Half instrumental and half with vocals, Rigoni’s new album is thematically centered around the Japanese folk legend of the three wise monkeys (together they embody the proverbial principle to “see no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil”) and further refines the stylistic contrasts and progressive spirit characterizing 2011’s “Rebirth” (Nightmare Records).
“Three Wise Monkeys” also boasts contributions from special guests such as keyboard player Kevin Moore (ex-Dream Theater, OSI, Chroma Key), singer Göran Edman (ex-Yngwie Malmsteen, John Norum, Brazen Abbot), drummer Mark Cross (Outloud, ex-Helloween, Firewind), Mistheria, Jonas Erixon, Simone Mularoni, Federico Solazzo, Tommy Ermolli and many others.
