Description
Originally released in 2001, ‘The Metal Opera’ marked the beginning of Tobias Sammets visionary project Avantasia and redefined the possibilities of symphonic and power metal. With an extraordinary lineup of guest musicians and vocalists, ‘The Metal Opera Part I’ quickly became a genre- defining release and laid the foundation for one of metals most ambitious ongoing sagas.
For this special anniversary edition, the album is presented in its definitive vinyl form for the very first time, featuring a dedicated vinyl master personally created by Mika Jussila, ensuring optimal sound quality tailored specifically for the analog format.
This release comes as a premium 2LP set on 180g heavyweight vinyl, housed in a beautifully designed gatefold sleeve, reflecting the epic scale and storytelling spirit of the original work. A landmark release and a long-awaited opportunity to experience the album in its most powerful and authentic vinyl presentation to date.
Limited edition 2LP blue black red swirl effect vinyl pressing.
