“It is addictive, just like the original and you fall in love with it again, even after the 15 years that have passed. I promise.”
POWERMETAL.DK, Sophie Ruhnke

I would go so far as to say that I much prefer this rerecord over the original, everything about this effort is polished and charming. Delivering a massive chunk of pure power in one fifty minute blast.
METALMOUTH (UK)

„SONATA  ARCTICA present ten classics of melodic Power Metal. No matter if ‚My Land’, ‚Replica’ or ‚Fullmoon’ – all those songs fascinate after all these years same way, as 15 years ago, with the original ones.”
LEGACY (D)

While currently on yet another successful World Tour, this time to support their latest studio-album »Pariah’s Child«, Finnish Melodic Metal heroes SONATA ARCTICA swung by the studio to re-record their debut album »Ecliptica«, which was released 15 years ago.

Henrik „Henkka“ Klingenberg comments:
“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 line-up. 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.”
