Sonata Arctica Appreciation Thread

Fuck yeah...picked up Silence and Winterheart's Guild the other day. Tomorrow I think I'll complete the catalogue, since the local record shop is selling their CDs for only $10 due to the upcoming tour.

The breakdowns kind of sound like Bodom, or Bodom sounds like the breakdowns, whatever you please. Either way, Sonata kills Bodom. I'll be at the 1/20 show in Worcester, MA and possibly the 1/21 show in Montreal.

Please don't compare Sonata to Bodom...

Sonata has much better song writing, the lyrics, the arrangements. All far superiro to anything Bodom has released.

Tony is such an amazingly good singer.. god damn.

Pandemonium has me interested in them...

Which album should I buy first? I'm considering Winterheart's Guild (if thats the correct title) because the song The Cage makes my ass pretty sore from kicking it so hard.
