I've just ordered the Special CD + 7 edition from the U.S. Amazon
I'm in love with "Deep Unknown"
How will the rest of the songs be? *-*

Well, these reviews give some insight into how the whole album will be:
Metal Rules
BEC radio
BWBK
and here's some opinions from people who listened to the promo in this thread.
Seems there's a consensus that it is a very Stratovarius sounding album, with lots of new elements and interest. Can't wait to hear the whole thing.

This is what the terms and conditions say:
Unless otherwise stated, each Competition is open to all GB residents of 18 years and over, except employees of: (a) the Company; and (b) any third party appointed by the Company to organise and/or manage the Competition; and (c) the Competition sponsor(s).
So looks like it's only for Great Britain - sadly..

Another UK-only Strato contest. Hopefully this marks the start of Strato getting much more well known in the UK (and as a result, more touring).

Hush you. At least you get regular heavy metal tours in the mainland. Spare a thought for us culturally backwards idiots in the UK with our lack of a decent fanbase.

Actually, Bloodstock's lineup this year is for the most part excellent. Cradle should never, ever be headlining a festival though, regardless of how big a draw they are.

2006 I believe. That was the year where it was about Power Metal at BOA. Edguy and Strato headlining.
