El 22 de diciembre de 1995 nace lo que hoy conocemos como Sonata Arctica, cambios de nombres, cambio de músicos, etc. Mucho ha pasado este tiempo y Sonata Arctica sigue activo junto a sus leales fans😎. Feliz Cumpleaños!!. December 22nd of 1995 was the date the Band we know today came to life. Might have a different name and formation back in the day but the essence is the same. Cheers to Sonata Arctica on their 22nd birthday and here's 🍷to many more! #happybirthday #sonataarctica #sonataarcticachike #tonykakko #henrikklinberger #tommyportimo #pasikauppinen #eliasviljanen #janiliimatainen #markopaasikoski #mikkoharkin #JanneKivilahti

THE DARK ELEMENT Feat. Former NIGHTWISH Singer, Ex-SONATA ARCTICA Guitarist: Second Album Completed

THE DARK ELEMENT, the project featuring former NIGHTWISH vocalist Anette Olzon and Finnish guitarist and songwriter Jani Liimatainen, has completed work on its second album. The follow-up to 2017's "The Dark Element" was mixed by Jacob Hansen (VOLBEAT) and will tentatively arrive this fall via Frontiers Music Srl.

Joining Olzon and Liimatainen in THE DARK ELEMENT's current recording lineup are Jonas Kuhlberg on bass and Rolf Pilve on drums.

This past Thursday, Olzon wrote on Instagram: "It's with great joy and pride me and Jani today celebrate that our new album is all ready. Master came today and it sounds amazing. Now I just long for you all to hear it. Kiitoksia ystävä @janiliimatainen for giving me such songs to sing — I loved every single note I sang on the album. And Kiitos to @jonaskuhlberg @rolfpilve who play incredible on the album. And to @hansen_jacob for the hard work with the mixing. And of course a big thanks to @frontiersmusicsrl for standing by us in our music endeavors."

Last fall, Liimatainen stated about the musical direction of the new THE DARK ELEMENT material: "I think the album picks up where the last album left off. It's very heavy, but still hyper melodic, and this time we are even exploring new musical territories we didn't on the previous album. Now that me and Anette have one album together under our belts, we have found the style we want to pursue and also the ideal way of working together. Given all this, I think it's safe to say that with the next album you'll get even more of what made the first album so good, only it's gonna be bigger, better and bolder!"

Anette is widely known for being the immaculate voice on the hit albums from NIGHTWISH, "Dark Passion Play" and "Imaginareum". Jani has been busy in CAIN'S OFFERING alongside STRATOVARIUS singer Timo Kotipelto, but left a deep mark on the minds of all power metal fans thanks to his time in SONATA ARCTICA.

THE DARK ELEMENT made its live debut in June 2018 at the Sweden Rock Festival in Sölvesborg, Sweden. The band also completed a short Japanese tour and performed at the Frontiers Rock Sweden festival in October at Fryshuset Klubben in Stockholm.

Some sketches of moments from Nordic Power Metal Titans concert in Leipzig!

Art of Vodka outro origin, according to Sonata Arctica book. Gave it to Tony and Timo cause SA&Strato tour is a legendary event.

my ugly ironic My Selene poster that I showed to SA and Jani. They found it very funny but didn't play it unfortunatly.

Me exchanging the remains of my sick voice for Tommy's drum stick. was so worth it. Tommy's smile is so precious!

Classical Black Sheep opener. I love this song so much!

I was really impressed by Timo irl. Stratovarius had an insane setlist and Timo did awsome with Frozen in Time progression! Sounded insane live.

I was staying right in front of Jani and he was so great and funny! also appreciated my My Selene poster haha :D

me, Andi (drummer) and Tim from Induction. I had a chance to chat with them after the show, such professional and positive guys! I wish Induction all the best. Got a drum stick from Andi as well haha
