AGENTS OF MERCY - The Fading Ghosts Of Twilight .
New album new band from The Flower Kings/Transatlantic/Kaipa mainman Roine Stolt and eccentric singer Nad Sylvan (Unifaun)
An album that took off in a vocally elaborated retro cinematic and orchestrated direction after initially being planned as an stripped acoustic album by Roine Stolt.
Yes - the music seems to find it's own ways - we can't wrestle that universe.
Not a concept album really - but it all start off in a land in between dusk, dream and the fragmented twilight zone - the dreamy trippy theme linger on - some clusters of nightmares of wayward souls while other tell sunny stories of hope,joy and compassion.
Drummer friends Pat Mastelotto (King Crimson,XTC,Stickmen etc ) Zoltan Csörsz (TFK,Karmakanic) and Jimmy Keegan (Santana,Spocks Beard Live ) provided the beats and the eccentric Biggo Zelfries (Walrus Farm) provided the romantic overblown piano,violin and analogue keyboards and TFK bassist Jonas Reingold add some fretless bass spice too.
First edition is a LTD digipac with a full 77 minutes of music and a 20 pages beautiful book.
Silas Toball (www.silastoball.com) of Goblindesign did the mysterious artwork for us and the album is mixed by Stolt at Cosmic Lodge as usual.
