Album Notes & Community Reviews

The first installment of a highly ambitious double-album project, the Finnish quintet dramatically expands their power metal sound with a massive 40-piece choir and string orchestra. 'Elements Pt.1' is an incredibly epic, uplifting, and highly melodic release that heavily features neoclassical shredding and vast symphonic arrangements.
