Renay Gonzalez – female voice (on track 4).Nik Van-Eckmann – male voices (on tracks: 1, 4, 7 and 13).Timo Kotipelto – backing vocals and last line (on track 3).Tony Kakko – vocals, additional keyboards.Track listĪll tracks written by Tony Kakko. 'The Power of One' is the longest Sonata Arctica song to date, at a length of 10:40, not including an extra minute of silence in the end. The second track 'Weballergy' is considered by Kakko to be a sequel to Ecliptica's 'Blank File', as both of them cover the theme of Internet privacy. The title of the album was at first supposed to be longer, but Kakko's then girlfriend suggested 'silence' and he reflected on how important silence was for him: However, Tony explained that the cover was not supposed to feature too much symbolism, except for the footprints leading away from the campfire. Expect great things from this band, even if their latest album falls short of greatness.The cover art, featuring a landscape divided into night, summer and winter, was meant to depict nature. The album could have done without including a re-recording of 'San Sebastian' (from the Successor EP) and 'Tallulah', as they do nothing but take up valuable space. I dunno, maybe I'm too old to ride this rollercoaster. The album's strongest moments, in my opinion anyway, are featured in the toned-down tracks like 'The End Of This Chapter', 'Sing In Silence' and monster epic 'The Power Of One'. Of particular note are 'Black Sheep' and 'Land Of The Free', two songs destined to become crowd favourites thanks to some brilliant hooks and earworm melodies. Silence is the second full-length album by Finnish power metal band Sonata Arctica, released in 2001 through Spinefarm Records.

For those that love it when this band travel their Stratovarian 'do ya wanna go faster?' groove, you won't be disappointed, because there's plenty of speed to be heard. Fortunately, the cover art is not a reflection of the material pressed onto disc. Guaranteed not to sell very many tour shirts on the road, mark my words. That's gotta be the worst album cover I've ever seen, I kid you not.
