Sonata Arctica - Paid In Full [Reaction/Review]

[@norzuuh]

I'd say you should do "White pearl, black oceans" or "Don't say a word" (music video version is heavily edited from album one, not as good) next from these guys! Cool reaction btw :)

[@gravenwolf6535]

You should check their earlier works. Their first albums like ecliptica and silence have some awesome power metal songs.

[@sausagefinger12]

And allso future albums.

[@seanrenzi6481]

Graven Wolf reckoning night is one of their best

[@gredulous2444]

Specially that ecliptica was nice!

[@ricardodosreisschmitt400]

React to "Wolf & Raven", and " Dont say a word" music video from SA.

[@sanpvhati478]

I saw many comments requesting White pearl black oceans. I’ll join, and recommend Kemi live version. It’s incredible preformance!

[@WintersunExtras]

It's hard for me to pick a favourite Sonata Arctica song, but I feel inclined to say either 'Draw Me' or 'White Pearl, Black Oceans'. Tony's a brilliant songwriter.

[@Albatrossi]

Talking about Draw Me, have you seen this cover of it? kzbin.info/www/bejne/kGjCe4utm7GhftU

[@EsaValkama]

Please try some of the older Sonata Arctica stuff. White Pearl, Black Oceans is a good one to try.

[@Alexandros.Mograine]

Finally! maybe do Fullmoon next time? my fav song from them ;)

[@lakabaka]

For sure, they would love it.

[@mailisparrott9186]

Please do End Of This Chapter by them. So creepy lyrics and the whole story! Also White Pearl Black Oceans is a great story.

[@pamelakilponen3682]

Sonata Arctica is from Kemi Finland, that was filmed on sea ice. Check out White Pearl Black Oceans. (Live at Kemi Open Air 2009). I was at that show, and it was about 5 blocks from where I lived at the time. Great band, and Tony Kakko is great friends with everyone in Nightwish.

[@toinenosoite3173]

Frozen Baltic Sea... BTW, I totally understand your referense to Aha, Alphaville and so forth. It is so much part of my teens.

[@belfastclrq]

It has been a while since I last heard this song, great reminder. For some reason whenever I think of Sonata, their 'Kingdom for a Heart' song comes to mind. That would be an interesting react too. If you guys feel like reacting to South-American power metal one of these days, there is a song called 'La Leyenda del Hada y el Mago' by the legendary Argentinian band Rata Blanca. I suspect you would both like it.

[@avengedsevenfold065]

Heck yeah bro I love this song af

[@raunorepomies8621]

Finally, more reactions to Sonata Arctica by you guys! ! ! :D That's one of my favorite bands!

[@MetalRock92]

Small personal fact: This was the first song I've heard from Sonata Arctica and am a fan since. Great Power Metal band for sure.

[@nightlydreamer_]

Nice coincidence, I’m actually going to see them today evening :D

[@Jussi138]

lol it's not "Sonatica Arctica" it's SONATA ARCTICA 😉 the base player Pasi is my old friend from junior high school😎

[@SawtoothEagle]

Bass, not base 😜

[@Jussi138]

@@SawtoothEagle oops 😅 lol I am visually impaired... I didn't notice that mistake😆

[@Dubbel12]

Yes..... finnish keytars are powered by the alcohol in your breath....

[@MikkoRantalainen]

Yes, but to be honest, those are not used for traffic control.

[@7enebriss837]

YES! Sonata Arctica is such an underrated band, granted that their newer stuff is a bit questionable. SA has been my favourite band ever since I was a child (Wintersun is pretty close tho...) and it's good to see other people get into their music as I have. I hope to see more Sonata Arctica -reactions from you guys! (There are plenty of epic keyboard solos to be heard) Perhaps something longer next time, like White Pearl Black Ocean?

[@piotrhadaa47]

I think the newer stuff is just different. I grew really immersed in Stones Grow Her Name or Days of Grays as the time passed. I think more recent releases are kind of more mature in approach therefore different. But that's just personal opinion comming form a die hard SA fan since 2004 (?).

[@7enebriss837]

@@piotrhadaa47 I'm not saying all their new stuff is bad, there are some definite gems among them, but in general I'm not impressed with their last 3 albums. Stones Grow Her Name had the sequels to Wildfire that I really like, but that's about it. Pariah's Child didn't have a single song that stands out to me (MAYBE X Marks the Spot?). The Ninth Hour was pretty decent, I liked about half of the songs on that album and the other half was complete garbage imo. Also the mixing in their newer albums is just plain bad. You can barely hear the guitar.

[@cameronwulff]

They haven't been the same since jani left

[@tarmotammela1769]

Hi guys.try song called false news travel fast from silence album.last part of that song is sang by kotipelto.

[@dadghost7943]

Gonna see them 12 december in the Netherlands @013 Tilburg, still waiting on tour dates for Kamelot. If you want a really great review do Ayreon "Into the electric castle 20th aniversary" available from september 2019 it is awesome...

[@WaDarkPhoenix]

So glad you gave Sonata Arctica another shot, the first song you picked was far from their best. They're a Symphonic/Progressive metal band so their harmonies etc are top notch, and Tony Kakko has one of the better live voices in metal. A few songs I'd recommend checking out: Some of their live acoustic content, Replica, Wolf & Raven, FullMoon, Tallulah, The Cage, Kingdom for a Heart, White Pearl Black Ocean, Victoria's Secret, San Sebastian, Flag in the Ground, Letter to Dana, I have a Right, Shy, Ain't Your Fairytale, M y Selene, The Misery, Shamandalie, Cinderblox, Mary-Lou, Wildfire, Alone in Heaven, It Won't Fade, False News Travels Fast, Sh itload of Money.

[@Loxley81]

For me "Full Moon" is THE Sonata Arctica song! You should definitely react to this!

[@AngelesBustamanteM]

What?!?!?! Those 3 bands on tour together?! :OOO I deeply envy you ;_; Check Sonata Arctica "the last amazing greys" rivers of tears warrantied!

[@georgemckendrickbryce9863]

One of my favourite modern Sonata albums!

[@dale030272]

I love me some Sonata Arctica. A friend of mine introduced them to me while I was stationed in Germany. If I remember the story correctly he did some of the album art for them and I can't for the life of me remember which album lol. I will have to ask him again to get the story straight. He is a web designer and photographer out of Vienna now.

[@SlavomirSihtric]

Something You like the most: Female front vocal + Winter video theme + Melodic Death = Aephanemer - Bloodline Its yesterdays official video from their upcomming album Prokopton, released on 22 march. Perfect time to know them!

[@APREACTS]

You are making a solid case.

[@fatekaesid]

If you want to check out the live songs, try Juliet from Live in Finland DVD. That particular performance just blows my mind every single time.

[@SamiSavolainenSamirai]

I was a tiny bit triggered as you kept mispronouncing sonata as sonatica :D Cool review otherwise! Hopefully you will check their live stuff too because Tony Kakko is a really good singer on stage

[@APREACTS]

Going to see them in Sept.

[@QvistJr]

Hopefully it's an awesome live performance...

[@sanpvhati478]

A&P-REACTS Tony Kakko is superb singer, I’ve seen them live 10 times, but last few times (dec2018, march2019) I’ve noticed hoarseness in his voice and loss of high notes/stamina. Few weeks back at acustic adventures many songs were transposed so he could save his voice and sing lower. Let’s just hope that he hasn’t lost his high notes and stamina alltogether. Sonata Arctica songs are very demanding vocally, but Kakko is a great frontman and will surely pull a great gig even if he can’t sing like in albums :)

[@BryonAutry]

Dude me too, i winced each time he said Sonat-ica instead of Sonat-a. But oh well. lol

[@BryonAutry]

Still, glad you seemed to like it, Pedro. haha

[@joshlara7738]

They did a good cover with I Want Out too. I’d recommend False News Travel Fast, Black Sheep, 8th Commandment, The Cage. Well there’s a lot but those are some of my favs

[@ll7868]

Rage Of Light - Away With You They're trance metal from Switzerland. They also have a pretty good cover of Amon Amarth's Twilight Of The Thunder God, vocalist Melissa Bonney has great range.

[@luhpelegrini]

Hey guys! Fleshgod Apocalypse just release a music video for the single "Sugar", from tier upcoming album "Veleno". You should check it out!

[@yamadojo81]

Sonata Arctica is my favourite band. Your next steps should be Don't Say a Word and White Pearl, Black Ocean (for this one, I suggest the live in Kemi version). Great reactions as always guys.

[@pamelakilponen3682]

I was at that show in Kemi, it was great with Strum Und Drang opening.

[@yamadojo81]

@@pamelakilponen3682 Wow, you were really lucky. As italian, to see Sonata Arctica playing in their hometown in Finland is a great dream. Love to Suomi!

[@sadevento6952]

Do White Pearl, Black Ocean (live in Kemi) next! That song is often regarded as their best. And next time say Sonata, not Sonatica. 🤪

I would never have thought that you would fan Sonata when the first contact was Nightwish

[@dnanything]

Lol, Sonatica Artica. This was a good video though ^.^!

[@EpuoHg]

Sonata Arctica ..not Sonatica Arctica ;) Also the video and song are 12 years old. And yes video was shot on a frozen lake :)

[@bengagnon2894]

Saw them 10 years ago opening for Dragonforce. It was really great. If you love the synth sound, you would love Ayreon!

[@rodrigo486]

Great song

[@vivi1649]

From Sonata you should do *White Pearl, Black Oceans* Live from The Symphonic Metal Library KZbin channel and *8th Commandment* Live from their DVD "For the Sake of Revenge"

[@RedBeardAnubis]

Fullmoon, The Cage and The Wolf & The Raven. All good check them out.

[@timomastosalo]

[@neils123]

I love this song. This whole album is great, IMO, though for whatever reason it doesn't get a lot of love among SA fans. Already got my tix for that Battle Beast/Sonata Arctica/Kamelot show - it's gonna be killer!

[@flampy1]

Sonatica Arctica is a great band!!!1

[@Unswo]

Vorna- Yksin. From Finland.

[@paulwakefield]

Dont Say a Word would be a great one to react to, its a bit heavier than this one and a lot darker. But they have a lot of albums... other standouts, there is one called "Shitload of money" that is a really upbeat rock track... Full Moon is a classic, and Juliet is a really complex track thats really cool. Tony Kakko the singer is good friends with Nightwish, as both bands are from Finland... Sonata arctica toured with nightwish a bunch of times and Tony did (does?) a lot of guest appearances on Nightwish concerts.

[@taddei3912]

Now, this in my kind of metal with clean vocals. P.S. Sorry if I made you mad with my previous comment about harsh/growling vocals & singers using them. P.S.S. Pedro, do you already have a long-haired wig, or is it not required to join Dominators headbanger crew?

The video was filmed on the ice of the northern end of Baltic Sea and the blowups were real. This is really nice song in studio version but live they don't use the backing tracks in keys so it sounds pretty lame with just the piano sound.

A huge fan of the earlier works.
