as title.... EDGUY frontman Tobias Sammet has announced that Roy Khan (KAMELOT) and Oliver Hartmann have just been confirmed as guest vocalists for the forthcoming "The Scarecrow" album from his AVANTASIA project. On November 16, two AVANATASIA six-track albums "Lost In Space Part 1" and "Part 2" will be released. Apart from the identical title track both releases will feature completely different, exclusive songs plus videos, a poster, studio reports, a "making-of," a slideshow, and loads of enhanced bonus material, each for the price of a CD single. According to Tobias, the material on the two EPs is top notch and could have easily made it to the album as well. But because there is so much material they have decided to put out those two releases instead of a regular single or EP. AVANTASIA's full-story album, "The Scarecrow", will be released at end of January next year via Nuclear Blast Records. The CD is expected to feature guest appearances by the following artists: Alice Cooper (vocals) Amanda Somerville (vocals) Bob Catley (MAGNUM; vocals) Jorn Lande (ex-MASTERPLAN; vocals) Kai Hansen (GAMMA RAY; guitar) Michael Kiske (ex-HELLOWEEN; vocals) Oliver Hartmann Roy Khan (KAMELOT; vocals) Rudolf Schenker (SCORPIONS; guitar) "The Scarecrow" track listing: 01. Twisted Mind 02. The Scarecrow 03. Shelter From The Rain 04. Carry Me Over 05. What Kind Of Love 06. Another Angel Down 07. The Toy Master 08. Devil In The Belfry 09. Cry Just A Little 10. I Don't Believe In Your Love 11. Lost In Space AVANTASIA will perform at next year's Wacken Open Air festival, set to take place July 31 - August 2, 2008 in Wacken, Germany. Also scheduled to appear are IRON MAIDEN (headliners), CHILDREN OF BODOM and KREATOR. In a recent interview, Sammet described the music on the new AVANTASIA CD as "diversified, pomp metal with some classic rock elements, Classic orchestrated moments and Celtic stuff, a big timeless production and so on and so forth. It's going to consist of many different elements. Bombastic kick-ass music with a lot of heart and depth." The new AVANTASIA album will be a concept album featuring different singers singing different characters in a story. But the concept itself won't be a sequel to the first two AVANTASIA albums. AVANTASIA's last release was the two-part epic called "The Metal Opera" (issued in 2001 and 2002), which featured an impressive array of guest vocalists playing the various characters of the opera, including Michael Kiske (ex-HELLOWEEN), David DeFeis (VIRGIN STEELE), Sharon Den Adel (WITHIN TEMPTATION), Kai Hansen (GAMMA RAY), Andre Matos (ANGRA, SHAAMAN), Timo Tolkki (STRATOVARIUS), Rob Rock (WARRIOR), and others. 要先出EP，Lost In Space的Part I和Part II。新專輯The Scarecrow明年一月才會出。 The Scarecrow是完整的故事，找了不同的樂手，也有不同的元素。 11月先找EP來試試。:p -- I've got to keep breathing.
