Concerts: Adagio To Tour With Kamelot In Europe This Spring

Posted on Monday, December 07 @ 00:39:49 UTC by nightowl

French neo-classical metallers Adagio will support Kamelot on the latter's European tour in March/April. Commented Kamelot guitarist Thomas Youngblood: "We are very pleased to have Adagio with us on this tour coming up in spring 2010. We did a few shows with them in the past and they are first-class musicians and very cool people. Their new CD is really smoking, too!"

Archangels In Black, the new album from Adagio, was released in February via Listenable Records. The cover artwork was created by Guilherme Sevens and the CD was mastered at the Cutting Room in Sweden with Bj?rn Engelmann (Rammstein, Meshuggah).



According to a press release, "without being a concept album, Archangels In Black evokes the band's convictions about a certain Nightside philosophy and a very personal approach of life and death." Guitarist St?phan Fort? says, "Darkness is a concept with many branches, often misunderstood from outside, but elemental for some kind."

Archangels In Black is the first CD to feature Adagio's latest addition, Finnish singer Christian Palin.

Palin is a member of the Swedish/Finnish combo Essence Of Sorrow and Random Eyes.

Here are the Kamelot/Adagio tour dates:
