Sonata Arctica - Reveal New Album Tracklist And Trailer
After announcing the first details of the upcoming album, the guys in Sonata Arctica are now sharing with fans the tracklist and first trailer of Pariah's Child, that will be released on March 28th, 2014 via Nuclear Blast Records. Normally, the music follows next.
Tracklist:
01. The Wolves Die Young
02. Running Lights
03. Take One Breath
04. Cloud Factory
05. Blood
06. What Did You Do In The War, Dad?
07. Half A Marathon Man
08. X Marks The Spot
09. Love
10. Larger Than Life
Enjoy the first trailer, with drummer Tommy Portimo:
Vocalist Tony Kakko had this to say: "There are some instant Sonata-Greatest-Hits songs there, which feels good. I think we reached the result we had in mind, each of us in our own field. We went on to create the next Sonata Arctica power metalesque album and I think we achieved it adequately. I have to say that I had drifted pretty far away from those 'days of thunder', that speedy happy go lucky attitude. I was happy to notice this style can still make me smile. It's good. Music has to do that to me. It also shows the other older songs in a totally new light for me. I can now understand and appreciate why the fans enjoy what we did in the early days."

Delain and Xandria... Bleh. Not two bands I want to really go see with Sonata Arctica... Glad I saw them with Powerglove!  Tracklist doesn't sounds too promising but song names mean nothing.

"...and I think we achieved it adequately." Well, now I'm excited about this album.

Written by WorpeX on 15.01.2014 at 18:01 I was gonna say, dude - hardly the best criteria to pre-judge an album by, unless of course its an Edguy album ("Lavatory Love Machine" anyone). Then again, speaking as a bona fide Tony Kakko fanboy, I'm probably not qualified to make a balanced prediction.

Written by Ruchesko on 15.01.2014 at 19:42 Good song names can pump me up and make me really excited to hear a new album! None of the names on this SA album do that for me. Most of the titles are generic or weird. However, that doesn't mean the songs wont be good! Lavatory Love Machine is a good example of a song with a strange name but its one of my favorite Edguy tunes because its just so ridiculous. There are also plenty of bad songs with great song names out there too...

Written by Irritable Ted on 15.01.2014 at 22:17 Yeah, indeed. I surely hope it will be good suprise to some old sound for both of the bands.

Written by Nemo Atkins on 15.01.2014 at 20:37 Or they deliberately made a boring power metal album to put people off the idea of Sonata going back to their roots and garner more support for the Unia/Grays/Stones direction that Tony had been pushing so much. Tony, your evil plan has been revealed.

Well, so far, so good. Of course stones had a good first track, too... I'll put up with Delain to see this tour... I'm actually pretty happy about Xandria. Not Stratovarius or Kamelot happy, but pretty happy still.

If they could just make a sequel to the entire Silence album, I would be wholly content *ahem* thoroughly aroused by the notion.
