Thank you wery many!!! The Godfathers of Power Metal from Finland!!! Although after so many changes and what not, there are no original members left in the Band. Since 1984 and still rockin!!! I saw them live first time in 1985 in Finland. So many great memories, so many festivals and concerts in Europe. So many amazing albums, yes, vinyl and double albums with huge covers and great "pictures". Timo Tolkki was great, but...the other Timo is great, humble, funny and always ready to help like younger vocalists, giving advises and coaching. They have such a catalogue of great songs, that this will be your new "Rabbit hole". Best Regards from Finland!!!
Timo Tolkki's original band, but he left in 2008. If you want to see them with him you'll have to look for something older than that. Check out X Japan, btw, if you want to see japan's best kept secret. They're bigger than Elvis over there, but the rest of the world is only marginally aware of them. "Kurenai", "X", "Art of Life", "Endless Rain", "Rose of Pain", preferrably from 1997 or earlier with the orignal guitarist Hide.
@@supi9941 He was amazing. I just think that classic songs of any band should be reviewed for the first time listening to the original line up. Starting review from the roots you know

@@d-fens3055 yes I can agree with that
He has his own band now. Timo Tolkki's Avalon, I think it's called. Pretty good stuff.
Stratovarius ❤️
Imagine Beethoven going to king and say.. "today i've got you something that fucking blow your mind" tilulilu with harpsicord and boom :D
The new Stratovarius album "Survive" is brilliant and was released just a few weeks ago. Brilliant band. 🔥🤘
Dude, that keyboard sound is Harpsichord! Its the classic patch used by keyboardists in PowerMetal.
Si Mozart levantara la cabeza fliparia en colores!!! Vaya clavicordio! 🤟😍😎
Harpsichord. Enough said. Black Diamond is a legendary power metal piece
The worst you can do to a metal band is to keep pausing the song, you dont do that or you start all over again
