Stratovarious anyone?

[jimid]

Φαίνεται ότι οι τελευταίοι μήνες απραξίας και περιθωριοποίησης του από τα Μέσα, έδωσαν στον Timo Tolkki την ευκαιρία να αναθεωρήσει τις περσινές του αποφάσεις σχετικά με την αλλαγή της σύνθεσης των Stratovarius. Ένα περίπου χρόνο μετά την ανακοίνωση ότι οι Timo Kotipelto (φωνή) και Jorg Michael (drums) αποτελούν παρελθόν για το συγκρότημα, γνωστοποιείται ότι οι Stratovarius συνεχίζουν και μάλιστα με την κλασική τους σύνθεση: Timo Tolkki, Timo Kotipelto, Jorg Michael, Jari Kainulainen και Jens Johansson.

"Τους τελευταίους μήνες υπήρξαν αρκετές συζητήσεις και έτσι οι "βλάβες" μέσα στο συγκρότημα έχουν αποκατασταθεί. Οι υπόλοιποι έχουμε πλέον καταλάβει την κατάσταση του Timo (Tolkki). Καθένας συγχώρησε τους υπολοίπους και οι σχέσεις μας είναι για άλλη μια φορά φιλικές".

Dimitris: You have mentioned STRATOVARIUS before.
Jorg: I don’t want to speak much about STRATOVARIUS. The only thing that the fans should know is that whatever happened in the beginning of this year, it was not the real Timo Tolkki. Timo Tolkki is very ill, mentally. He is better now. Now it’s 31st of October, almost November and he is much better now. But he was really drooping out in the hospital the end of March for several weeks. Out of manic depression the whole band stood still and you also could see that he went crazy from what he did the months before. I always want to take the opportunity to tell all the fans that he was not the real Timo Tolkki. He is much better. I am still in contact with him, he’s still working now. He started to work on new stuff.

Dimitris: New STRATOVARIUS stuff?
Jorg: Yes, but very slowly. He is not able to work every day properly but we hope that he will be better soon. But this is the only thing that I can say for this. Nobody knows what will happen. It’s very very hard to say.

Dimitris: This was a sad situation for the fans of STRATOVARIUS.
Jorg: Of course for the fans it came suddenly. For us in the band now when we look back in the past we see here and there that some things were going already out of hand. You see, sometimes in the past it seemed that he made so crazy decisions but in the end he was so right that we didn’t doubt certain things. But at a certain point like especially Kotipelto and me had some arguments about certain things, this is also why Kotipelto and I left basically. But you shouldn’t forget that we have been in the same line-up for 9 years and we became friends. STRATOVARIUS is and was a real band. And not because somebody is having a hard time I am not leaving the sinking ship like a rat. I am here for helping him. At that moment there are not much what I can do but he knows that when he calls me I will be there. We are in contact, he asked me about new songs, what I am thinking, so let’s see. But it will take a long time.

A new song from the forthcoming Stratovarius album has been suspended by the band’s own record label, Sanctuary Music German Division. The opening intro of that song was supposed to start with the speech of Hitler. According to Timo Tolkki who points out the song is completely anti-Hitler and therefore appeals to the freedom of the art. Tolkki adds that he has always been interested in Hitler and what made Hitler become such a monster, the song is as anti-facist as possible. The lyrics of the song has been sent to the censorship department of the Ministry of the Interior Of Germany, which will make a decision about the legality of the song.

According to an article in the Finnish daily newspaper Iltalehti, STRATOVARIUS' record label is refusing to allow the group to release a newly recorded track featuring a sampled speech by Adolf Hitler.

The song, entitled "Hitler", was recently recorded by the group for inclusion on their next album. However, some of the executives at the German branch of the band's record label, Sanctuary, are objecting to the song's lyrical content and are threatening to pull the song from the album's final track listing.

"I won't give up on the song," Tolkki told Iltalehti. "This is a matter of principle.

"The German Interior Ministry has formed a branch dedicated to preventing youth from being exposed to the Nazi ideology. Our manager sent this special branch the lyrics to the song and the intro to be used in the beginning of the track [containing Hitler's speech]. It is up to them to judge if it is acceptable for release or not. If the Ministry sees this song as inappropriate, I will, of course, refrain from releasing it, and I will record a new version of the track that is acceptable. If, on the other hand, the song is found to be 'legal,' the record company should not have the right to limit my freedom of expression."

Tolkki says that he is certain the Ministry won't have anything against the song.

"It's as strongly against Hitler as a song can be," he claimed.

To prove this, Tolkki read the song's lyrics to the Iltalehti reporter. In the song, Hitler is described as a monster who spread fear across the world.

"These issues have to be discussed," Tolkki explained.

Tolkki said that he has been interested in Hitler-related literature for a long time.

"I have been interested in Hitler since I was a teenager," he said. "As far as I can tell, every child is innocent when born into this world. I'm interested in finding out what happens to turn an innocent child into a Hitler-type figure."

Tolkki said that he doesn't know yet how long it will take for the German Interior Ministry to make a decision regarding the song. However, he believes that it won't delay the making of the group's new album.

"This shouldn't affect that [the recording process for the new album]," he stated confidently. "I believe that we will get the clearance to release the song as it is. [This subject matter is something] that you must be able to talk about."
