Former STRATOVARIUS, REVOLUTION RENAISSANCE and SYMFONIA mainman Timo Tolkki
has launched a PledgeMusic.com campaign to support the release of his fourth
solo album, "Classical Variations 2: Credo". Tentatively due on October 29,
2012, the double album will include over two hours of music and will feature
guest appearances by Tuomo Lassila (the founder of STRATOVARIUS) on drums,
Michael Vescera (OBSESSSION, LOUDNESS, YNGWIE MALMSTEEN) on vocals and
Michele Luppi (THAUROROD, ex-VISION DIVINE) on vocals.
PledgeMusic.com encourages fans to contribute funds to the recording of
albums and the artists themselves to donate to charity as a part of their
fundraising.
Tolkki recently made his "Loneliness Of A Thousand Years" book available for
free download at this location.
Tolkki is most well-known for his music and thought-provoking lyrics. In many
of his songs lies just a hint of the pain he has suffered that has shaped him
into the artist he has become.
In the spring of 2004, Timo was overtaken by a nervous breakdown that caused
him to be hospitalized. The next few years would completely engulf his life
and leave him on the brink of suicide. "Loneliness Of A Thousand Years"
candidly describes his heart-breaking journey through life and gives his fans
just a glimpse into the intricate psyche of Timo Tolkki.
With a touching honesty, he describes his tumultuous childhood, his battle
with a debilitating psychosis, and the philosophies that shape much of his
deep thinking and views on the world. His story reveals the other side of the
man that most people know only as the mastermind of STRATOVARIUS. It is an
intimate portrait of his agony, as well as a probing look at an illness that
affects millions, yet is widely misunderstood.
Written in a clear and compelling prose, "Loneliness Of A Thousand Years" is
a bold, honest and ultimately uplifting look at the life of a man and his
childhood, growing up as Timo Tolkki.
"Loneliness Of A Thousand Years" was originally published in October 2010 via
Goldenworks.
Tolkki drew up and signed an official waiver on May 20, 2008 giving up all
rights to the STRATOVARIUS name. The remaining STRATOVARIUS members — Timo
Kotipelto (vocals), Jens Johansson (keyboards) and Lauri Porra (bass) — have
since recorded and released two additional STRATOVARIUS albums with guitarist
Matias Kupiainen.
