Brento, I need to check that out when I get home tonight. Evaluating on iPhone speakers is not a good time. Lol
Matias, Looking around for good demos is frustrating to me. I want to hear riffs, I don't want to hear off-time chugging with single note lines thrown in just because. One of my all time favorites is Jon Schaffer and THATS the guitar sound I want to emulate. As it stands now, the only half decent demo I've seen of the Lithiums is Jared Dines and I kinda hate his tone across all of his vids.

(Yes there's more to the guitar sound than pickups. But, I'm always looking around for what's going to point me in the right direction.)
Also, Stratovarius rules. The latest album is in constant rotation when I'm driving around
I got my copy of Eternal signed by all 5 of the members back in February 
I think it just might be my favorite Stratovarius album, and I'm a MASSIVE fan of Dreamspace, outside of that sluggishly boring Wings of Tomorrow. Maybe being able to sing along at the show helped 
Oh and I got to see Cain's Offering live in Osaka as well, 3 weeks after Strato. It's also the reason I own an ESP (darn you Jani!!!)
I will never watch another Jared Dines video ever again. That piece of excrement spent so much time bashing Kiesel because he got endorsed by Chapman or someone. He totally blew his review of the LPM and the way he blew it was just so disgusting that I can't watch him.
I never saw him bash Kiesel, then again, I don't pay attention to his channel much.
And Cain's Offering is fantastic! I wish they would tour the states.
