Yeah.. news will come when/if they come. We just have to sit back, and wait.Tetsuo wrote:I (almost at 100%) agree with you. I just don't want to push the guys on telling us anything yet. It's their lives after all you know. But anyway if these news are indeed true, it would be the best news in the history of mankind; not only for the recordings but for (and mostly) the end of the war between TT and TK...friends once again.Let's just wait for official news...
or maybe they decided to go commercial like their finn friends...let´s wait for stratonemo!Väinämöinen wrote:It doesn´t make sense, unfortunately.

May be Anders Johanson was drunk like someone suggested

We can always hope for the best, but it's true that Tolkki said Strato is "on ice" right now. I'm doubtful anything is happening... if something is, then I'd be overjoyed. 
Assuming it's true... I'm guessing they are using the drum tracks he put down awhile back with Jens while Tolkki was not around.crostrato wrote:eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
where is the JORG in this STORY, i am big fan of him
I think the reason lies in the guys wanting to keep the fans and the media off their backs in order to ensure complete freedom of concentration.scorp wrote:Ok, here is the exact words from the Greek Metal Hammer:
[...]As we were on the road, Anders Johansson dropped the second bomb: his brother, the keyboardist of the broken up Stratovarius, Jens Johansson, these days, is at New York, where he's recording with Tolkki/Kotipelto/Kainulainen the new album of Stratovarius![...]
In my opinion, Anders (no matter how "crazy" he seems to be) is a professional musician and a reasonable person. He couldn't have lied. Since he said that this must be true (except he lied but I don't believe so). Now, there are many "whys' about the place. There can be many reasons that we are not able to know and some we can only imagine
Some of them would be that thing with the explosions someone mentioned. Another one would be that they don't want to let news go out yet cause maybe nothing is sure. Or they might want to work silently away from all that interest of the fans. Or for contract reasons...or...or...
Those reasons are only what I have to my mind (my imagination in other words) so I may be completely mistaken.
But what's for sure (in my opinion) is that what Anders said is true.
Yeah.. this is good news! They're trying to work out the problems! Way to go..Aneete wrote:Ten minutes ago, I got this message from Anders Johansson : o))
"Stratovarius has recorded drums (with Jörg) and some keyboards. Don't know if they will be together or not. They are trying towork out the problems and with the original line up. music was more like hard rock this time."

Thank you so much for setting us straight so we won't get our hopes TOO high&get disappointed. That is good news--Jens&Jorg were both on top of things. Were they not together working&recording earlier this year, if I recall correctly? Is Anders referring to THAT work?Aneete wrote:Ten minutes ago, I got this message from Anders Johansson : o))

hard to imagine . if the music ist composed by TT i don't think there comes anything out only for earning money. all the music he has written comes from his heart and why should it be not so this time? They have a contract...empi wrote:stratonemo
Of course, it won't make a Stratonemo, but the thing, what makes them to play again, at least one reason is, that they have a contract.empi wrote:a contract over 3 albums not do make stratonemo

Agree as well. The fact is, we have no actual word from the band itself, and we must have that in order to consider the news truthful.johnny wrote:i think that for one more time we must wait before we start crying out stuff that have no base....
So true. Maybe some "metal magazines" or tabloid can figure out the actual situation before the band says anythingshaz wrote:we have no actual word from the band itself, and we must have that in order to consider the news truthful.
