Mr. Not Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 Some fun facts about Sonata real quick, the first of which is relevant to the recent discussion about 'metal': -Though they've never been classified as rock rather than metal, Tony and Henrik have gone on record a few times saying they think of themselves as a rock band before they do a metal one -Henrik says that if he could open for a band, he'd like it to be Rush, and one of his biggest inspirations of all-time is Frank Zappa -When asked what Henrik brought to the band upon joining, he enthusiastically answered "ORGANS!!" -- and it's true. Listen to Ecliptica, Silence, or Winterheart's Guild and there's no trace of organs... Reckoning Night however? Organs galore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be honest I can totally hear it with the variety of keyboard sounds Henkka uses.. And I'm half-way confident that this little marimba/steel-drum sounding keyboard bit is directly Zappa inspired Zeroes is such a kick-ass song, among my top favorite three of TDoG.. Great message too, all those governing war causing superheroes fall short without all those (1)000,000,000,000's 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It Wont Fade is a long time favorite of mine from Unia - it's the wolf song of the album :) Let me just saw that Unia is one of those albums that truly gets better with each listen.. I love it more than ever now, years after initially hearing it... Seriously, what an album... I'm glad Tony spilled his morbid heart out in this album, the result is truly intriguing :D 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I adore Days Of Grays still but I can't deny Unia has taken over my interest! I'm sad to be honest it's taken me over a decade to get into this band. They really would have enriched my growing up!

Mr. Not Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 i love Mr Not's avatar. that is a kick ass album. Mick Listening to a lot of Kate Bush as of yesterday night.. Happy to revisit her, and I think I'll move on to her later albums (2000s) which I've never listened to before soon. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Not Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 (edited) Segue, I'm extremely happy you're into Sonata, and for entirely selfish reasons I like being able to discuss the band on a musical level (the fangirl I used to discuss them with would focus too much on how much she loved Tony, and while I don't blame her, I'm more interested in music), and you've given birth to a new appreciation to this band for me. It's like I'm back in 2009!! I'm very excited for the Ninth album Hour :cheers: Edited September 19, 2016 by Mr. Not 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's like I'm back in 2009!! I'm very excited for the Ninth album Hour :cheers: Oh I'm glad! I remember last year when I decided to try them again out of the blue (I had Don't Say A Word in my head, which I hadn't heard since like 2006), a few were like "who is this?". You must have been the one to help me out! I forget but now I'm buying there stuff and properly dedicated it's been great sharing the experience fully! I just adore them. They've become dear to me in a very fast way...the love I have for them at the moment is what I felt for Nightwish last year (and still do now). The last two albums haven't been the greatest...they are still great. I am so in love with this band it is ridiculous! I have really enjoyed discussing them as well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Segue Myles Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 Jimmy eat World.......this band hits me in the gut. the lyrics.......the melodies. I was listening to Bleed American.......what stunning Record. Mick They were kicked off their label after Clarity flopped. They wanted a hit record. They wrote Bleed American. Then shopped for a new label. Got picked up by Dreamworks. Killer album...they sacrificed not an ounce of integrity and made one of the greatest pop rock albums in history. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
