SONATA ARCTICA Clear Cold Beyond interview with Tony Kakko ❄️

New to the channel?

SONATA ARCTICA have been many things in their storied career: Finnish power metal messiahs, relentless touring powerhouses, masters of sublime melody. But above all, they’ve been stalwarts of the magic and enchantment that flows through heavy metal. Since their inception in 1995, they’ve embodied the splendour and serenity of Nordic nature, captivating the world with 10 albums, EP’s and countless tours. They are ambassadors of metal illuminated by the Northern lights, of hymns dedicated to the midnight sun. Their latest, eleventh effort, »Clear Cold Beyond,« carries the torch of their shining legacy into the future, delivering yet another magnum opus of Finnish power metal wizardry, and bowing to their fabled past.

I sat down with Tony Kakko to delve deep into the Clear Cold Beyond,
