Jeg var ikke ironisk her, til informasjon. Jeg har f.eks. samlet det beste fra led zeppelin III, IV og Houses of the Holy til en megafeit disk med godmusikk. Hver for seg er de i beste fall ujevne og med mest rÊl. Frank Zappa har ogsÄ en del utgivelser som deler denne skjebnen. Ah, the benefits of digital prowess!

Info om nyskiva. Er ikke helt frelst over coveret, men gleder meg uansett til den kommer.

http://www.symphonyx.com/site/news/the- ... t-in-july/


"New Jersey’s progressive metal masters SYMPHONY X are set to release their brand new, ninth studio album called Underworld on July 24th via Nuclear Blast Records.

SYMPHONY X have triumphed, creating a panoramic “album rock” experience in an era cursed with diminishing attention spans. “This new one is about the song, really crafting each one on its own, to be as strong as it could be” says Michael Romeo, chief writer in the band, and proprietor of The Dungeon, the tricked-out studio in which the album was crafted, newly equipped with the latest in technology required to execute the band’s famous symphonic and orchestrated touches.

“Musically, Underworld has things reminiscent of the bands previous albums but this one definitely has its own individuality,” stated Michael. “Every element added was in service of the song, so the album flows and becomes a total listening experience from start to finish. Every song is to-the-point and fine-tuned, with us paying a lot of attention to the hooks, voices, riffs, and keeping the interest and the energy high for the entire record. It is heavy and aggressive as f**k when it needs to be, yet soaring and emotional at other times. I think the balance is just right. It had to have all the elements of what we normally would do, just tweaked up a notch and really fine-tuned. You know, industry people have talked about how we’ll never see a complete album again, and that idea. I wanted to defend the reputation of the album, and really try to make Underworld worth listening to as a whole record. It’s what I love about great individual songs, but still an album experience. I don’t want to sound like I’m preaching, but it was a point we wanted to make. It was about the progression of the whole record. It speeds up here and then it dips down here. It all makes sense together, it all works together and it all flows together.”

Although Underworld is not a concept album, Michael stated “like the last couple of records, there’s a theme that carries through, without it being storytelling. We try to find something to key in on and get the juices flowing, and here the goal was to find something a little dark but with emotional content. I started looking at Dante, and Orpheus in the underworld, where he’s going to go to Hades or hell to save this girl. So there’s the theme of going to hell and back for something or someone you care about.” Heavily inspired by the Italian poet Dante Alighieri, Underworld draws on the themes from Divine Comedy most notably the part on Inferno. As homage to Dante’s use of the number 3 and its multiples, the band utilizes this motif in its music either in a lyrical or melodic context. The first song on the album is a three syllable, three note melodic phrase, and in the verses there are three references to three songs on the bands third album, The Divine Wings Of Tragedy. “There’s cool s**t like this all over the record,” Romeo reports.

For Underworld’s cover art, SYMPHONY X went with their established illustrator Warren Flanagan (Watchmen, The Incredible Hulk, 2012), who similarly tapped into the “secret knowledge” vibe Michael and band embedded in the record. “Warren went with the masks, similar to the first record,” explains Romeo. “But when I discussed with him Dante and the underworld, he did his own research and designed a little symbol for each of the nine circles of hell. So there are these little geometric symbols that mean something. That’s just what he does. He gets in there and finds these things that maybe no one really besides us knows what it means and yet it has meaning.”

Below is the track List for Underworld:

01. Overture
02. Nevermore
03. Underworld
04. Without You
05. Kiss Of Fire
06. Charon
07. Hell And Back
08. In My Darkest Hour
09. Run With The Devil
10. Swansong
11. Legend"

Herregud for noe vÄsete tÄkeprat. Jeg frykter enklere lÄtstruktur og mindre prog. 11 lÄter er for mye, med mindre noe er intro eller outro.
I never looked around, never second-guessed
Then I read some Howard Zinn now I'm always depressed
And now I can't sleep from years of apathy
All because I read a little Noam Chomsky

Dette kan bli bra! Liker at han bruker "heavy " og "aggressive as f**k" for Ă„ omtale musikken. Da blir det mandig nok for oss som liker SX barskt og brutalt.

DefinisjonsspÞrsmÄl. Intro, segue inn i Communion and The Oracle og segue inn i Rediscovery. SÄ fÄr en vurdere hva en kaller On The Breath of Poseidon, som strengt tatt er en segue, men en god del lenger enn de andre.

Det gjÞr jeg ikke, men det fins nesten ikke skiver med sÄ mange lÄter som ikke har litt fillermateriale.

Det er 11 spor, og jeg regner nesten med at det er en intro, sÄ forhÄpentligvis kan du puste lettet ut.

Bra lÄt. Romeo sin egomani er fortsatt gjeldende, men ellers var det lovende.

Syns dette lover meget bra. Symphony X leverer nok som vanlig.

Noen tÞffe riff og partier til tross, jeg kan ikke si meg helt overbevist av denne lÄta - men regner med at det finnes langt sterkere ting pÄ skiva. Iconoclast innfridde mine forventninger, mer sÄ enn hva Paradise Lost greide - sÄ troen om at de kommer opp med noe dugenes er uansett stor :)
