Our Take

Timo Tolkki's Avalon has descended upon us once again, this time with The Enigma Birth. And what a birth it is, folks. From the opening track, "The Enigma Birth," it's clear that Tolkki is not messing around. With soaring vocals, thunderous guitar riffs, and enough key changes to make your head spin, this album is a wild ride from start to finish.

But don't let the bombast fool you - there is real artistry at work here. Tracks like "War of Souls" and "Truth" showcase Tolkki's ability to craft complex, emotional compositions that stick with you long after the music has stopped. And let's not forget the guest appearances - the talents of singers like Marina La Torraca and Raphael Mendes only add to the album's already impressive lineup.

Sure, The Enigma Birth may not be for everyone. If you're not a fan of bombastic power metal, you may find yourself reaching for the nearest earplug. But for those who are willing to embrace the madness, this album is a true gem. So crank up the volume, throw up those devil horns, and let Timo Tolkki take you on a musical journey you won't soon forget. Trust us, you won't regret it.

About the artist

Timo Tolkki's Avalon

Timo Tolkki's Avalon is a larger-than-life project from the Finnish power metal maestro himself. Known for his time with legendary bands like Stratovarius and Revolution Renaissance, Tolkki has a knack for crafting epic, symphonic metal anthems that transport listeners to fantastical realms. Avalon, named after the mystical island from Arthurian legend, is Tolkki's grand experiment in bringing together some of the most talented vocalists in the metal world for a series of concept albums. From soaring ballads to lightning-fast guitar solos, Tolkki's signature style is on full display in every Avalon track. With a voice that can shatter glass and a stage presence that's larger than life, Tolkki is a force to be reckoned with in the metal scene. His flamboyant fashion sense and charismatic persona make him a true rock star in every sense of the word. But don't be fooled by the glitz and glamour of Tolkki's Avalon – beneath the bombastic arrangements and theatrics lies a genuine passion for storytelling and pushing the boundaries of what metal can be. Tolkki's innovative approach to songwriting and his willingness to take risks set him apart from the pack, earning him a dedicated fan base that spans the globe. So, whether you're a die-hard metalhead or just looking to inject a little fantasy into your music collection, Timo Tolkki's Avalon is sure to have something for everyone. Strap in, turn up the volume, and prepare to be swept away on a sonic journey like no other.
