Evil Masquerade

Daniel Flores (dr), Apollo Papathanasio (voc), Henrik Flyman (gtr), Johan Niemann (bs) 瑞典著名吉他手Henrik Flyman一手創(chuàng)建的丹麥團(tuán)，這支充滿古典交響風(fēng)味的前衛(wèi)速度金屬樂團(tuán)–Evil Masquerade，2003年夏在哥本哈根正式成軍，2004-2006穩(wěn)定出產(chǎn)，每年推出一張專輯，距離上作2年，樂隊第4作來了，同時也是希臘主唱Apollo加盟後的第2作。隊員都是各路精英，這支多國部隊融合了古典金屬，前衛(wèi)金屬、有著旋律式和煽情的戲劇性，兼具著速度金屬的爆發(fā)力以及流行金屬的流暢旋律，Henrik Flyman的一手新古典速彈吉他功不可沒啊。

Biography
Evil Masquerade was founded in the summer of 2003 in Copenhagen by guitarist Henrik Flyman (Lacrimosa, ex Wuthering Heights, Moahni Moahna, ZooL). He hooked up with Dennis Buhl (ex Hatesphere) behind the drums, Kasper Gram on bass and Henrik Brockmann (ex-Royal Hunt) on vocals to record the band's debut album. It was released early 2004 under the name "Welcome to the Show". It almost immediately received worldwide recognition and made the charts in Japan at no 8. Only a year later it was followed up with their second album "Theatrical Madness". Soon after, a couple of line up changes took place and new singer Apollo Papathanasio and bass player Thor Jeppesen entered the studio with Flyman and Buhl to record the album "Third Act" which took the band to the next level when it was re-released 2007 (a year after the original release date in Europe and Asia) on a much positive US market. Flyman never left the studio and wrote their fourth studio album "Fade To Black" which was recorded by yet a new lineup, with only vocalist Apollo and Flyman himself as the remaining members. New drummer is Daniel Flores (Mind’s Eye, Tears of Anger, ZooL) and new bass player is Johan Niemann (Therion, Hubi Meisel, Demonoid, Mind’s Eye). Special guest on keyboard is Tony Carey (Rainbow).
