SERAPHIM
The band that brings
Taiwan heavy metal toward an international recognition. 2001 was the growing
year for Taiwanese heavy metal music. Beside having hosed several international
rock and heavy metal bands to perform in Taiwan; but more important is
the year when "Seraphim" debut album ``The Soul That Never Die__ entered
the international market..
The second album ``The Equal Spirit´´ is the best representation of Taiwan's
Heavy Metal scene. In addition to the "dialogue between angel and devil"
style, this album was enhanced with a few choir and philharmonic orchestra
arrangement. As usual, the player has satisfied the audience with numerous
solo performances, especially the high technique guitar solos by Keisser
and the angel voice by Pay (with operistic background). To achieve the
superior quality of the production, Seraphim arranged for the mixing at
the Swedish studio Studio Fredman (famous for producing In Flames and
Hammerfall). The post-production was taken place at Finland's Finnvox
Studios.
Now, Seraphim presents their 3rd album "AI" demonstrates their excellences
from the previous two highly criticized and worldwide released albums
"The Soul That Never Dies" and "The Equal Spirit". The pronunciation of
"AI" in Chinese means "love". "AI" gives prominence to its peculiar emotional
melody and texture (occasionally acoustic), even progressive element is
added. For fans appreciate both Pay's female operatic vocals and fantasic
musicianship should discover the world of "AI". "AI" was mixed by Mikko
Karmila and mastered by Mika Jussila at Finnvox studios (Oct 2003, Helsinki
Finland).
Artwork is designed by Mattias Norén (Arena, Evergrey).
