Re: New album predictions
Perfect!! It seems that we will have more news during these weeks! There are too many thing to be revealed: the title, the tracklist (and the composers), the artwork ( I am sure that Gyula Havancsák will shock us again! :) ) and of course the single EP and the videoclip for that song! Wow, I am star...

Re: Confirmed Stratovarius shows
We need to know how many time will they play. I mean, I suppose the tour is more about Stratovarius than Amaranthe? I don't want to see them just 40 minutes like last time with Helloween! From what I understand -- 75 minutes each. Should be fun :o) Should be, but there is a big difference between t...

Stratovarius 2012 Studio Interview (by EarMusic)
Well here is the video that promised EarMusic via Facebook weeks ago. It's not an excellent interview, and too short, but perhaps they post something more later... It's based on people's questions in Facebook. Enjoy it!

Re: Nightwish parts ways with Anette
Very reasonable. I think that Anette Olzon has done a great job during all those 5 years, which probably have been the hardest ones of her professional career. She was chosen to be the replacement of Tarja Turunen and she did her best to try to satisfy the band and the fans, that afford has been in ...

Yes, it's a respectable opinion of course! Anyway it seems that you wanted a super DVD shooted in Wacken with big focus and a big stage and of course thousands of people around there...

For sure Pilve seems the right decision (good drum solo by the way!). He's a truly talented drummer. From now on, they might increase one step more the staging in the way that they have to develop the concert with "screens" ore "leds" somewhere, as they did years before, not exaggerated, but somethi...

Re: Under Flaming Winter Skies: Live in Tampere on June 29, 2012
I understand that in some ways we could criticize Kotipelto, but after watching a lot of times this awesome DVD I have to say that, despite of his 43 years, he's doing an awesome job. I remember seeing videos of 1997's shows and his performance was not as good as now. I mean, he had the voice and th...

Matias was, with no doubt, the best decision of Stratovarius since 1996. I hope this will be one of those good decisions!! Rolf "Rolle" Pilve ...

Re: Under Flaming Winter Skies: Live in Tampere on June 29, 2012
Perhaps the fact that Infernal Maze works so well as an opening show song affected on the decision of 'non-playing that song'. The new intro is mindblowing and perhaps it suggested more to band members in the way that the intro seems to mean "a journey through all those years" which fits perfectly w...

The album is just OK. Bad for a high quality band as Sonata Arctica, but just OK talking in terms of music. Since I listened to the samples I've been saying that "Stones Grow Her Name" is not a solid album, and after listening the album I think that in some ways I am right, in others not. Just to po...
