Melted Space

Melted Space: The Great Lie (Sensory Records)

Melted Space is a metal opera, with traditional and extreme metal vocals. The music is, overall, more on the side of traditional prog and heavy metal, with some extreme metal influences. If in your music collection you already own metal operas and you treasure them, then Melted Space is for you. On the other hand, if you have not heard a metal opera and you are wondering what it is, Melted Space features a great amount of work for the self-respecting, open-minded all-metal public that appreciates music that is a bit more intellectual and elegant.

This album utilizes a wide variety of singing and vocal styles that deserves to be mentioned: David Vincent (Morbid Angel), Attila Csihar (Sunn O))), Mayhem), Mikael Stanne (Dark Tranquillity), Arjen Lucassen (Ayreon), Ailyn Gimenéz (Sirenia), Kobi Fahri (Orphaned Land), Mariangela Demurtas (Tristania), Guillaume Bideau (Mnemic), Niklas Kvarforth (Shining), Sylvain Coudret (Soilwork), Adrien Grousset (Hacride), Christine Rhoades (Jeff Loomis), Manuel Munoz (The Old Dead Tree), Arnaud Strobl (Carnival In Coal), Clémentine Delauney (Visions Of Atlantis), Virginie Goncalves (Kells), in addition to the work of The City of Prague Philarmonic Orchestra.

The album is the brainchild of mastermind Pierre le Pape, who does piano, keyboards and orchestration. He works with guitarist Adrien Grousset, bassist Brice Guillon and drummer Michael Saccoman.
