Arjen Lucassen - Reveals Name Of Project With Anneke Van Giersbergen


As you'll probably already know, the man behind Ayreon, Arjen Anthony Lucassen, is now busy with a new project involving singer Anneke Van Giersbergen, about which you can read more here. The most recent news about it is that the name for the band has now been revealed, and it is The Gentle Storm. Moreover, it seems like Anneke will play live with the band next year, while Arjen, judging by his replies to his fans' Facebook comments, won't, as he "stopped playing live a long time ago."

The new album will probably be released around early 2015. What are your wishes for it?

Wow, this is going to be even more boring than the last Ayreon album. Arjen is out of ideas for good songs (see Ayreon's last release), and now he is co-operating with a terrible singer. Yes, she is a terrible singer. Sue me.

Even though I don't like Anneke's vocals at all, she certainly is not a terrible singer. She is a great singer, to be honest. Just not the style I enjoy.

Am I the only one excited about this project? lol Possibly. But then again, I like Anneke's voice in general in all the different projects I've heard from her.

Someone please sue Daniell

IMO Anneke's voice has improved over the years. But I'm a big fan of The Gathering since the 90s so probably its a personal thing
