I saw them live once, before the dark times. Before the lockdowns. As Sonata Arctica support. Pretty sure they had a different singer back then though. That one sounds like a discount Fabio Lione. :lol:

He really does, I noticed that too 😄

Civilization, in fact, grows more and more maudlin and hysterical; especially under democracy it tends to degenerate into a mere combat of crazes; the whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, most of them imaginary. - H.L. Mencken

Look at that, Xandria got yet another vocalist...

I want to like them, really, but they keep pulling the rug from under me every time I get used to the new lead vocalist. :p

I'm probably the odd one out who liked the first one best.

You're not alone, the first one was my favourite aswell. It might be because it's the first one I listened to aswell. I still got the music video DVD somewhere 😂

Why has elegance found so little following? Elegance has the disadvantage that hard work is needed to achieve it and a good education to appreciate it. - Edsger Wybe Dijkstra

I drove past the Sabaton tour trucks going to work, so I'm on a binge.

Of which Lord Worm, formerly of Cryptopsy fame, can attest:

“Political philosophers have often pointed out that in wartime, the citizen, the male citizen at least, loses one of his most basic rights, his right to life; and this has been true ever since the French Revolution and the invention of conscription, now an almost universally accepted principle. But these same philosophers have rarely noted that the citizen in question simultaneously loses another right, one just as basic and perhaps even more vital for his conception of himself as a civilized human being: the right not to kill.”
 
-Jonathan Littell <<Les Bienveillantes>>
Quote

"The chancellor, the late chancellor, was only partly correct. He was obsolete. But so is the State, the entity he worshipped. Any state, entity, or ideology becomes obsolete when it stockpiles the wrong weapons: when it captures territories, but not minds; when it enslaves millions, but convinces nobody. When it is naked, yet puts on armor and calls it faith, while in the Eyes of God it has no faith at all. Any state, any entity, any ideology that fails to recognize the worth, the dignity, the rights of Man...that state is obsolete."

-Rod Serling
