Description
Avantasia are no strangers to the grandiose, as evidenced by their ambitious Metal Opera series and their affinity of and dexterity with eloquently placing guest musicians in their songs. 2010 shows Avantasia outdoing even themselves with two complete and separate studio albums debuting on the same streetdate.
This epic rock opera spans two full albums and brings the listener further into their fantastical otherworld they’ve come to be known for. Frontman/songwriter Tobias Sammet (also of Edguy) has invited a who’s who of rock and metal musicians to join him, including Klaus Meine (Scorpions), Tim “Ripper” Owens (Judas Priest, Yngwie Malmsteen, Iced Earth), Eric Singer (KISS, Alice Cooper), Michael Kiske (Helloween), Russell Allen (Symphony X), Bruce Kulick (KISS, Grand Funk Railroad) and Jon Oliva (Trans-Siberian Orchestra, Savatage) and more.
