Timo Tolkki once again connected with Aldo Lonobile (Secret Sphere, Archon Angel, Sweet Oblivion) to craft The Enigma Birth. As with previous Avalon albums it features an absolutely awesome cast of vocalists including James LaBrie (Dream Theater), Jake E. (Amaranthe, Cyrha), Marina La Torraca (Phantom Elite, Exit Eden), Brittney Hayes (Unleash The Archers), Raphael Mendes (Icon Of Sin), Fabio Lione (Rhapsody, Angra, Eternal Idol), Caterina Nix (Chaos Magic), and YouTube vocal star Pellek. With Lonobile overseeing the production, the main work on The Enigma Birth was completed in the winter of 2020. The resulting album is once again everything that you could expect from one of the true masters of the art. You have Tolkki's trademark fast songs with super catchy hooks, outstanding mid-tempo songs, and a couple of great power ballads thrown in the mix for a wonderfully balanced album. This is Timo Tolkki at his 100% best. He's back and ready to reclaim his seat on the power metal throne!
