Ah, finally someone who does think WHG is their best 'old' album...

Well, seriously, Ecliptica and Silence are quite nice, but WHG is just so much more well rounded and filled with their own identity - even the "crazy" which was introduced in traces on Reckoning Night and later full on in Unia. And plus, Tony Kakko finally found his own voice on WHG... his singing on Ecliptica was full of Timo Kotipelto influences, and plain weird on Silence sometimes.

I always thought that was due to his asthma, although I have no idea which type of asthma does he have and in which ways does it affect his voice. Except that it was always harder for him to sing live when there's a lot of smoke in the club, but his condition has been improving a lot ever since 2008-2009, from that point on you could notice his live singing is sometimes even better than on the albums.

In that case, man is only air as well.

I have high hopes for this one considering that their last album was one of their better ones IMO.

Can't wait!!! Wildfire II and III...


let me reinforce with one more

The cover art is good, the song titles are kinda weird and there's something from the same "family" of wildfire.

I guess we're good to go.

Ok, so we have "talented guest artists" + "country feels with a twist". It all adds up to...
