Adagio - Guitarist Working On Instrumental Solo Album
Adagio guitarist Stéphan Forté submitted the following post on the band's MySpace blog:
"It's been a very long time since I wanted to do this. I've started to work on the first ideas a couple of years ago and am now spending 100% of my working time on it. So far, 7 songs are composed and today I am in the middle of the 8th one. It will be around 9 songs I guess. Musically, it's very shred, dark and neoclassical oriented.
The Metal influences goes from shredders such as Cacophony (Becker and Friedman) Haji's Kitchen, Derek Taylor, Scott Stine etc.. to bands like Meshuggah, Dream Theater... There's a lot of Middle Eastern, Indian and Japanese traditional music elements mixed with a classical influences, going from romantic (Chopin, Liszt, et..) to some more contemporary composers such as Bartok, Prokofiev, Messiaen, Penderecki etc... And of course it's massively Heavy
My Lâg is tuned down to A, and I might now use this for Adagio as well."

Seems like a cool idea cause Stephan is a great guitar player, but I just hope he hasn't run out of good ideas because the last Adagio album wasn't that original. Well, hoping for the best. At least this time there will be no lame vocalists to spoil the music.
