Honestly, when I first heard this release, I wasn't that impressed! Sonata Arctica offers a different style than anyone else within the power metal genre, and it may take a few listens to get use to. Once it made sense to me what these guys are doing, they have become one of my favorite bands! Like Savatage, Sonata Arctica creates an atomosphere with there music. Don't get me wrong, they sound nothing like Savatage, but they have a talent for bringing out what they are feeling through their music. Basically, Sonata Arctica is power metal at its best! Hopefully, these guys will play at the ProgPower fest in Atlanta sometime!
