On April 3rd a new chapter in Avantasia's history will be written. And what a chapter: Tobias won't just release another chapter in the history of Avantasia, but he will release two new chapters of Avantasia at the same time. And to quote the international music press that have had the chance to listen to the albums in the studio Avantasia will return with two real masterpieces. The albums will be called "The Wicked Symphony" and "Angel Of Babylon", they will be available separately as well as a 2-CD-boxset in a limited special edition. The list of guest stars on the album reads like the who-is-who of the international Metal scene: Klaus Meine (Scorpions), Eric Singer (KISS), Bruce Kulick (ex-KISS), Michael Kiske (ex-Helloween), Jon Oliva (Savatage), Ripper Owens (ex-Judas Priest), Bob Catley (Magnum), Jorn Lande (Masterplan), Jens Johansson (Stratovarius, ex-Yngwie Malmsteen, ex-DIO) to name only a few.
Metal Hammer Germany has just been in the studio and this first comment gives us an idea of what to expect: "Tobias calls and Metal's big names appear. The double strike "The Wicked Symphony" and "Angel Of Babylon" make this Tobias' greatest piece of work so far. Epic, catchy and ambitious like never before!" - Marc Halupczuk
