Titolo: Comunicato che forse mi era sfuggito...

...mamma mia, per certa gente qui dentro ce n'e' abbastanza per non arrivare
a Natale, schiantando in una nuvoletta di fumo e odore di gomma
bruciata...LOL, quanti elementi di rosicamento massimo messi insieme....
Poi copertina stupenda e che richiama quella del debutto, classica ciliegina
sulla torta...sara' un successo sicuro (e non parlo solo dei loro fans
stretti ovviamente, ma in genere tra moltissimi che apprezzano un certo
campo)....quindi buona rosicata a tutti (o almeno a molti qui dentro,
ripeto) insomma:

Frontiers Records is excited to announce the signing for a multi album deal
of the mighty VISION DIVINE, Italy's Melodic Metal Finest. The new
cooperation will bring the first fruits with the release of the band's brand
new studio album
"9 Degrees West of the Moon" on
**January 23rd 2009**
Born as a side project of the esteemed guitarist and songwriter of
**Labyrinth**, **Olaf Thorsen**, to keep his working relationship with
**Fabio Lione** (former Labyrinth vocalist who had moved on to **Rhapsody**)
Vision Divine evolved during the years in a real band who released 5
acclaimed studio albums, one DVD and toured several times in Japan, South
and North America and played in several European countries.
The new album is particularly important in the history of the band as it
marks the return of **Fabio Lione** on lead vocals, after Thorsen's decision
to say goodbye to Michele Luppi in June 2008. "Fabio's return is like going
back to square one for us", comments the band's creative mastermind **Olaf**
"However Vision Divine is a band that did always move forward and I think
that with his voice and interpretation he has enriched the songs and gave
them a very peculiar and personal edge. I am truly enthusiast of his return
in the band and look forward to bring this record out there with his amazing
vocal abilities". Vision Divine line-up is completed by *Alessio Lucatti* on
keyboards, *Cristiano Bertocchi* (ex-Labyrinth) on bass, *Federico Puleri*
on guitar and *Alessandro Bissa* on drums.
Produced by none other than the former Stratovarius mainman **Timo Tolkki**,
Vision Divine created what is easily their most mature and intense record to
date. Entitled "*9 Degrees West of The Moon*", this is Vision Divine 's
heaviest, but yet most melodic and catchy album ever, showing why they are
now the number 1 band in the Italian Metal scene. "Melodies are the most
important element of our music. However our songwriting is very diverse"
explains Olaf, who adds "all the songs have very different atmospheres and
can go from melodic songs like Violet Loneliness to very aggressive and
heavy ones. I think there is something for everyone on this record".
Vision Divine are also working hard on putting up a new World Tour which
will bring the band to play again in Asia, South America and possibly Europe
outside their homeland Italy. "9 Degrees West Of The Moon" is a fantastic
journey that fans will consider as the true Vision Divine career defining
statement!
The album's final tracklisting includes:
1) Letter To My Child Never Born
2) Violet Loneliness
3) Fading Shadow
4) Angels In Disguise
5) The Killing Speed of Time
6) The Streets Of Laudomia
7) Fly
8) Out In Open Space
9) 9 Degrees West of The Moon
10) A Touch Of Evil
Fading Shadow (demo version - **Exclusive Bonus Track for Europe**)

"Dire ke Halford è il cantante metal per antonomasia, lo posso accettare
solo se si parla in termini "iconografici".
Acuti allucinanti, abiti in pelle, moto sul palco, tatuaggi. Ma tecnicamente
è molto inferiore a tanti suoi "figliocci" e purtroppo ha un registro
espressivo davvero limitato."
Un certo "Alberto", in un commento ad una recensione sul portale
"Verorock.it" (garanzia di qualita' e competenza, tra l'altro...).

 10) A Touch Of Evil
Dimenticavo: questa e' una cover dei Priest eh, non un pezzo loro omonimo.
