The elite members continue to embody the grand concept story that Marco Garau, the musical leader of Dardian, wrote himself!\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe participating members are the same gorgeous members as in the previous album, and the singer is Anton D'Aluso from Costa Rican melodic power metal group WINGS OF DESTINY. On guitar are DERDIAN's Enrico Pistrese, who returned from playing bass in the previous album as a full-time guitarist, and Luca Cerritto, guitarist of Italian prog metal band STAMINA, who also appears on Ian Parry's latest album. On bass is Ollie Bernstein from the Japanese power metal band ILLUSION FORCE, which already enjoys a lot of support. Salvatore Giordano, who left DERDIAN like Marco, also plays drums! It has the appearance of a super band.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis album is also a concept album with songs created based on an original story by Marco, and a grand story unfolding with the theme of a cursed crown hidden in the fortress of Amtok! Marco says that the story is being conceived as a trilogy, and a third installment is currently in the works, following the second installment. The song is a symphonic speed metal style that will leave DERDIAN fans in tears, and it is a masterpiece that further advances the flow of the previous work, with Anton's emotional singing, technical, classical arrangement, and full of beautiful melodies! Roland Grapow was used for the mix and the sound is perfect!\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Japanese edition bonus track includes the power ballad “To Eternity And Back…” featuring a beautiful piano that Marco created especially for his Japanese fans! ”\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLiner: Interview with Marco Garau with lyrics and translation!\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e1.The Black Sorcery 6:27\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e2.The Cursed Crown 5:40\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e3.The Legend of the Demon’s Cry The Legend of the Demon’s Cry 6:22\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e4.Assault on the Castle Assault on the Castle 4:44\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e5.Ride into the Sun Ride into the Sun 6:17\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e6.White Dragon White Dragon 7:48\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e7.The Shadow Man 5:27\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e8.The Book of Evil 5:15\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e9.Under Siege 5:01\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e10.Battle of Ice Battle of Ice 11:05\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e11.To Eternity And Back… * To Eternity And Back… 4:40\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e*Bonus Track for Japan\u003cbr\u003eANTON DARUSSO(Wings Of Destiny) – Vocals\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMARCO GARAU(ex-Derdian) – Keyboards and Orchestrations\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eENRICO PISTOLESE(Derdian) – Rhythm Guitars \u0026amp; Backing Vocals\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLUCA SELLITTO (Stamina, Ian Parry)– Lead Guitars\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSALVATORE GIORDANO (ex-Derdian)– Drums\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOLLIE BERNSTEIN (Illusion Force)– Bass\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eProduced by Marco Garau\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAll songs written by Marco Garau\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMastered By – Marco Garau\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMixed By – Roland Grapow\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMagic Opera - Battle of Ice (Official Album Teaser)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMagic Opera - The Cursed Crown (Official Audio Track)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e【CD】【2023\/12\/20】\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"MochiobaseCD","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67831344759088,"sku":"RBNCD-1386","price":37.74,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0820\/6585\/0672\/files\/178473818.jpg?v=1790125319","url":"https:\/\/mochiobasecd.com\/products\/diskheaven-178473818","provider":"MochiobaseCD","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
