This is by far the best they've made yet! The production and originality lacks a lot, but the performance and songwriting is WAY way better than all the last albums

Ashame they disbanded; They sound like they're only just beginning to get descent..

oh well

Perhaps this album is better than their first two albums (I don't know as I didn't listen to it), but it means very little. The first two albums sucked big time, especially "Age Of Aquarius".

Good riddance, if you ask me. One less shitty flowermetal band on the scene. I never miss them when they call a quit.

I thought Age of Aquarius was actually one of the best. At least it wasn't devoid of any themes like the one before it (New Era) and Gus's voice fitted the style of the album better. I think the problem was the band thought it could just release music from scratch to be as big as Stratovarius. Big mistake made there.

Is weird, their best effort and Timo call it quits... just when they began to do excellent music at last...

Tolkki and weirdness go hand in hand, in case you don't know.

You are SOOO right! It seems that the brain-attack that he suffered in 2004 left him fully insane! Just that explains the HORRORFUL Stratovarius' epynomous album and the first two RR albums

I don't hate him. What I feel for him is pity. I just find it sad because I considered him as a great metal musician and songwriter in the 90s but he felt very low at some point and, imo, he never recovered. I think it would be better for his dignity to leave the metal scene completely.

With the release of Age of Aquarius I began to think the same, but after listening this new album I hope that the promised PROJECT STRATO will be soon in the making Is something like his last chance of a redemption as a musician.

Shame the band with above average music like this can't get a concert? they just need to hire an above average agents...

Looks like Tolkki is not playing the guitar solos on this album.

Check out this press report.[url= http://tolkkicantplay.blogspot.com/2010/11/ex-stratovarius-guitarist-took-credit.html] Tolkki can't play[/url].

Or maybe its just another lie, like the female vocalist who was taking over from TK, or, Tolkki getting stabbed by a fan.....the guy is a loon.

Yep.. and if you give the new Symfonia album a listen, you can almost tell that he played none of the solos in Trinity. How embarassing!

Their weakest album. "New Era" was pretty solid and that's it...
