I translated it on Babelfish---- it was basically the same, however the review of Elysium was much nicer. Less than a month to go before we can make our own review....So excited

I think I like this translation better :


Elysium is with its 18 minutes length the midpoint of the album. In spite of the epic sizes, the song does not irritate however with endless repetitions, but rather learns more than an once a turn. There hymnische moments with progressive and awkward part alternate itself, and like in a short film also the prevailing mood of the song develops. Naturally no straying instrumental enclosures and solos may be absent from such a long piece – and that are as expected first creme.

[mayhem-for-all]

Well I read the whole thing (yes I speak german)

Nothing too interesting or something we didn't know.
What matters is the last section:

Elysium ist sicherlich kein Überalbum

[Elz]

here is some finnish translations with google translator :
"Elysium, sen 18 minuuttia pitkä keskustaan albumin. Vaikka eeppisen mittakaavan kappaleen perseestä" and exactly same in english:
"Elysium, its 18 minute long downtown album.Even if from epic scale song ass.

"Peli ei pääty koskaan, on kontrabasso makkara kirjoittanut Jens Johansson." = "game never ends, is contrabass sausage write jens johansson"

[RazielSR]

Proper translation for the Game Never Ends part: (and no I am not going to translate the whole thing and as I already said nothing too interesting here or something we wouldn't know)

Game never ends is a doublebass song that comes from the pen of of Jens Johansson. While Timo Kotipelto sings the melody of the song, all the instruments play the hymnic maintheme together of the song.

He also mentions the key solo is very fun and playful (you can't say you didn't guess that when you knew that the song is written by Jens)

(and yes I had hard time (Edit. Actually I am not sure at all) and I hope someone with better german might translate the whole text)

Actually I prefer the translation in my next post

[mayhem-for-all]

The translate sure has even more contrabass sausages:
(so this is the translation of the German to Finnish google translation)

Darkest Hours:
Starts vividly with rock rhythm common time. Biblic verse of the year but restrained. Team equipment and song Timo Kotipelto Hymn-book ( ) some popchoir. Then Matias Kupiainen and Jens Johansson out those solos like consciousness from neoclassical.

Under Flaming Skies:
A step further. The Play (theater) is directed by contrabass drums ( ) when the guitarist plays Kummeliturskaa =cairncod ( ) at liges pace. The voice of Kotipelto in choir for the first time gets higher it will be reinforced by the keys of the icecrystals

Infernal Maze:
First heard Timo Kotipelto soft voice so that bombastic orchestra venture makes clear that won't come piece of ballad. instead use contrabass ( ). Not just chorus gives dark mood. during extended solopart may be Kupiainen and Johansson-steam ( ). When the singers voice in the end direction for clouds. It is winter shut(WTF)

Fairness Justified:
Is most likely efficient ballad. heavy slow rhythm and keyboard (computer keyboard not the instrument ) make the overall ground monitored by Timo Kotipelto his sing a song. Somewhat unclear and melody but very much soul guitar solo.

Game Never Ends:
Contrabass sausage write Jens Johansson. The biblic verse of the year Timo Kotipelto and his singing set when hymn (religious) maintheme spread to all equipment since language smacking is crazy keyboard alone.

Lifetime in a Moment:
is long before rligious intro (WTF) before guitar heavy rhythm tendon volley shoot. the whole spread sometime comforting kashmir feeling but roomy kyes (item) stand out. and a mystical heavy chorus. just right breathing fast fuel.

Move the Mountain:
Ballad no two piano melody and chorus keyboard before blond sing acrobat and Matias Kupiainen take hold of acoustic guitar. very strict follow beautiful melodies. Is there similar moog-solo Jens Johansson in which feels reminds Thousand Lakes.

Event Horizon:
Band is suddenly in sight even speed again. Double bass drums (no contrabass drums ) notice shining fast clock. And already before first verse is first neoclassical bridge. Matias Kupianinen and Jens Johansson take turns breathtaking solos. In addition singing is difficult to understand.
It Changes also Spaceship emergency samples nothing

Elysium:
Its 18 minutes long to the city centre. Even though from the epic scale ass but not endless repetition. But learns more than once turning. Like anthemic moments take turns progressive and complicated parts and shortfilm developed and atmosphere of the song. Of course this long stretch no exaggerated instrumental songs and solos may be missing and they are expected to be top quality.

Castaway:
Year edition Elysium finds only japan but straighter, faster joukkovelkakirjalainoja ( what a word. 4 words in one. ) =bondloan


Some parts from the final part:
Band is heard a unit...Everyone who has counted the previous album finds a new job...highpower metal singing little bit of Kummeliturska guitarplaying ( ) and solos especially fiercely...Other interviews from Stratovarius: "5.5.2009 it doesn't matter how long your hair has been. What matters is if you are your head"


(Kummeliturska, Kotipelto virsikirja ja Johansson-höyry )


E: I expect to be nominated for the best post of the year




Well don't vote for me then.

[ggonza43]

Thanks a lot mayhem for your "translation" ! It helped, at least to me

Also:

Nice back art :headbang:!

[RazielSR]

Yes, it is REALLY nice.

So, the first leg of the tour has finished, let's see if Jens or the guys come around here and tell us some news about how Jörg is doing, etc, etc.

[ggonza43]

Indeed, I hope Jörg is doing well and some more samples from Elysium as well

[Texidor]

I hope so - we need some news- only 3 weeks left YAY!
