STRATOVARIUS Guitarist Begins Writing New Material
August 14, 2006STRATOVARIUS guitarist/mainman Timo Tolkki has issued the following update:
"I have started writing songs. It took a while to gather all the equipment, but now I am done and I can let the creativity flow. May the Muse of Music be with me. First, I am gonna write the songs for the next STRATOVARIUS album. This I expect to be completed before our tour starts at the end of September. After that I am gonna fly to Germany to record drums for the demos. I have a pretty good idea how the album will turn out. I have also some projects happening, which I will do, as I have time."
STRATOVARIUS will be touring North America this fall in support of their latest, self-titled effort, which was released in the U.S. last September via Sanctuary. A video for the album's first single, "Maniac Dance", was shot in April 2005 in Helsinki by director and Tolkki's old schoolmate Antti Jokinen (BEYONCÉ, WYCLEF JEAN, KORN, MISSY ELLIOT, NIGHTWISH, SHANIA TWAIN, CELINE DION).
