, Once begun to be Sonata Arctica the legitimate successors of the former Europe, have always like more away from their straightforward Scandinavian Heavy Hard Rock. And now, on the new album, in fact, they sound a little neo-classic like Symphony X. For me actually an absolute reason to buy, I am many years a huge Sympohny X -. Fan Only just, "so sound like" or " similar elements used as "far does" have the same quality as ". Unia is a huge chunk, crammed to the brim with ideas. After the "pleasure" of the album I felt like this, as for a family pack M & M's with additional butter and icing: Sated, of enjoyment hardly a trace. Sonata Arctica have obviously a mess with an incredible enthusiasm every idea that came to them straight to mind. Since song ideas go partly from the 10-second clock. This makes all places inaudible. To give the songs a common thread, which they have often completely missed. I like challenging progressive music very much, but this is just haphazard. The vocal lines are capable all hardly hold together. Sonata Arctica will be progressive, but are merely immature in this form. Here quantity is unfortunately before quality.
