Hello there!
In today’s post I would like to give attention to Avantasia my favorite
music band.
A few words about the band:
It is a symphonic power metal supergroup with opera influences, formed
in 2000 in Fulda (Germany), by vocalist and leader of the power metal band
Edguy, Tobias Sammet. The curious thing is its name Avantasia which is a
mixture of two words: Avalon and Fantasia. The name of this project “describes
a world beyond the human imagination”.
Tobias composes and writes all Avantasia's songs, the thing that seems be
a characteristic of his all albums is to invite many other singers from the
most famous power metal bands. Among the singers who Tobias cooperate with, I
can distinguish: Michael Kiske, Bob Catley, Alice Cooper and many many others.
In spite of it, Avantasia has its permanent members: as I have already mentioned
one of them, Tobias Sammet, others are Sasha Paeth, Felix Bohnke, Michael
Rodenberg.
The band has already released 5 albums which have achieved an enormous success
all over the world, including Poland. These albums are not just good and
powerful music but what is more, there are songs with meaningful lyrics which always
consist a wonderful story to tell.
1.
The Metal Opera part I&II
2. The
Scarecrow
3. The
Wicked Symphony y Angel of Babylon
4. The
Mystery of Time
5. Ghostlights
As I suggested in the title of the post, it is expected that by February
15, 2019, go on sale his next studio album which will bear the title of
Moonglow. So, I cannot wait to hear it!
To encourage you to listen to Moonglow, I add here an official album
trailer. Enjoy it!
