You guys are one of the best you really kick ass, luv all of your music wish you would come tour in the US would really like to see you live. Keep up the great work we all luv it. Good music never dies!
Fantastic release from one of the best prog-metal bands on the planet! Frankly, I didn’t think it would be possible for Vanden Plas to transcend their previous effort, The Seraphic Clockwork, but they have certainly done so with Chronicles of the Immortals: Netherworld (Path One). Exceptionally beautiful, flawless vocals from Andy, outstanding progressive instrumentation by Torsten, Andreas, and Gunter, and brilliantly heavy guitar work from Stephan. Another spectacular concept album, this time penned by Andy Kuntz and Germany’s biggest-selling author, Wolfgang Hohlbein. The story evolves around an immortal being who desires only to be human, but is incapable of sharing his life with mortals. While wandering through the centuries searching for peace, he is confronted by a dark shape-shifter with the temptation of giving up his humanity forever to become a god. With hauntingly gorgeous melodies and plenty of progressive inspiration, Netherworld is bound to win over plenty of new fans, while deeply satisfying long-time followers. I have lovingly enjoyed every release from Vanden Plas and remain astonished that each output somehow surpasses their last, while always remaining true to their unique sound. Very nicely done guys!
After repeated listening, I feel like I should tweak my review a bit… A fantastic release from one of the best prog-metal bands on the planet!
