Folgen Sie dem weißen Kaninchen: ADAGIO APPRECIATION POST

Hey :)

How are you? Yesterday I spent the hole day cleaning the house up. And listening to music. I can't just clean things up without music. But no one cares, so...

Adagio is a French progressive metal band formed in 2001 by guitarist Stephan Forté. Adagio's music is known by its technical precision and dark orchestration. Since their third studio album Dominate, Adagio has evolved their sound, but still adhering to their trademark elements of virtuosity and massive orchestral influences. However with Dominate, they implemented a heavier sound with traditional death grunts. Archangels in Black was the band's fourth album. The band has stated that the "compositions are the ultimate between melodic and extreme metal, and can be considered as a more brutal version of their second album Underworld. With the help of Patrick Roy, French deputee working in the National Assembly of France, members of Adagio has collaborated with French music director Jean-Claude Casadesus from the Lille National Orchestra. The musical idea behind this collaboration between Adagio and the Lille National Orchestra is to record an album together, perform a live show, and record and release a subsequent live album. The project is planned for a 2013 release.
