Stratovarius new EP "Darkest Hours" NEWS!!!
Here seems to be the right news:
Stratovarius will release "Darkest Hours", an EP consisting of five songs, through earMUSIC/edel on November 26th, 2010. This is a preview for the fans until the arrival of the band's new album titled "Elysium" in February 2011.
The new songs in the the EP combine the classic powerful and melodic style with unreleased live tracks and are real collector materials because they have never been published before.

Re: Stratovarius new EP "Darkest Hours" NEWS!!!
Wow, didn't expect that! My mind grows speculations over speculations atm How many new songs will be released, one (probably yes) or even more? Will the new song(s) also appear on the album (probably yes), or only on the EP? Will there be a live vid of one of the Polaris tracks, not only audio (probably not, unfortunately)? Will there be extra stuff from the Polaris tour, maybe a collection of all the Tour in Progress vids (ditto)? Will Illumination be a title for another new song instead? Will Darkest Hours also be the title of one of the tracks (probably yes)? Why am I surprised by such a rather "depressive" title and cover, thus: Can't wait for the lyrics and who wrote them...
This is too much. I'm taking back what I said before, I feel the terrible need of some official confirmation now

I'd love to see Strato take a dark direction for even just one album, just to see what it can be, a dark Strato album shall be damn new, epic and refreshing, I'd love them to do that!

Funny, I had some lyrics floating around in my head the other day and was thinking they would be perfect for "Paradise Part II". Looks like the cover would fit perfectly.

this album cover is a cheapshot against tolkki who obviously represents the oil tanker that led to this mess while stratovarius is the pelican

I think it represents the destruction of Earth. The animals are the most affected by destruction

Cover looks awesome, but does anyone have a larger version of the art? The picture on all the website seems a bit small...
I hope the new album has more Matias solos Fingers crossed!

The artwork looks like it was done by whoever did Jørn's two latest solo outings, but most modern stuff looks the same so I could be wrong.
See what I listen to, God damnit: www.last.fm/user/GlovesElectric
Re: Stratovarius new EP "Darkest Hours" NEWS!!!
Now we have all this info I think it's time for some official news from the band. Tracklist and stuff. Updates about the forthcoming studioalbum. Etc.
I'm really in love with the Darkest Hours artwork!
