Acoustic Adventures - Volume One: Blue Vinyl 2LP

Finnish melodic power metal masters Sonata Arctica are known for their unique, instantly - recognizable sound. They've released ten studio albums, taking listeners into a world of Nordic splendor since their debut 'Ecliptica'. Now, they're starting a new chapter with 'Acoustic Adventures – Volume One'. Here, they strip away the metal elements to reveal beautiful acoustic songs that still capture the band's essence. After successful acoustic tours in 2016 and 2019, the demand to record these intimate renditions was clear. Recorded in summer 2020, this album features new arrangements. With over a hundred songs to choose from, not all experiments worked, but there was no shortage of material. Starting with tour - favorites and adding personal gems, the album offers a fresh take on classic tunes. Songs like 'The Rest Of The Sun Belongs To Me' and 'A Little Less Understanding' showcase the band's new - found solace in these tender versions. Even challenging songs like 'Wolf & Raven' on acoustic piano add to the album's charm. 'For The Sake Of Revenge' is a special track that no one has heard live in its acoustic form yet.

To enjoy this album, simply put the vinyl on your turntable and let the music play. Make sure your turntable is set up correctly and the needle is in good condition for the best sound quality. When handling the vinyl, always hold it by the edges to avoid fingerprints and scratches. After each use, return the vinyl to its sleeve to protect it from dust. Store the album in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and heat to prevent warping. If you notice any dust on the vinyl, use a soft, anti - static brush to gently clean it before playing.
