Matias seems focus on heavy riffs and some stuffs. I don't think that his solos are becoming sloppy or cheesy, maybe lazy I think or He purposely done it without much the cliche. I wonder what T(r)ollki thinks of this when he listen to this new song

Re: HALCYON DAYS HERE !
Only the Japanese would enjoy something like that.
I think the song sounds like ost from Metal Gear Solid. New, but I have to check the entire album to embrace the rebirth completely.
I like it. The riffs, effects, everything!

Re: HALCYON DAYS HERE !
I Ö10 officially declare that I love those two songs I have heard, and that I like Rebels review...
Re: HALCYON DAYS HERE !
Halcyon Days on repeat since 8am. I was thinking about the tour while listening. This kind of epicness deserves an epic stage design. Pyro's, one hell of a lightshow, not just a blank stage. Something specially crafted for this tour.
Re: HALCYON DAYS HERE !
And after having listened to it at least 20 times on my way to work today, I can officially declare that I love it as well <3 I just had to ignore the expectations I had before Very powerful song with very fresh vibe and sound and effects. Must've been a lot of fun both to record and to mix, and trying out the effects and stuff
Re: HALCYON DAYS HERE !
I love it and it seems that Tolkki likes it too; this is what he wrote on his FB account:
"Timo Tolkki
Hace 37 minutos cerca de Helsinki ·
Just heard 2 new clips "Unbreakable" and "Halcyon Days" from my ex-bandmates. I am actually floored. These are really cool songs. The production is fresh and modern. Way to go!"
the thing about the sound of Strato is that they are not repeating themselves anymore and even though the music is not that Power Metal (which i love) sounds really really fresh and pretty fucking enjoyable!

Re: HALCYON DAYS HERE !
I second that.....The first time I heard it yesterday, I really didn't know what to think. For example, I love Sonata Arctica, but when they go way left, they go all the way to the left. You know its different from the start. What I loved about Halcyon Days was is identifiable as Stratovarius and it has the classic power and melody....just twisted and made more modern. Quite honestly I LOVE IT! Its like classic albums like Episode, Vision, and Infinite brought into the 2010's. Congrats Strato!mocobhc wrote:And after having listened to it at least 20 times on my way to work today, I can officially declare that I love it as well <3 I just had to ignore the expectations I had before Very powerful song with very fresh vibe and sound and effects.

I will give you guys a full report on Monday when I go the Listening Party- 5 more days....can't wait!
SHINE ON!
Re: HALCYON DAYS HERE !
One day after having a second song, and we already have a third one?! This album is giving everybody so much expectation that it's not healthy anymore! Halcyon Days has become now a great song, it took me time to forget about what I was used to listen from the band, and now I simply love it !
Edit: THAT BONUS TRACK IS JUST MINDBLOWING! Thanks A10 for enlightening my day :jump2:!

Re: HALCYON DAYS HERE !
Thanks Ilse!
The original article where the song can be heard streaming has a right-click option to download as an MP3.
Oh, and the bonus song...LOL.

Re: HALCYON DAYS HERE !
I sense some of symphonyxromeo style riffs in this amazing song...

Re: HALCYON DAYS HERE !
i went to listen halcyon days in youtube and found all new tracks from nemesis, but there need to go somewhere... is it allready leaked? :/
Re: HALCYON DAYS HERE !
I saw that too, however, I would not trust it. I dont think if it were to leak it would be this early. And for those that do and love it.....Buy it and support our future releases and tour by Stratovarius.method wrote:i went to listen halcyon days in youtube and found all new tracks from nemesis, but there need to go somewhere... is it allready leaked? :/

Re: HALCYON DAYS HERE !
what?! hey, that's way too early, I'm still in the "looking-forward-to"-hype but now I know it's leaked, it's going to be a very hard task to wait two more months till the CDs arrive ofc I was happy to hear three new songs by now, but all of them? fuck those people to tempt me like this, not fair
Re: HALCYON DAYS HERE !
I highly doubt that leak is real. That site looks iffy.
Edit:Also it probably would cost to make an account to the site and no one should pay anything to pirates anyway so..

Re: HALCYON DAYS HERE !
It's all fake. Same as the "Stratovarius Nemesis 2013 320kbps Mp3" torrent.
Re: HALCYON DAYS HERE !
I have to aviod all clips now... Unbreakable is enough for me until I get the album

Really good! Sounds like the evolution of runaway ( bt of elements)

Re: HALCYON DAYS HERE !
After carefully listening this song few dozen times and analyzing it while being drunk I conclude that IT'S FUCKING AWESOME!
Re: HALCYON DAYS HERE !
This song is absolutely great! I love it. Only six days to the single release and about a month to the album. Hard to wait.. This album will be great!
