The reissue campaign was set to begin with one of the band’s most
successful and loved albums “Destiny” (originally released in 1998) and
the cult live album “Visions Of Europe” (originally released in 1998).
After coming out as a Digipak in 2016, both albums will finally be
released on 180g vinyl due to huge demand.
“Destiny”, with its opulent, bombastic melodies and strong song
structures, is regarded as one of the most important albums in the genre
of melodic metal and secured the pole position in their home country
Finland. This is partly thanks to the hit “S.O.S.” which made it to #2 in
the Finnish single charts. The 2016 edition of the album included the rare
live bootleg “Visions Of Destiny” which has been recorded in October
1999 during their triumphant, album accompanying tour. With over 60
minutes, the LP perfectly captures the band’s energetic live spirit.
