	Sonata Arctica - Ecliptica
		Sonata Arctica surprised just about everyone when they released their debut album, Ecliptica, in 1999.
		Though Sonata Arctica didn't wow everyone with their originality-they were following Stratovarius's Helloween/Malmsteen influenced power metal blueprint very closely- they still managed to stun the metal world with outstanding musicianship and absolutely beautiful vocal melodies.
		Though Stratovarius is clearly the band's main influence on this album, Sonata Arctica doesn't just mindlessly ape their power metal forefathers as they do a masterful job of crafting truly memorable songs.

	PROGRESSIVEWORLD.NET: REVIEWS BY GARY CARSON
		But that doesn't mean that Sonata have sat on their laurels, because they still deliver a speedy tour-de-force of Finnish power metal - with ripeness and clever song-writing written with speed and melody in mind.
		Like their previous albums, the opening song is stunning and "Abandoned, Pleased, Brainwashed, Exploited" is one of the most solid tracks Sonata have written and whilst not breaking the mould too much, the song is extremely catchy.
		Sonata Arctica have again included plenty of tempo changes mid-song to mix up the songs.

	Imhotep - Sonata Arctica
		Sonata Arctica has quickly risen to the top of an overcrowded scene to emerge as Heavy Metal's "band to watch".
		It was actually pretty stupid; the same day we ended recording sessions we started mixing, so the same day the last note was laid on the track, I flew to Helsinki to begin the mixing process.
		Of course, a Sonata Arctica album wouldn't be complete without a handful of ballads, as well.

	Compare Prices and Read Reviews on Silence - Sonata Arctica at Epinions.com
		After a very solid debut album these stars in the making not only avoided the sophomore jinx, they managed to top their initial release with an album that is probably in the top five, of power metal, for 2001 & 2002.
		Sonata also has great singing as well as talented songwriting.
		Overcoming the very crowded Power Metal field, Sonata Arctica still will stand strong once the field has thinned out, because a band with such talent just cannot be swept away.
