EPICA Singer To Perform With KAMELOT In Cologne
March 17, 2009EPICA singer Simone Simons will join KAMELOT on stage on March 21 at Essigfabrik in Cologne, Germany to perform the song "The Haunting". Simone — the longtime girlfriend of KAMELOT keyboardist Oliver Palotai — also appears on the studio version of "The Haunting", which was included on KAMELOT's 2005 album "The Black Halo".
KAMELOT members Thomas Youngblood (guitar) and Roy Khan (vocals) last month completed the first of four writing sessions for the band's next full-length album in Sørskogbygda, Norway.
EPICA will release a double live CD, titled "The Classical Conspiracy", on May 8 through Nuclear Blast Records. The album was recorded in Miskolc, Hungary, on June 14 2008 during the Miskolc International Opera Festival. The band performed a 45-minute set of metal adaptations of classical songs and movie soundtracks, accompanied by the orchestra and choir as well as symphonic versions of its own songs (including a few orchestral songs from singles and "The Score", which had never been played live before).
EPICA entered Gate Studio in Wolfsburg, Germany on March 2 with producer Sascha Paeth to begin recording the follow-up to 2007's "The Divine Conspiracy", tentatively due before the end of the year via Nuclear Blast Records.
