Sonata Arctica – Acoustic Adventures – Volume Two 2022+HIRES
Finnish five-piece SONATA ARCTICA need no introduction: besides significantly influencing the power / melodic metal scene, they’re a band that’s not only famous for consistently delivering high quality studio albums but also for experimenting and breaking out of their musical comfort zone. Foremost resulting in some aptly called ”Acoustic Adventures” touring cycles, but also in the release of ‘Volume One’ of their very first acoustic album which saw the light of day in early 2022.
Next Friday SONATA ARCTICA will release the continuation and second chapter of the aforementioned record: “Acoustic Adventures Volume Two” – to complete this special saga and to finally celebrate the kick-off of their next, multiply postponed Acoustic Adventures trip in order to lift up the Corona-shaken Finnish and European mainland minds.
Most of this second chapter consists of faster tracks like ‘Black Sheep’, the all-time live classic ‘FullMoon’ and ‘Flag In The Ground’. But Sonata Arctica wouldn’t be Sonata Arctica if they played it safe: ‘San Sebastian’ or the closing track ‘Victoria’s Secret’ manage to spread a completely new, refreshing feeling to the listener.
