Italian web site SpazioRock.it conducted an interview with keyboardist Henrik Klingenberg and guitarist Elias Viljanen of Finnish melodic metallers SONATA ARCTICA when the band played Italy at the end of November. The chat can now be viewed below.

SONATA ARCTICA was forced to cancel three shows in November (Graz, Vienna and Munich) due to singer Tony Kakko's infection of vocal cords.

SONATA ARCTICA will embark on a North American headlining tour in the spring. Support will come from MUTINY WITHIN and POWERGLOVE. Tickets are on sale through EnterTheVault.com and all normal ticketing systems.

The CD landed at position No. 19 on the Top New Artist Albums (Heatseekers) chart, which lists the best-selling albums by new and developing artists, defined as those who have never appeared in the Top 100 of The Billboard 200.

"The Days Of Grays" was released on September 22 in North America through Nuclear Blast Records.
