The song ends with a very mysterious piano/keyboard… thing. Again, the vocals sound very good, quite delightful actually, because the vocals in Sonata Arctica have been a little irritating on their previous albums. A very nice keyboard solo appears midway in the tune. “Paid In Full” is a very melodic song, typical Sonata Arctica, but not bad at all. This is definitely the best song on this record and is a worthy opening indeed. It must be said that the vocals lift this song to the highest peak! This song features awesome guitar/ keyboard solos as well and some steady, intense work from the rhythm section. The first thing that really hits you is vocalist Tony’s energetic way to sing at times. Opening track, “In Black And White,” is quite outstanding. The band has not taken a step far from their previous records, but you can hear where they have improved themselves since the beginning of the band in 1996. The Finnish Power Metalers have just released a completely new record called Unia, and this is actually a very strong release. No.Sonata Arctica is not an unknown name in the music world these days.

The second track "Weballergy" is considered by Kakko to be a sequel to Ecliptica's "Blank File", as both of them cover the theme of Internet privacy. is a creating force because when you're on the road for half a year or something like that I can't make new music at all so I need something like a month or two to get my head working again.
The title of the album was at first supposed to be longer, but Kakko's then girlfriend suggested "silence" and he reflected on how important silence was for him: The album is one of those things that's a bit different, a more difficult album. Either way can be the good way, not the bad way necessarily. That thing is like representing a snippet of your life that really makes you go one way or the other. However, Tony explained that the cover was not supposed to feature too much symbolism, except for the footprints leading away from the campfire. The cover art, featuring a landscape divided into night, summer and winter, was meant to depict nature.
