Gli STRATOVARIUS hanno recentemente pubblicato tramite earMUSIC il loro ultimo album “Survive”. Oggi la power metal band finlandese è lieta di presentare il video della title-track: https://youtu.be/p3QlBTsL9pg
Il commento del tastierista Jens Johansson:
“Abbiamo trascorso cinque o sei giorni cercando di trovare il testo per quella canzone. Quando finalmente ci siamo accordati su quella battuta finale per il chorus ci siamo resi conto del fatto che fosse una buona canzone sulla sopravvivenza. Si adatta anche alla storia della band perché siamo riusciti a sopravvivere per tutto questo tempo. Questa band ha passato dei giorni strani! La formazione originale si è formata nel 1984, è una lunga storia… Era la metà dell’estate scorsa, c’erano incendi boschivi ovunque, c’era una pandemia globale e un sacco di altre cose decisamente sbagliate. Alcuni dei testi sono forse meno edificanti di quanto avrebbero potuto essere ma questo riflette il nostro stato d’animo al momento. Ci sono anche un sacco di cose positive!”

ABOUT STRATOVARIUS:
Stratovarius – the Scandinavian flagship of Symphonic Metal and one of the most famous bands of their genre in the world, managed to establish themselves as one of the top names in the Metal scene and have since influenced bands all over the world.
The Finnish band gained international success with albums like ‘Fourth Dimension’ (1995), ‘Episode’ (1996) and their epic project ‘Elements, Pt. 1’ (a peak in their Progressive and Symphonic style of Power Metal) and ‘Elements, Pt.2’ – to name just a few of the band‘s milestones. In 2009 ‘Polaris’ marked a fresh start for the band as guitarist and band leader Timo Tolkki left the band. Instead of being a difficult re-start, ‘Polaris’ showed Stratovarius in top form and perfectly able to captivate people all over the world: The album became a hell of a comeback and charted higher than the previous releases around the globe. Since then, Stratovarius continue to walk the path of success, inspiring fans and other bands, young and old, all over the world.
