The album also climbed up to be the 20th best-selling album on the official Finnish album charts. In Soundi, one of the biggest music magazines in Finland, Standing Ovation managed to get up into four different categories in their annual readers’ poll.

Standing Ovation mixes genres skillfully, gluing everything together with a heavy, metallic touch and their own rugged style. The band’s strength is that they don’t really sound like any other band. Their music is a must-hear for fans of progressive music with metal elements.
As said before, Standing Ovation’s anticipated album “The Antikythera Mechanism” has now seen the daylight. The album partly deals with the ancient, highly sophisticated machine and the story is spiced with historical and science fiction elements. The album also has a wide range of surely surprising songs and themes.
Finnish progressive metallers STANDING OVATION have release the first single from the forthcoming album “The Antikythera Mechanism”. The album will be released at the beginning of November. Watch the video below.
