Bio:
SEBASTIEN is a melodic power metal band with symphonic and progressive influences. In 2010 the debut album "TEARS OF WHITE ROSES" (produced by Roland Grapow) is released via ESCAPE Music Ltd.CD also features seven special star-guests: Amanda Somerville, Apollo Papathanasio, Doogie White, Fabio Lione, Mike DiMeo, Roland Grapow and Tore Moren. The album is rewarded with enthusiastic reviews worldwide!SEBASTIEN is on the first real tour (in the Czech Republic and Slovakia) during the autumn 2011. The band also appears on another gigs with SERENITY (Austria), ELVENKING (It), VICIOUS RUMORS (USA) and FATES WARNING (USA). One of the biggest events in the history of SEBASTIEN so far is their appearance on the main "Ronnie James Dio Stage" of mighty MASTERS OF ROCK festival in July 2012 (with three guests there on stage: Roland Grapow, Apollo Papathanasio and Katie Joanne). Till the end of 2012 SEBASTIEN is also playing shows with AXXIS (Ger) and then with JORN LANDE (Nor). In August 2012 the band starts the first European tour with CIRCLE II CIRCLE (USA). It's called the „Tour Of Magellan 2012”. The first video of SEBASTIEN is released later in August 2012. It is made for a song "Dorian" and both album-guests of this song (Fabio Lione and Roland Grapow) appear there. Another step in SEBASTIEN’s career is a cooperation with German BALLROOM HAMBURG agency. In July 2013 the band wins a competition and appears as a support band of ALICE COOPER (USA) in Kajot Arena (Brno, CZ). In the Autumn of 2013 SEBASTIEN goes to the second European tour – the band becomes a part of MASTERPLAN‘s „Novum Initium Tour 2013“ (also with MYSTIC PROPHECY and SIREN’S CRY on board).In 2014 band plays the next big gig on MASTERS OF ROCK’s main stage – this time with Tony Martin (ex-BLACK SABBATH) as a special guest. On November 2014 SEBASTIEN goes to GRAPOW STUDIOS again to finish the mix of the second album, which is called "DARK CHAMBERS OF DÉJÀ VU".
Album:
Just one year ago the Melodic Metallers SEBASTIEN gave us their album "Art Of Creation". To bridge the gap until the next long groove and keep the fans happy, the Czechs are now pursuing a 4-track EP titled "Behind The World". If one could settle the still current longplayer still calm conscience in the metal range, then tend the new songs nevertheless rather in the direction (hard) rock.This is reflected above all in the sound of the quintet, because the two guitarists, who according to the lineup should be represented, are mostly discreet. In the eponymous opener, the six-string faction is actually only the solo, in the subsequent "Fight For Love" most likely in the instrumental parts between the verses to advantage, while in the final ballad "Mirror On The Wall" virtually no guitars are to be made out. Instead, the tracks held in the mid-tempo are predominantly dominated by keyboard sounds, only in "Sweet Desire" are friends of well-kept guitar music finally rudimentary at their expense.On the other hand, the guys from our eastern neighbor score with extremely catchy hooks and choruses, after which many a genre colleague would lick all fingers. Particularly noteworthy is the "Fight For Love" sung in duet with "Beast In Black" frontman Yannis Papadopoulos, with whom the band has made a real highlight. And the idea of incorporating a melody reminiscent of the James Bond theme in "Sweet Desire" here and there in the background may be a bit cheeky, but also a bit cool. "Mirror On The Wall" might have been a bit too kitschy for one or the other, but the number is not that bad.All in all, "Behind The World" definitely whets the appetite for the upcoming album. However, I would wish that the songs turn out a bit more guitar-heavy again, which ultimately prevented a higher score. But from the songwriting the guys are on a good way!
