Finnish Melodic Metal heroes SONATA ARCTICA released a re-recorded version of their debut album »Ecliptica«, which originally came out 15 years ago on October 24th entitled »Ecliptica – Revisited; 15th Anniversary Edition« via Nuclear Blast.
Today the band unveils a special video clip on their cover version of the GENESIS classic ‘I Can’t Dance’, which is available as a bonus track on »Ecliptica – Revisited; 15th Anniversary Edition«.
Check out the hilarious clip here:
I’ve always liked the song. I like many, many GENESIS songs actually, but I remember one day coming up with this idea to do something fun with ‘I Can’t Dance’ and adding the horn sections and see how it sounds.
Sounded great! I had been listening to AEROSMITH a lot around that time and I really like the way the spice up their songs with trombones and trumpets and such. I made a demo, asked a trumpetist Mika Mylläri to polish the horn arrangement and together with saxophonist Sakari Kukko they made the whole thing sounds just perfect. It was legendary. We had Sakari Kukko, Niko Kokko and Tony Kakko in the studio at the same time. I’m very pleased we finally get this baby out. I know it does not sound like your everyday SONATA ARCTICA, but hey, why should it? it’s a GENESIS song. I hope you like it as much as I do.
The tour was fun also outside the obviously hilariously, seemingly embarrassing bits you can see on the video. Great group of people packed in the two tour busses made the seven weeks on the road feel not at a day longer than five weeks, haha! Thank you DELAIN & XANDRIA. The »Pariah’s Child«-tour goes on, merging with »Ecliptica – Revisited«-tour that will go on until the autumn of 2015.
Thank you all for coming to see the shows and keeping live music alive! Keep it up! See you all somewhere. Much love!“
