Re: Difficult question: The worst strato song(s) for you
I'd like to add that the reason I like "Elysium" is that the music sounds good to me. The reason I like "In Paradisium" is, surprisingly enough, that the music sounds good to me. I'm not in a position to know which band has morally better musicians simply because I don't personally know any of the p...

Re: why the age limit?,
Why do they have an age limit for Stratovarius shows in Finland? It seems very strange for me.It sucks. I was 15 at my first heavy metal concert. Here in Hungary there isn't any over 18 age limit at concerts. If you are over 14 you can go every show without adults. Its an antiquated policy that ori...

Re: Difficult question: The worst strato song(s) for you
Sumerian really isn't among our worst trolls.
Liking Elysium is blind fanaticism, but comparing Tolkki with prophet Mohammad somehow isn't. That was a good one.

Re: Difficult question: The worst strato song(s) for you
I have to say that I don't like TK's compositions that much. At least what is outside Elysium . I think the problem is that TK is more like a hard rock composer. He's good at writing KOTIPELTO songs. I like his solo stuff. But when he tries to write Stratovarius style power metal he might be outsid...

Re: Difficult question: The worst strato song(s) for you
Ok, my bottom five would be like this: 5) Paradise. This one just got so old so fast 4) Götterdämmerwhatever. The Hitler song. Kind of boring. 3) Know the Difference. Cliched, dull, predictable chord progressions, unoriginal. 2) Fantasia. The least successful of Stratovarius' long epics. Some too pr...

Re: FUCKING GREAT
I love how last chance to see jörg with strato at Tavastia will have fucking 18 age limit. thats fucking cool. So I will never see Jörg again playing in strato. If you're desperate to see them you need to travel to Mikkeli. AFAIK that's the only show of the tour that's without an age limit. But I b...

Re: Difficult question: The worst strato song(s) for you
The thing is: I already got tired of Paradise in 1997. In other words, the song had very little replay value to me. Therefore I consider it a bad song.eternity_strato wrote:I am so tired of Black Diamond, but that doesn't make it a bad song or that I don't like it.

Yes, TT sent Jari an SMS telling him he's fired. But Jari said in an interview he was about to leave anyway. So saying "Jari quit" isn't that far away from the truth, actually.eternity_strato wrote:Tolkki fired him. He didn't quit!

And a song called "Jens Johansson goes into the woman's sauna and has the biggest hairiest balls there", which fared rather well in the 2007 song poll getting eleven votes.eternity_strato wrote:with an amazing 10-minute drum solo!

Bring back Lassila! Wasn't he in an orchestra? Doing percussion? That's a pretty classy job! Yep, I think he still is. :) I don't seriously believe he'll be coming back though. First off, he was fired because of musical differences as he never liked the modern Stratovarius style Tolkki was starting...

Re: The FOOTBALL thread
For one week things were looking good for HJK Helsinki. They achieved a 2:0 win at home... only to get their asses kicked 1:6 in Gelsenkirchen. Not sure what happened after the first half there, I guess the coach tried a chance of tactics but it didn't work... the players looked kind of confused as ...

Re: Obama orders media blackout over flooded nuclear plant
I don't think "Godlikeproductions" is a reliable site. They usually try to brainwash and scare people with farout paranoid propaganda. I'm not expert on GLP, but judging from a brief visit it seems more like that a lot of people are using the forums to post fiction for their personal entertainment....

Yes, fuck you.
No, seriously. It's among their best ones surely, but I don't think it's THE best one. Maybe on the 3rd or 4th place.
