SONATA ARCTICA: Acoustic Adventures – Volume Two Out Today Via Atomic Fire

SONATA ARCTICA needs no introduction. Besides significantly influencing the power/melodic metal scene, they’re a band that’s not only notorious for consistently delivering high quality studio albums but also for experimenting and breaking out of their musical comfort zone. Such musical flexibility has resulted in the aptly titled Acoustic Adventures touring cycles as well as the release of Volume One of their first acoustic album earlier this year – a set of intimate, pure, and heartfelt renditions of their iconic catalog. And today the Finnish power/melodic metal icons unveil the second part of their Acoustic Adventures opus via Atomic Fire!

Like Acoustic Adventures – Volume One, Acoustic Adventures – Volume Two was recorded and produced by Mikko Tegelman alongside the band at Studio57 in Finland while the cover artwork was designed by Janne Pitkänen.

Acoustic Adventures – Volume Two is available as CD Digipack, 2xLP Orange/Black Marbled vinyl and digitally at THIS LOCATION.
