Avantasia - New Studio Album Completed


Exciting news for Avantasia fans. The band's mastermind Tobias Sammet revealed that the work on the upcoming studio album, the follow-up to 2019's Moonglow, is officially completed. More info and details coming soon.

Statement from Tobias: "Listening to the final master. So happy with this album. Never before I had two years to work on an album without any interruption, doing many little things myself again like on earlier Edguy and Avantasia records. Sascha said in certain passages it sounds a bit more like older Avantasia or even Edguy and I know what he means. It's the best of old and new, the best of both worlds without being an intentional leap back to the roots. I just did a lot of stuff myself as on earlier albums. You can hear all my influences and yet it's typical Avantasia, Power Metal, Hard Rock, Rock, Pop, Epic Rock, Speed Metal... stay tuned for a sound clip teaser, I guess it won't take too long..."

He says it will sound like earlier Avantasia, and early Edguy, so this sounds like good news to me, I'm looking forward to hearing it.

Last album was good, I wouldn't mind another one like that. Ofc "Metal Opera III" would be even better, but that isn't quite likely

In the end, it's still going to sound like pop power metal.

I don't mind a bit of power pop metal, as long as it's not too cheesy, and has solid riffs and decent vocals

We can only hope and assume. I remember last year Rolf saying the next Running Wild album was going to be the best yet, it turned out to be average at best.
