Sonata Arctica sa na podarenom albume "Clear Cold Beyond" čiastočne vrátila k pôvodnému štýlu, ktorý kombinuje s jemnosťou a melódiami posledných rokov. Album sa pohybuje prevažne v Melodickom Power/Heavy Metal -e, pričom občas využije až Speed -ové prvky. Viac sa mi páčia z albumu tvrdšie a rýchlejšie piesne (alebo časti piesní).

Personally, I have always liked Sonata Arctica, and the new album is one of the best that the band has released in the last 10 years.

Sonata Arctica model year 2024 has clearly found a spark in its expression that has been exhausted for too long. The apathy that plagued the previous records has been resolved. Clear Cold Beyond exceeds all expectations, being a potential candidate for the best metal album of the year. Sonata Arctica is back stronger than ever.

I'm slightly disappointed, although it's clear that this is the band's best album, since Reckoning Night. The song material is of high quality, but a bit emotionless and formulaic, detracting from the value of the album. On the other hand, any somehow decent album would be an improvement on Winter Night. A good album, as well as entertaining in its own way.

전 앨범에 비해서 녹음 퀄리티가 개선 됐네요, 아쉬운게 있지만 저는 만족하며 들었습니다. 개인적으로는 4번곡을 즐겁게 들었습니다.

솔직히 앨범 자체는 평작이라고 생각하지만 그동안 소악이 보여준 실망스러운 행보를 전환할 수 있는 한줄기 빛을 보았다는 거에 5점을 더 얹어봅니다. 나름 옛날 앨범들도 생각나게 하는 그런 신작이네요

이만큼 하는 밴드도 없고 전작의 폭망을 쇄신하며 초기작의 느낌이 나게된 점이 반가운 점이지만, 곡들은 전반적으로 단순한 작곡에 이들 다운 훅이 부족하고 뭔가 엉성하게 느껴진다. 결국 마냥 달리기만 한다고 좋은 느낌을 주지 않는다는 생각이며 여러번 청취하여도 기억에 남는 강력한곡이 없는점이 너무나 아쉽다 (그래도 다음 앨범을 기대하며 +5점 추가)

앨범의 분위기와 작곡, 구성만큼은 전성기 초기작을 거의 완벽히 재현해냈다. 다만 예전에 비해 키보드 활용이 많이 줄고 기타 위주의 편곡이 많아 그때랑 비교하면 조금 둔탁하고 답답한 느낌이다. 4번, 6번이나 7번 같은 곡을 보면 프록으로 다져진 지난 10년간의 내공도 절륜하게 발휘되고 있음이 보인다. 특히 7번의 아웃트로 피아노는 굉장히 인상적임.
