The Snow Owl is back with a vengeance - or truly with even more cinematic, score-type music? Or maybe... they’ll return to their roots this time and kick some operatic ass?

The Dead Boy lives!

Hopefully this will be more like their older stuff and less like their previous decade of work. I can't remember even one track from their last two albums.

Same here!

unfortunately Tuomas have not listened to metal or barely any music at all since then, so I can never imagine he feels very inspired to make a operatic metal again

Do you think it’ll have another 30-minute track with waterfall sounds?

I sure hope not, but it sounds more realistic than Sacrament of wilderness part 2.

Unless Tarja return in 2028…who knows?

So the plan is to tour 2 new albums in 2028/2029? (the stage could be curious). That would be a bold move. Could the next album be a continuation (theme, style) of the previous one? I guess the style will remain the same, which I'm not a fan of.

Tuomas recently ruled that out.

The second album is probably Auri.

My new theory is that part of the extended touring break is to build up demand for ticket sales and then play 95% material only off of Yesterwynde and the new album. No more Marko songs.

Yes. Tuomas id also voming with a new solo album, can’t wait for that one
