Following their trip through various acoustic landscapes during the pandemic, Clear Cold Beyond contains ten tracks reviving SONATA ARCTICA’s penchant for power metal-esque songwriting. From high-speed anthems such as “First In Line” and “California” to emotion-laden tracks like “The Best Things” and the closing title track, the record offers something for each and every SONATA ARCTICA fan. The album’s artwork, reminiscent of the art adorning early releases, was created by Niko Anttila. Additionally, the band returned to mixing engineer Mikko Karmila (1999’s Ecliptica, 2012’s Stones Grow Her Name). Final mastering was handled by Svante Forsbäck (Rammstein, Korpiklaani, Delain, The 69 Eyes, Deathstars) who has also been part of other SONATA ARCTICA productions. “This could have been SONATA ARCTICA‘s self-titled album in the way it reflects both the timish band’s power metal urgency and some kind of Broadway musical storytelling magic.” — Rock Hard (IT), Emanuele Biani “This is the album fans have been asking for for 20 years. Frozen Finnish fury. This band hasn’t been this vital in two decades. Sensational stuff.” — Fistful Of Metal (UK), Bruce Turnbull “Beautiful, oldschool and versatile: A very cold album that fills you with a lot of familiar warmth at the same time.” — Rock Hard (DE), Simon Bauer SONATA ARCTICA: Tony Kakko – vocals Elias Viljanen – guitars Pasi Kauppinen – bass Henrik “Henkka” Klingenberg – keyboards Tommy Portimo – drums http://www.sonataarctica.info http://www.facebook.com/sonataarctica http://www.instagram.com/sonataarcticaofficial http://www.twitter.com/SonataArctica http://www.atomicfire-records.com http://www.facebook.com/atomicfirerecords http://www.instagram.com/atomicfirerecords http://www.twitter.com/atomicfirerec ![]() ![]() |
