Re: New album "Elysium", Jan 12 2011. Single on Nov 26
Thank you! Interesting. First I assumed it's going to be similar to Event Horizon, but the vocal melody and lyrics turn it into something else... and I'm not quite sure what. Matias' solo is wonderful again, TK seems a bit weak this time, or is it just me? At the risk of repeating myself, to me it s...

It is an open group
As far as I get fb, there's no "more open" way.

Re: Some good news and some bad news at the same time
Seems I'm not used to such a cordial band or band members. To me it seems you guys / gals are expecting quite a lot from them.
Nevermind, I know I'm not in the position to judge.

Re: which one in your opinion is the fastest Stratovarius song?
Me too, and I don't even have the required endowment.
TK did pretty fucking well back then, I was expecting it to be terrible, but he put up a good fight.
Still I think the composition was made up only for the purpose of torturing him![Razz :P](./images/smilies/icon_razz.gif)

I read a short report about Stratovarius in the latest German issue of MetalHammer today, and Jens told them that Elysium originally had about 30 min :shock: Matias cut it short to 25 min and then once again to the final version. The others could persuade him not to cut it into three parts, and I'm ...
