With a stunning vocal performance from AMARANTHE singer Elize Ryd, the song shows the more melodic side of Tolkki’s songwriting and sets the pace for the wide variety of musical styles that it is possible to find on the full album. “The Land of New Hope” is Tolkki’s glorious return to music in full force. He managed to gather an amazing cast of singers and performers including Michael Kiske (UNISONIC), Elize Ryd (AMARANTHE), Rob Rock (IMPELLITTERI), Russell Allen (SYMPHONY X), Sharon Den Adel (WITHIN TEMPTATION) and Tony Kakko (SONATA ARCTICA). Rounding up the stunning line-up of this album are: Alex Holzwarth (RHAPSODY of FIRE) on drums and Jens Johansson (STRATOVARIUS), Derek Sherinian (BLACK COUNTRY COMMUNION), Mikko Härkin (SONATA ARCTICA) on keyboards, with Tolkki taking care of all guitars and bass recordings and of course production duties.
