Sonata Arctica is one of the most versatile bands in the world. they do speed, they do thrash, they do prog, they do power ballads, they do it all! this is a great overview of thier best tracks, such as My Land, Replica and my personal favorite, Wolf and Raven. the sound quality is very good for a live album, and the guitars/bass/drums/synths/voice sound astounding. get this before any other album

5.0 out of 5 stars It's a Rip at $53. Get it at Century Media for $9.99, July 21, 2008

Where does Amazon think they can rip you off, selling this for $22 PLUS a "Finders Fee" of $32? The fee is more than the price of the Import! This is a total Ripoff at $53.

I got mine from Century Media for $9.99 + $2 S&H. I would not be surprised if Century Media was Amazon's "Source".

Trust me, for good heavy metal, always check in with Century Media first.

This review is from: Songs Of Silence: Live In Tokyo (Audio CD)

Sonata Arctica decided to make a live album after only two studio albums. It's not a bad thing but maybe it could have been better to release it after three or four albums although they had many great songs to perform. Actually almost every song is worth performing. Something had to left out. The classic songs "San Sebastian", "Destruction Preventer", "Tallulah", "8th Commandment", and the first single track "UnOpened" don't appear in this live album. There's however great tracks from their second and first album. The songs "Kingdom for a Heart", "FullMoon", "Replica", and "My Land" can be found in "Ecliptica" and others in "Silence" ("Respect the Wilderness" only in Japanese version of "Silence"). The keyboards are excellent...Mikko Harkin really gives his best through the gig. The songs "Kingdom for a Heart", "False News Travel Fast" etc wouldn't be so good withouth the solos. Also the Japanese audience can be with Sonata Arctica. They shout and sing very good with Tony Kakko (the vocalist). Most remarkable is the song "FullMoon" in which the audience sings "Runaway, runaway...". The live gig includes enough ballads but not too much. "Sing in Silence", "Last Drop Falls", "The End of This Chapter", and "Replica" are really great time to peace after the songs like "Kingdom for a Heart", "False News Travel Fast", and "Respect the Wilderness". The end is like it should be: "Wolf & Raven"...the song that made them famous...an upbeat and angry song.
Stars: FullMoon, False News Travel Fast, Kingdom for a Heart, Last Drop Falls
