AFTER FOREVER: Interview, GRASPOP METAL MEETING Performance To Air On Belgian Radio
June 27, 2006Belgian radio station Studio Brussel will broadcast an interview with AFTER FOREVER frontwoman Floor Jansen and audio clips of the band's live performance at this year's Graspop Metal Meeting, which took place this past weekend in Dessel, Belgium. The program will air tonight (Tuesday, June 27) between 9:00 p.m. and 1:00 a.m. CET and can be heard online at this location.
As previously reported, AFTER FOREVER's former record label, Transmission Records, recently announced plans to release a two-disc compilation album containing the best songs from the band's first ten years of existence, plus previously unreleased material, non-album tracks, alternate takes, rarities and previously unreleased remixed versions. Included you will find collaborations with such guest musicians as Sharon den Adel (WITHIN TEMPTATION),Arjen Lucassen and Damian Wilson (AYREON) and Marco Hietala (NIGHTWISH).
Entitled "Mea Culpa" (view artwork here),the double-album has been divided into two chapters. The first chapter covers the period with guitarist/composer/lyricist Mark Jansen (now in EPICA),while Chapter 2 contains songs which the group recorded after Jansen's departure; a period during which AFTER FOREVER masterfully spread their wings and proved themselves to be one of the most interesting and powerful female-fronted metal bands in the world.
AFTER FOREVER's fourth full-length album, "Remagine", was released last year on Transmission. The follow-up to 2004's "Invisible Circles" was recorded at Excess studio in Rotterdam, Holland and was mixed by Sascha Paeth and Philip Colodetti at the Gate studio in Wolfsburg, Germany.
