Elements Pt. 1

Elements Pt. 1 is the ninth studio album by power metal band Stratovarius, released on 27 January 2003 through Nuclear Blast. The album reached No. 2 on the Finnish albums chart, as well as reaching the top 100 in four other countries. "Eagleheart" was released as a single, also reaching No. 2 on the Finnish singles chart.

This album was very successful in Europe despite having a new, more atmospheric sound, something that the Finnish had not accustomed their fans to. The album consists of 9 songs (10 in the Japanese edition and the French edition). The limited-edition version has a bonus disc that contains the demos of the album plus an additional bonus "Run Away". Only 2,000 copies were pressed for this edition.
