    What's YOUR favorite Sonata Arctica album?

    Agreed, deffo the best album! This medley was super nostalgic, so many sick songs!

      Had a hard time choosing one tbh, but the song writing in Reckoning Night is the best to me. So much variety in the songs it's not boring listening to it all! Thanks!

    Awesome as always! My favourite SA album is Ecliptica, because they got it so damned right. Not a single weak song and it transmits so much energy. For me it is pure, distilled Power Metal. One of my favourite albums ever, and IMO quite possibly the best of its decade. In fact, Ecliptica set the bar so high that Silence looks weak by its side (even if it´s an album many bands can only dream about). Then there came Winterheart´s Guild, which is better than Ecliptica but it doesn´t feel as having caught lightning in a jar. And then there´s Reckoning Night which is also incredible. Much more variety there, ultra competent songwriting, the combo Wildfire - White Pearl, Black Oceans could be an album of the year by itself...
    Then why Ecliptica if it´s not that good? Sometimes music cannot be measured.

      Yes agree with a lot of what you said! I think Ecliptica has a kind of rawness to it that the other albums don't have which makes it unique. So many good songs and pure Power Metal!

    Pretty nice! Would love to see you do a Ecliptica-medley, since this is my favourite album (I discovered them back then when they just released it and instantly fell in love).
    Looking forward to see them live in 8 days with Stratovarius and the incredible Induction :3

    日本より。ほとんど同意です。
    1st〜3rdのクオリティも凄まじく高いが、レコニングナイトで1段階ステージが上がった感覚を覚えた。
    円熟したソングライティングにサウンド、彼らが他のメタルバンドとは完全に別のものになった事を証明するものだと思う。ミスプレイスドのイントロは未だに興奮する。

    I thought you sang better than Tony kakko when you performed his songs. then I'll be completely honest with you. never stop singing. You are professional. Greetings from Norway

    Also my favourite album of theirs, and you made a fantastic rendition of it. I come back to it every now and then. And I agree, not only does it have White Pearl Black Oceans on it, which together with Don't Say a Word, which are their 2 best songs ever in my opinion. Third would be Last Drop Falls. It's hard to believe soon the album will be 20 years old:O

    • @ArnoVlmt

    @NegiTaiMetal011 Год назад +1

    I agree that Reckoning Night is my most favorite Sonata album and the first Sonata album I ever listened to. Ecliptica is still awesome, but I feel Reckoning Night has something majestic about it. Most favorites are Misplaced, Ain't Your Fairytale, My Selene, White Pearl Black Oceans.
    Hopefully you do this medley video of other Power Metal and other metal bands you're into.

    • @ArnoVlmt

      Unia was such a unique one to me too! Perfect balance between old and new Sonata for me with very interesting melodies.

    What is your opinion on First in Line?

    • @ArnoVlmt
      @ArnoVlmt  Год назад +4

      Yes Ecliptica is so good too! Destruction Preventer being my favorite track from the album.
      I found First in Line to be a promising song for the rest of the album. Not mind-blowing but a good opener 👍
      Loved how you can hear the "old" style coming back!
