When it's good, it's incredibly good. At the same time, it also proves the longer a Tolkki song is, the drearier it's likely to be. See the Elements duology for more...

A close 10 specially for 1996. Even today, it's amazing. Visions was more memorable but for a power metal fan it's on par with their best "Visions" & "Infinite". For god's sake, even the Japanese bonus track is one of my favorite Stratovarius songs "When The Night Meets The Day" which you can also find on the "Intermission" album.

I'm not the biggest Power Metal fan, but this album along with Visions is awesome.

Episode... Or I must say... the most melodic album ever made  The homonymous instrumental song is PRECIOUS!!!!  My favorite song... Could be Will The Sun Rise or also Night Time Eclipse (DAT CHORUS ENDING!).
---- BARDS WE ARE, BARDS WE WILL BE!

My second favorite Strat' album after Dreamspace. What makes Episode so great in my eyes, is the fact that it possesses every positive characteristic Stratovarius has ever had but very little to none of the actual bad ones, like annoying and very forced sing-a-long choruses for example. Damn those slower songs. This could be my absolute favorite from them if it wasn't for those slower ones in the middle.
---- You've got a lot of guts. Let's see what they look like!
