeah!! Me and my sister rocking around again!

I tell you, once you get a Strato show in your veins, it is like a drug---as many years as I went without ever seeing Strato live, I used to think that once I saw them live that I would be satiated and that would be enough. Wrong! Once I saw Strato, I wanted to see them twice. Then again, and again...

MetalAngel wrote:I hope Stratovarius will be heavier than on the last album. Stratovarius making Iron Maiden, THAT would be cool.

Then it wouldn't be Stratovarius, just another Iron Maiden copy

Hey guys, I think we should look for the news before asking the same thing here for at least a 100 times. Here's Timo's statement... it can be find at his forum on the topic "Stratovarius News" "What about the DVD? We are waiting for it so long." Unfortunately the Sao Paulo show is not qualitywise g...

To your question: I have no idea. And I really don't see any reason why Strato albums should be remastered. maybe because of Sanctuary... do you remember all the problems they had (or maybe still have) with the label some time ago? It's being really hard to find a strato album here to sell, only th...

Yeah... it reminded me how to say "I want to fuck your dog" in portuguese XD

What else can I say about your avatar other than it's the funniest I've seen in ages?!

:rotflmao1: :rotflmao2:

Something tells me it'll be Motorhead

May I cry now? X´D
This festival is gonna rock! :headbang:

Are you ready?

StragOvariuS wrote: Back to L'n'L subject...they'll confirm another band soon...the headliner and seems MOTORHEAD will close the festival...

I hope so! If that's true, this is going to be the best festival we've seen in years here!

Actually Sepultura used to be a a-ma-zing band until Chaos A.D. They should have changed their name after Max left the band. They are now... how to say my honest opinion and stay polite ?... their music is a thousand feet under what it used to be... Agreed... it's been a long time since I don't lis...

Actually it'd be better if you could translate it since most of people here can't read portuguese :wink: "Sepultura, the greatest heavy metal brasilian band from all of the times (personal opinion: bullshit) it's officially confirmed in the cast of the 2006 Live N' Louder Rock Fest edition in São Pa...
