The Unexpected is an album by the Norwegian/Belgian metal band Beautiful Sin.

Even though this album is meant to be a departure from the previous efforts of Uli Kusch, in many ways, it is just a more keyboard-driven version of his recent output with Masterplan. The music could be described as a melodic metal release with some serious hard rock leanings, plus modern production values. Most of the songs on the album are quite mid-tempo, picking up crunch and heavier parts only during the apex of the piece or the occasional choruses. There are also two instrumental tracks on the album.

Mixed by Tommy Hansen at Jailhouse Studios in Denmark. Artwork by Thomas Ewerhard

"Lost" is an original version of "The Departed (Sun is Going Down)" from Helloween's "The Dark Ride"" album and "The Beautiful Sin" is an instrumental arrangement of "Hopes and Dreams" - a bonus track off Masterplan's "Aeronautics"

In Europe, the bonus track is "Le rêve originel," a French version of "This is Not the Original Dream." In Japan the bonus track is "She is Made of Rain."
