Long-running metal web portal Brave Words & Bloody Knuckles today offers up STRATOVARIUS’ “Halcyon Days”for your streaming enjoyment. The tune comes off the melodic metal legends’ forthcoming offering, Nemesis. Produced and mixed by guitarist Matias Kupiainen and mastered by Mika Jussila (Finnvox Studios), the 11-track Nemesis will be released in North America via Armoury Records on February 26, 2013. Notes vocalist Timo Kotipelto ofNemesis: “It has a darker more modern sound. We, as a band, have gone through a lot and have matured as songwriters. We have worked our asses off to make this and we hope the fans will like it.”
