[JensJohansson]

Four Chinese shows in the end of May 2010 have been confirmed, please check http://www.stratovarius.com/tour/ for live gig details as usual!

Also we have a bit tentatively started work on a new studio album. We all recently got together in Sotkamo for a while to throw around some new ideas. Lauri made a little video and here it is:

Yeah it souded really cool. That's why I was asking. But they just started working on the new album so I doubt if they allready recorded stuff like that.

[ggonza43]

Children labour

[fernandotcl]

The little piece of music in the end is from a demo of one of the songs we are working on at the moment, made by Matias. We have a lot of great material and i think the next album will kick all kinds of asses. I love Polaris, but now we are taking it to the next level. BEWARE!!!

Thank you for the nice surprise guys! It has a very different feel but it is still amazing and its not even done- Good Luck! We are all behind you!

[robocop656]

Damn, looks like Lauri's seen the meanwhile in Finland pics we posted hahaha. You guys should just make a whole cd of 1:20 - 2:00 with jorgs kids whacking away....extreme experimental brutal Finnish children metal!!!

[RazielSR]

awesome!!!! It's nice to have some news about Stratovarius. Let's hope to know some more things about the album soon. Very nice video! Can't wait for the next album, it's gonna be fantastic, for sure!

Sounds excellent, thanks for this amazing news Lauri

[Verdades Parias]

i/m pretty shocked about thath 25 seconds in the end. Quite surprised, what a beautiful ambience, like a winter feeling, or a night sensation...my perseption, .

Really cool, i'm expecting more from Matias, good songs from his part

[AAAAAAAAAA]

Really cool, i'm expecting more from Matias, good songs from his part

Agreed. I think Deep Unknown was the best song on Polaris. This new album is going to be bigger than Priapus's phallus

[shg]

Good video, Lauri! But this:

"will kick all kinds of asses"

I wonder what is coming...

[Skyggeboy]

Nice video! I have been waiting for this I can't wait to hear and see more "work in progress" videos. This next album must be great

[foerg]

wtf? german signs in finland?!?

SCHAUKELN VERBOTEN!

[_Pepe_]

ahahaha

new album! new album!!! :D:D

[lalodrums2]

The song at the end, sounds really good !!! I love it man!!

I'm sure it's going to be a kickass album.

Good luck, and cheers everyone from Monterrey, Mexico!



Stratovarius = The best band ever!!

[Rebel]

Really cool, i'm expecting more from Matias, good songs from his part

Agreed. I think Deep Unknown was the best song on Polaris. This new album is going to be bigger than Priapus's phallus

After almost a year, I've settled firmly into the King of Nothing camp.

Holy fuck Lauri, I love Polaris too, but if this next album is anything close to those last seconds, that's gonna be the best album ever created by men!

You are the best.
