Yes, it’s generic, but Weballergy, False News Travel Fast, Black Sheep, Land of the Free, San Sebastian, and Wolf and Raven are so awesome that it doesn’t matter. There was nothing they did better, and here it shows. Early on, Sonata Arctica still played a style of power metal that was very similar to that of Stratovarius: lots of double-bass drumming, fast riffage and soaring vocals.
Allow me to elaborate…įirst, the fast songs. Basically, on this album, there’s a direct relationship between how fast a song is and how good it is.
Flip a coin labeled “fast song” on heads and “slow song” on tails, and you’ll either get a song that totally kicks ass or one that will make time slow to a crawl. He also has multiple personality disorder, and is so concerned with fate that he has to flip a coin whenever he wants to decide on something significant. Half of his face is very handsome, and the other half is corroded by acid. You know who Two-Face is, don’t you? He’s the guy in Batman who has a fudged-up face, duh. Silence is the Two-Face of Sonata Arctica’s discography.
