EchoSoul - "Melody of Misery" (lyric video)

Οι EchoSoul μας έρχονται από την Ιντιάνα των ΗΠΑ. Μονομελές συγκρότημα (του κιθαρίστα Guy Hinton) που δημιουργήθηκε πέρυσι και τον περασμένο Απρίλιο κυκλοφόρησε το (αυτοχρηματοδοτούμενο) ντεμπούτο του υπό τον τίτλο "The End of Darkness".

Πέραν του Hinton συμμετέχει μία πλειάδα μουσικών (ως καλεσμένοι). Τα φωνητικά έχουν αναλάβει ο Tim "Ripper" Owens (σε δύο τραγούδια) και ο Rob Lundgren. Μέσα στο καλοκαίρι αναμένεται να κυκλοφορήσει και σε φυσική μορφή (CD, βινύλιο)...

Δελτίο τύπου: «This is probably one of the softest song off the Album, but it has a way of cutting through all the genres of Metal! This is the first cut off of the debut album for EchoSoul. This is a progressive metal collaboration, style is a blend between Dream theater, Iced earth, Fates Warning and a touch of Nevermore, add a touch of Djent and Chug and you got EchoSoul.»

Bio: «EchoSoul is a Progressive Metal Band from Indiana, formed in 2019, formerly Apparition, made of a collaboration of known and newer artists founded by guitarist and songwriter Guy Hinton. The music was inspired by countless bands like Nevermore, Dream Theater, Primal Fear, Iced earth, Queensryche, Judas Priest, Iron Maiden, Mors Principian Est, Opeth.

Guy draws inspiration from songwriters like Warrel Dane, Chuck Schuldiner, Steve Harrison, and countless others. The songs written are about life in deepest forms, from the clutches of depression and defeat, to the jaws of victory and war. Each song is drawn from something real and experienced.

The great part of this project was the wide range of musicians chosen to collaborate with to bring the fully rounded sound you’ll hear on the debut album. The first album consists of 7 songs and has some from 4 minutes all the way to an epic 11 minutes with longest called “The Hangman”. The great part of this album is the variety. Majority of vocals were performed by Rob Lundgren but Tim “Ripper”Owens sings two killer tracks in very Metal fashion.»
