Anette Olzon - "Fantastic Fanatic" (audio)
Η Anette Olzon Blyckert ουσιαστικά συστήθηκε στο heavy metal κοινό μέσω των Nightwish, στους οποίους διατέλεσε τραγουδίστρια. Η αντικαταστάτρια της Tarja Turunen έμεινε στην Φινλανδική μπάντα μία πενταετία (2007-2012) κι εν συνεχεία αντικαταστάθηκε από την Floor Jansen.
Έκτοτε συμμετέχει σε μπάντες / projects όπως οι The Dark Element, οι Allen / Olzon και οι Alyson Avenue (το συγκρότημα που είχε πριν τους Nightwish κι επανασυνδέθηκε το 2015). Παράλληλα "τρέχει" και την προσωπική της καριέρα. Το 2014 κυκλοφόρησε το πρώτο της solo album ("Shine"). Επτά χρόνια μετά, τον προσεχή Σεπτέμβριο, θα "βγει" ο διάδοχός του υπό τον τίτλο "Strong"...
Δελτίο τύπου: «Current The Dark Element (and ex-Nightwish) vocalist Anette Olzon is set to release her new solo album, "Strong" via Frontiers Music Srl on September 10, 2021.
“Sick Of You' is a song for the ones who has been used, abused, lied to, and mistreated over and over again and now enough is enough and you’re taking back control of your life,” says Anette Olzon of the albums' second single.
“Living in a world of a bit of chaos with a pandemic, crazy politics, violence, social media behavior and people venting their opinions upon others all the time is the foundation behind the idea of the lyrics for the album.
Musically, I wanted a much heavier album, yet with strong melodies and took my inspiration from bands I like such as Dimmu Borgir and In Flames,” she continues. This will be Anette's second solo album, following 2014's "Shine," and offers a harder, faster musical offering compared to the debut.
More importantly, "Strong" stakes a claim for Anette’s well-deserved standing as one of the world's top female metal vocalists. The music for "Strong" was written and composed together with acclaimed Swedish guitarist and producer Magnus Karlsson.
Together, Anette and Magnus managed to create an outstanding collection of songs which showcase Anette’s enormous vocal range alongside Karlsson’s incendiary riffs. The songs are heavy, but still quite melodic and contemporary in their approach to the genre style.
Additionally, "Strong" is mixed by Jacob Hansen (Pretty Maids, Volbeat, The Dark Element, etc.). All in all, “Strong” is an album that masters the borders between heaviness and hookiness, all while showing an artist who doesn't rest on her laurels, but heads boldly into the future.»
