The concept was to form a new female fronted act with smooth rock fills, but with hard, heavy metal riffs and gothic elements, accompanied by a symphonic orchestra. Eventually, the task of bringing the band to life began. A year of experimentation followed. The band explored how the songs should sound, how to make them unique, how to merge the styles and experience of its members, and how to fuse the different styles into the music that was about to be made.<br></p> </div><a href="https://flandersmusicmania.blogspot.com/2013/11/sorronia-debut-album.html#more">Read more &gt;&gt;&gt;</a><div class="blogger-post-footer">Welcome to Metal Invasion</div>https://flandersmusicmania.blogspot.com/2013/11/sorronia-debut-album.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (The Loner)0Boedapest, Hongarije47.497912 19.04023499999993947.154509499999996 18.394787999999938 47.8413145 19.68568199999994tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2406621298689595905.post-4459650263849997866Mon, 11 Nov 2013 18:02:00 +00002024-10-21T22:41:44.613+02:00AnalogybiographyEl Salvadorpower metalrelease<div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://i1249.photobucket.com/albums/hh513/FlandersMusicMania/Metal%20Invasion%20Blogpics/Analogy_logo_zps69924dfa.jpg" imageanchor="1" target="_blank"><img alt="photo Analogy_logo" src="https://images2.imgbox.com/ec/99/ABfOGdMv_o.jpg" title="Analogy" width="590"></a></div><div style="padding: 0 15px 15px;"><h1>Analogy</h1><h4>The Circle Of Life</h4>Analogy (El Salvador) was formed back in 2003 as a cover band playing songs from Iron Maiden to Metallica. It was formed by bass player Benjamin Lopez and guitar player Eduardo Franco. Back then it was only a garage band formed by school kids. A few years later the band was separated because the founders had to move to San Salvador; being a band resident from San Miguel, they had to leave town to pursue academic achievements. In 2005 Eduardo formed part of Everfar and Legacy later, being Legacy the opening band for international bands as <a href="https://flandersmusicmania.blogspot.be/search/label/Helloween#.UoEanNJWzAQ" target="_blank" title="Helloween">Helloween</a> and <a href="https://flandersmusicmania.blogspot.be/search/label/Stratovarius#.UoEbBNJWzAQ" target="_blank" title="Stratovarius">Stratovarius</a>. It was after the split up of Legacy that Benjamin and Eduardo began talking again about reforming the band but with a different approach; this time, they would have Analogy formed as a Power Metal Progressive/Speed Metal band with influences like Stratovarius, Angra, Dream Theater and more. In 2007 they debuted as a cover band; and after several months they released their first studio song called “<a href="https://www.last.fm/music/Analogy/_/Starlit+Sky" target="_blank" title="last.fm">Starlit Skies</a>” which had a very good acceptance by the audience in radial spaces like “Zona Metal” and “Subterránica” at Radio Femenina 102.5 FM. Being their members at the time vocalist Edgard Velasquez, Eduardo Franco on Guitars, Pablo Chavez on Guitars, Benjamin Lopez on Bass, and Ricardo Garcia on Drums.<br> </div><a href="https://flandersmusicmania.blogspot.com/2013/11/analogy-debut-album.html#more">Read more &gt;&gt;&gt;</a><div class="blogger-post-footer">Welcome to Metal Invasion</div>https://flandersmusicmania.blogspot.com/2013/11/analogy-debut-album.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (FMM)0El Salvador13.794185 -88.89652999999998411.820775000000001 -91.47831699999999 15.767595 -86.314742999999979tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2406621298689595905.post-9054031591480358626Sun, 23 Jun 2013 12:17:00 +00002024-11-08T08:02:30.427+01:00Fortress Under SiegeGreecejust check it outpower metalrelease<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhNyoBrk-iUOQo08a9csF3zjMFpfVneLgzr3dbWZ9xgM9tN4DoYXZLfNSo3Z4LTn54-3BDVhCypDiKmV-kafHowG7gi5LIdmJFPiG-QOFJJKoGaDvHf86HQqCUK5ZkXYgjRUjP4kbK_rc6hSHdwqdUnZXv9JAdEF_8SulUoimHr8ESt8jgk0miifn4auTJO/s960/Fortress_Under_Siege_bandlogo.png" style="display: block; padding: 0em 0px; text-align: center;" ><img alt="FUS_logo" border="0" data-original-height="447" data-original-width="960" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhNyoBrk-iUOQo08a9csF3zjMFpfVneLgzr3dbWZ9xgM9tN4DoYXZLfNSo3Z4LTn54-3BDVhCypDiKmV-kafHowG7gi5LIdmJFPiG-QOFJJKoGaDvHf86HQqCUK5ZkXYgjRUjP4kbK_rc6hSHdwqdUnZXv9JAdEF_8SulUoimHr8ESt8jgk0miifn4auTJO/s600/Fortress_Under_Siege_bandlogo.png" width="600"></a> <h1>Fortress Under Siege</h1> <h4>New Album On The Way</h4> <blockquote> Two years passed since the release of “<b>The Mortal Flesh Of Love</b>” and we are are ready to enter the studio.
