Therion - "Beloved Antichrist" (trailer)
Μία από τις καλύτερες μπάντες της τελευταίας εικοσαετίας, οι Therion, επιστρέφουν δισκογραφικά την επόμενη χρονιά. Ο διάδοχος του album διασκευών "Les Fleurs du Mal" (Σεπτέμβριος 2012) τιτλοφορείται "Beloved Antichrist" κι εκπληρώνει ένα από τα μεγαλύτερα όνειρα του Christofer Johnsson (monumental brainchild το αποκαλεί) καθώς πρόκειται για rock opera.
Τιτλοφορείται "Beloved Antichrist" κι είναι εμπνευσμένη από το έργο του Ρώσου φιλοσόφου και ποιητή του 19ου αιώνα Vladímir Soloviov, "A Short Tale Of The Antichrist". Πρόκειται για μουσικό έργο που υπερβαίνει τις τρεις ώρες σε διάρκεια (τριπλό cd) με 27 χαρακτήρες - ρόλους...
Δελτίου τύπου: «On February 9th, symphonic metal pioneers Therion will finally release Christofer Johnsson's monumental brainchild, Beloved Antichrist, a sweeping rock opera loosely inspired by Vladímir Soloviov’s "A Short Tale Of The Antichrist". The entire piece reaches an impressive length of 3 hours. The dramatic and epic opus comes to life through 27 different character roles, performed by long-time band members like Thomas Vikström, Lori Lewis and Chiara Malvestiti, amongst many others.»
