Sorry for inconvenience

i got 404 error when click on the sample links. they have removed the samples?

the samples link(ed) to frontiers' website... so, does that mean the european version will be released by Frontiers?

can't download

Where are there samples? I can't find them! Are they on the myspace page?

Frontiers Records is excited to announce the release of the newest addition to its roster of Artists. Ladies and Gentlemen, from Finland, please welcome CAIN’S OFFERING debut album “Gather the Faithful” to be released on August 28th in Europe and September 11th in the USA.


the website also has the samples

Sounds great! I love the sound of Timo's voice and I am REALLY looking forward to this album!
Seems like it's right up my alley in taste of music anyways *Jumps up and down*


But I must say My Queen of Winter reminds me a little of My Selene (Sonata Arctica, written by Jani L.).

I love these samples, it sounds like if Stratovarius and Sonata arctica were somehow one band.

I think this one is an epic win

Great samples!!

well, i listened them and are great, I can't wait for the album!

Awesome! :headbang:

I didn't like it at all...

They aren't so special for my taste, but not bad

Not very good for me. I'll listen to it more, but the first impressions are not so good to me.

God help me. Neither am I...Overwhelmed I mean...

Sounds really good, very melodic, and very different from Stratovarius and from Kotipelto's band which is good to me, a new sound.

Does anyone knows who writes all the stuff in the album? Is it Jani or TK is contributing too?

Cheers

It's jani who has written the songs

Sounds nice to me.

I do like it, a lot.
I never imagined TK to sing lyrics like that, but in the autumn when life strikes (again) I know how to relax myself. Finnish males tend to sing beautifully about females only when the relation is all over, this on the other hand may give hope for the future...

Thanx Leo, cool stuff.

It's OK i guess... just not the kind of power metal i like

Great songs! I can't wait for the album!

I'm not too suprised but I won't explain my opinnion any further until I have listened to a few full songs.

Thanks to renew the link

Bravo!!!!
Those samples are seemingly kind of extreme progressive and powerful ones,reminding me of Dragon Force
I love this style!

great... sonata, strato, kenziner... a little bit of everything. let´s preorder!

This is exactly the music I like...fast, catchy, tons of guitar riffs, a balanced amount of keyboard, and a little bit of funky grooves like towards the end of more than friends.

I will buy this immediately

thanks to Icecab for discovering the link!

Awesome stuff! Great! I think this will make up for the Polaris disappointment.

I have to say sounds bright, and I don't think sounds like a mixed Strato-Sonata at all. Sounds quite fresh, but I wasn't that amazed by the songs like "Deep Unknown" amazed me a few weeks ago, but I'll have to wait till the release of the CD to give my true final opinion about Cain's Offering.

I have to agree. I have to wait to say my final word. Samples can misslead you, but those 2:14 samples sounded really great.

Could any one put link to samples... I just do not found any... and I am so tired to search... sorry, I am drunk to searc any samples
I watched two links and there was only text...
