New Era is the debut album of Finnish power metal pioneer Timo Tolkki's band, Revolution Renaissance.[1] After Tolkki's split from Stratovarius in 2008, he used what fans knew the album to be titled R... R.... as the namesake for his new project. Using material he had written for Stratovarius's upcoming album, Tolkki's New Era features the talents of German power metal vocalist Tobias Sammet and German singer Michael Kiske, among others.
