Synopsis

Album Description

Dutch hard rock innovator Arjen Lucassen has been renowned for thought provoking, groundbreaking and spiritually intriguing rock opera epics for nearly a decade through his immense undertakings with Ayreon. Into the Electric Castle is a re-release of Ayreon?s third album, and deals with eight stereotypical characters from different eras enduring experiments conducted by an alien race. The personalities are blown out of proportion and tongue-in-cheek, though the music itself is taken very seriously. This reissue is over a hundred minutes of eclectically cinematic soundscapes, punctuated by bouts of genius. Featuring Damian Wilson (ex-Threshold), Clive Nolan (Arena) and Fish (Marillion), it will appeal to both fans of Arjen?s projects, as well as the Prog Rock audience in general. A bonus multimedia track is included containing an interview with Lucassen.

CD Reviews

Very interesting

Guy Campeau | Stoneham, Québec Canada | 05/21/2007

(4 out of 5 stars)

"I don't know the project Ayreon very well, but what I can tell, as a prog music lover, this double cd is very well done and produced.

The composition are complex and the sound is very hot, the music is amazing, my only complaint is for the narrative sequences, these sequences should have been written on the cd booklet only, to let all the place for the music and vocals. Overall, an interesting double cd."
