TIMO TOLKKI’S AVALON Return To Eden – new album by acclaimed metal guitarist will be released on 14.06.19 (Frontiers records).

Five years in the making, ‘Return to Eden’ marks a new return for the legendary Finnish guitarist and composer Timo Tolkki (formerly of Stratovarius). Following a period out of the spotlight, Tolkki began writing the long-awaited third chapter of his metal opera (it follows ‘The Land Of New Hope’ [2013] and ‘Angels Of The Apocalypse’ [2014]) and completed this outstanding comeback album with help from Italian producer Aldo Lonobile (Secret Sphere). A convincing and inspired release, Tolkki’s hunger to create is more evident than ever.

As with the previous chapters in this opera series, a slew of heavyweight guest vocalists handle vocal duties, with ‘Return To Eden’ featuring appearances by renowned Dutch singer Anneke Van Giersbergen (ex-The Gathering), Zak Stevens (ex-Savatage), Todd Michael Hall (Riot V), Mariangela Demurtas (Tristania, Ardours) and Eduard Hovinga (ex-Elegy).

“I would like to say… Tolkki is back!”

exclaims the man himself.

“I feel that this is one of my best works to date and I believe the whole cast of singers and musicians truly went above and beyond the call of duty.

We managed to create a really great record. I hope the fans will like it.”

Tolkki has traveled a long, hard road to get to where he is today, but is now back and more determined than ever to claim his rightful place in the metal scene. Listen and believe!
