What an amazing record!!

Review Score: (10/10)
Im a fairly new fan of Sonata Arctica, i actually found out about them through Amazon while i was looking for a Luca Turilli album. This band has picked up the mantle from Helloween and taken it into new, more dynamic directions. With elements of power metal and speed metal they blend a perfect, uplifting metal experience. This record has the power to change your mood. With vocals that always compliment and never overpower the music this record is a must have as is the whole Sonata Arctica catalog.
