Sonata Arctica formed back in 1996 and the band members were vocalist Tony Kakko, guitarist Jani Liimatainen, drummer Tommy Portimo, keyboardist Mikko Harkin, and bassist Janne Kivilahti. Their first single was "UnOpened", which was released on Spinefarm Records in July of 1999. Sonata Arctica have released some very good albums such as “Winterheart’s Guild” and “Reckoning Night”. What we have here is a fine album full of catchy vocal melodies, great orchestrations and an overall good production. Ok, this one is a bit different from their previous works, cause of some darker elements and some experiments in their sound, but in my opinion is a very good album. All in all this album is a fine example of good music from a very good band, which shows some more maturity in their songwriting. I think that this album will take a few more spins but in the end you will discover a damn good album!
