SONATA ARCTICA

YAY I don't think I ever heard a better album than this one. The opening song is brilliant, along with the opening line. The name of the song might be getting you down a bit; Blank File, but the song is excellent. The voices are good and the playing is excellent. High speed, a lot of different melodies and Kingdom For A Heart is very good, but it sounds better as live version, shame they didn't put that on the album as a special bonus track or something. The Cd was released in 1999, when the band was already known as Sonata Arctica. Lucky for us, otherwise we would have had a band with the name Tricky Beans...ow man... In any case, this is definately a CD that you must own, especially if you like bands like Rhapsody and Helloween. Be sure to check also for the revieuw on Successor.
