Big Bang (Waltari album)

Big Bang is the twelfth studio album by the Finnish crossover band Waltari. It was released in 2017 by Metalville Records.

The album continues Waltari's tradition of blending diverse musical styles, incorporating elements of metal, funk, progressive rock, electronica, and even opera. It features guest appearances from musicians across various genres, further contributing to the album's eclectic nature.

Lyrically, Big Bang explores themes of creation, destruction, and the cyclical nature of the universe, often reflecting on both personal and global perspectives. The album's artwork and overall aesthetic complement its thematic concerns, drawing inspiration from cosmic imagery and scientific concepts.

While Big Bang received generally positive reviews, some critics noted that its broad stylistic range could sometimes feel disjointed, even for a band known for its genre-bending approach. However, others praised the album for its ambition, creativity, and the band's continued willingness to experiment with its sound.
