as title.... 4/30的消息了。 UNISONIC, the new band featuring former HELLOWEEN vocalist Michael Kiske alongside Dennis Ward (bass) and Kosta Zafiriou (drums) of Germany's PINK CREAM 69 and Swiss guitarist Mandy Meyer (who has previously played with ASIA, GOTTHARD and KROKUS), has finished composing nine songs for its forthcoming debut album. A demo recording is currently being put together and will be used to procure label interest. Italy's Frontiers Records, with whom Kiske and Ward have both worked in the past on various projects, is reportedly very interested in releasing the CD, but the group is said to be keeping its options open. UNISONIC recently took part in a photo session in an old warehouse with the German photographer Marc Stern. Some of the results can be viewed below. UNISONIC has scheduled the following dates: June 05 - Live Music Hall, Mörlenbach - Weier, Germany June 06 - Sonnenkeller - Balingen, Germany June 10 - Fabrik - Bruchsal, Germany June 11-12 - Sweden Rock Festival - Sölvesborg, Sweden UNISONIC marks the first time Kiske has been involved in a real band situation in almost 16 years. Having split with HELLOWEEN in late 1993, he participated in various projects and released several solo albums but had not been part of a real group effort until now. While collaborating with Ward and Zafiriou on the PLACE VENDOME project four years ago, Kiske found two musical soulmates. They ended up recording two PLACE VENDOME albums before deciding to join forces in a new brand new band. Ward, who had previously produced a record for KROKUS, suggested Meyer as the perfect addition to the group in the vacant guitarist slot. Kiske, one of the finest and most unique voices in contemporary rock music, explains his motivation of becoming a part of a band again: "Since the PLACE VENDOME productions I was impressed by Dennis Ward's skills as a songwriter and producer. We were occasionally fooling around since then via email that we should do more together in the future, so the idea came up to do a new band. I was generally getting a bit tired of doing everything on my own for so many years, so it just felt like the right thing to do now. We can all only benefit from working together. No matter how good you are solo, four people will always be better than one, I think, if they manage to function together. And a real band is also a very good reason to finally go on tour again. After 17 years, I can't wait to get back on stage and have some fun with the band and the fans!" UNISONIC is expected to perform a number of original songs as well as tracks from PLACE VENDOME and reworked versions of HELLOWEEN classics like "Kids Of The Century" and "A Little Time", both of which were included on Kiske's "Past In Different Ways" album. 網址： http://www.roadrunnerrecords.com/blabbermouth.net/news.aspx?mode=Article& newsitemID=139426 縮網： http://0rz.tw/Am6Fw Michael Kiske (Vocal/ex-Helloween)的新團。 Unisonic新專輯差不多完成了，他們錄製了九首歌，之後由Frontier Records發行。六月份有幾場現場演唱，這也是Michael Kiske十幾年來的第一次。團員大部分是Pink Cream 69現任團員，吉他手Mandy Meyer來頭也不小。 -- I've got to keep breathing.
