A-Z | 'Window Panes' | Official Lyric Video

A-Z
Δεν είναι μυστικό πως οι κεραίες του Metal Daze είναι στραμμένες (και) πάνω στον Mark Zonder, στις μπάντες και στα projects που συμμετέχει. Στους A-Z (σημαίνει Alder thru Zonder) έχει μαζί του την φωνή των Fates Warning, Ray Alder, τον μπασίστα Philip Bynoe (βλ. Warlord, Steve Vai, Ring of Fire), τον κιθαρίστα Joop Wolters και τον πληκτρά Vivien Lalu.

Η μπάντα σχηματίσθηκε στα ξεκινήματα του 2020 και πέρυσι είδε το ντεμπούτο της σε κυκλοφορία, το οποίο φέρει ως τίτλο το όνομα της μπάντας. Παρακολουθούμε το μουσικό βίντεο του τραγουδιού "Window Panes"...

Δελτίο τύπου: «The band's name came courtesy of Alder - A-Z = Alder thru Zonder - and it fit straight away.

"What I liked is that it did not limit what someone would think of the band. If we named the band Scary Ser-pent it would give a certain direction and I did not want people to prejudge the band and record," Zonder says. Likewise, self-titling the record made sense.

"I did not want to give a direction idea to the audience. If we named the album Far Side of the Horizon, people would probably think 'prog band'. But if you named it The Machine Gunner, it would give a totally different direction for thought."

For artwork, wanting to again get the best possible contributor, they turned to the famed Hugh Syme (Rush, Fates Warning), who delivered the vivid image of a zebra eating an apple, encom-passing the band name in a sly way.

"Again, hire the best people you can find and just let them do what they do. The artwork is absolutely fantastic and really fits the whole concept. He is truly the best. Just a great guy to work with.
