THE SEARCH IS OVER (09/01/2007)


The search is finally over.

First of all, I am amazed at how many people sent me their stuff and even more at how many went through the trouble of writing and recording vocals for the test song I supplied. I heard some awesome singers and altough some of them were phenomenal, they still didn't get chosen. They might ask themselves why. The only way I can say it is that I was looking for something different. I have worked with great metal vocalists some of the ones that applied are "on par" with LaBrie, Bach and Roos, but since I have already worked with that type of vocal performance, I would like to go in a slightly different direction.

So, let me thank everyone at this point and please don't be too disappointed because there will be other projects and I now have a great list of vocalists to chose from.

I would also like to thank Duncan Glenday from the prog site "sea of tranquility" who got me in touch with a lot of interesting candidates.

In the end I found what I was looking for. I actually found a bit too much. I ended up with two vocalists and I could not make up my mind. So, we are embarking on a project that has not been done before. I will not go into detail on HOW the two vocalists will share their duties, but I can say that it will be very interesting and powerful.

And here they are:

MAGALI LUYTEN from Belgium (Virus IV, Beautiful Sin, Ayreon)
and
DAN SWANO from Sweden (Nightingale, Edge of Sanity, Ayreon and many more)

So, that is it from here...I have much more music to write be fore I even get into spending some time with those killer singers !

One more thing: We have official permission from Richard Dawkins to use "THE GOD DELUSION" as the title for the album.

On devrait encore avoir un bon concept. Le premier avec LaBrie sur le darwinisme était terrible. Et le reste suit. Malgré un son rachitique la musique est bien bonne.

J'ai moins aimé le suivant avec Bach (la polémique qui a suivi était marrante).

On verra celui-là, mais les chanteurs me branchent moins comme ça. S'ils arrivent à faire marcher le duo ça peut être bon cela dit.

Sur le site de d'Henning Pauly, à ne pas rater, une séquence vidéo avec quelques extraits de l'album ! Ça a l'air d'être du costaud, je ne me souvenais plus de trucs aussi "Heavy" sur les autres albums... Good news !

effectivement il depote pas mal, j adore le contraste entre l intro et le riff qui deboule derriere. tout comme le dernier morceau et ses samples etranges.

meme si il ne peut nier l influence dream theaterienne, le mec a l air sympathique et ses intentions semblent louables (cf le texte pondu pour le recrutement de chanteur).

Il se peut que ce ne soit pas l'option choisie... Personne ne parle de duo.

En effet, mais ça m'étonnerait quand même qu'on ne retrouve pas un duo ici ou là.

EDIT : je viens de mater la vidéo et ouais c'est heavy. Plus que sur ses autres albums. Et pareil que Behe, j'ai bien aimé le premier extrait (bonjour le contraste) et le dernier franchement furieux.

Tu verras Ultima Ratio, tu verras...

Je sais que tu as tes sources bien placées alors je vais être tenté de te croire.
