Sonata Arctica : Extrait de la nouvelle version de "Ecliptica"

Sonata Arctica vient de dévoiler un premier extrait de la version ré-enregistrée de leur premier album, "Ecliptica". Sorti à l'origine en 1999 sous le label Spinefarm Records, le groupe est retournait en studio pour le ré-enregistrer à l'occasion des 15ans de celui-ci. 

Cette nouvelle version a été enregistrée avec le line-up actuel et sortira le 29 Octobre via Nuclear Blast sous le nom de "Ecliptica - Revisited; 15th Anniversary Edition".  

Henrik "Henkka" Klingenberg: "When it first was suggested to us by our Japanese label that we'd re-record our debut album, 'Ecliptica', it felt a bit weird, but somehow the idea grew on us. Being that only Tony and Tommy played on the original one, we thought that it would be a fun thing to do, to give these great songs another run.

"We're definitely not trying to re-write history. The original 'Ecliptica' is the starting point of this band and a very special album with a certain feel of innocence and enthusiasm which cannot be recreated as such since we're not teenagers anymore. Having said that, this new version is more of a tribute and an update on how these songs sound when played by our current lineup. We wanted to stay true to the original album as much as possible and not turn this into some weird re-arranged project where you couldn't tell which song was being played.

"So here it is, the 15th anniversary version of 'Ecliptica'. Hope you enjoy it, we certainly had a good time digging into these songs and laying down the tracks."
