AVANTASIA
The second full-length studio album by Tobias Sammet's (Edguy) Symphonic Power Metal project.
It is a concept album and a Rock opera. It is written in the format of a play, and the songs are the characters' dialogues and inner thoughts. The songs carry on the story begun in “The Metal Opera”, with the same characters. Much like other Power Metal albums, the compositions draw aesthetic and lyrical influences from early fantasy literature such as "The Lord of the Rings" and the "Red Sonja" series.
The albums feature many artists from various Power Metal bands, such as Helloween, Gamma Ray, Stratovarius, Rhapsody of Fire, and many more.
Line-up: Tobias Sammet (Edguy), Henjo Richter (Gamma Ray), Markus Grosskopf (Helloween), Alex Holzwarth (Rhapsody of Fire).
Guests: Jens Ludwig (Edguy), Timo Tolkki (Symfonia, ex-Stratovarius), Eric Singer (KISS, Black Sabbath, Alice Cooper), Michael Kiske (ex-Helloween), David DeFeis (Virgin Steele), Sharon den Adel (Within Temptation), Rob Rock (ex-Axel Rudi Pell, ex-Warrior), Andre Matos (ex-Symfonia, ex-Shaaman, ex-Angra, ex-Viper), Kai Hansen (Gamma Ray), Timo Tolkki (ex-Symfonia, ex-Stratovarius), Bob Catley (Magnum) and more.
The whole album is brilliant. All the tracks flow together and there is a freshness and energy throughout. Tobias Sammet was at his creative and artistic peak with this effort. Stands up to countless listening. Extremely well recorded, with well-balanced soloing, it's bombastic and fantastic! One of the greatest Power Metal recordings in history!!
Platinum Edition expanded re-release in Silver foil printed Digipak includes 24-page booklet, live bonus track and live video.
AFM Records GmbH, 2002/2018 (AFM 060-9). Made in Germany.
