SYMPHORCE will perform in the U.S. on SEPTEMBER 17 at PROGPOWER USA at
EARTHLINK LIVE in ATLANTA, GA. This event has already SOLD OUT!
The fifth album from SYMPHORCE, the band featuring Andy B. Franck (singer of BRAINSTORM) and Cede Dupont (guitarist of
FREEDOM CALL) delivers another Power Metal offensive that metal fans have come to expect from these leaders of the new
generation! The vocals of Andy are just outstanding and the guitar lines clever and catchy. Responding to the current wave of
melodic minded metal fans in the U.S., SYMPHORCE’s follow up to 2004’s “Twice Second” sees the band getting heavier while
retaining their original brand of melodic power metal. With IRON MAIDEN’s inclusion on OZZFEST 2005 and JUDAS PRIEST’s
resurgence with the original lineup, SYMPHORCE’s brand of Heavy Metal works right into the growing U.S. scene that now
has a stranglehold on a much younger audience.
