Sounds interesting. A couple of songs are acoustic covers from Stratovarius and Sonata Arctica.

Timo Kotipelto joined forces with Jani Liimatainen (formerly of Sonata Arctica). The duo has been working together and playing acoustic shows for a while, the idea of recording an acoustic album together came from the fans, and so "Blackoustic" will see the light of day on October 19th, 2012

This sounds very intriguing. I'll be picking it up for sure.
Nice little interview too - "Who the fuck wants to do an acoustic album?"
"Of course, Finland is in Europe, but we say Europe 'cause it sounds so much bigger."
LOL, Timo.
