Today I wake up with Adagio's songs in my head
Adagio
started with a Neo-Classical metal band, with progressive metal
influences. Today they are really more into progressive metal, the
neo-classical is still there however. Adagio are a French band, with
some other vocalists, the best one till today was the British David
Readman. Strong rifs, great keyboard
I really enjoy their first two albums, Sanctus Ignis, Their debut album is an hymn to neo-classical style, announced amazing songs that would came.
I will share with you, The Stringless Violin, a true hymn to neo-classical
On Underworld, for me the biggest Adagio masterpiece the neoclassical and progressive are in a great symbiosis, creating unique masterpieces that sill are worth hearing, sadly this was the last album of David Readman on Adagio. In Underworld, Richard Andersson was replaced on keyboards by Kevin Codfert that still introduced the piano on Adagio work. About Underworld read this Review here is a part of that review:
1. "Next Profundis" (M: Stephan Forté / Kevin Codfert)
2. "Introïtus/Solvet Saeclum in Favilla"
3. "Chosen"
4. "From My Sleep... to Someone Else"
5. "Underworld"
6. "Promises"
7. "The Mirror Stage" (L: Audrey Bedos)
8. "Niflheim" (instrumental)
9. "Missa Aeterna" (Japanese bonus track)
On Underworld I could show you all the tracks cause all are worth it, but I will show you the most progressive one, Underworld song, 4 minutes opening creating the atmosphere to the whole song, a masterpiece of music, not only of metal, and also found a video which will show you also another brutal song, Promises:
Archangels in black, I don't know it so well, as David Readman left I lost interest on the band, however today I went listen and it's worth, totally worth, however Adagio in this album has more progressive influence, more heavy sound. The melody was lost a bit.
Stephan Forté - Guitars, Vocal
Franck Hermanny - Bass

From Archangels in Black I will show you Fear Circus the official video:
Stay tuned for another different band

"Even though Forte's guitar work and song-writing skills are fantastic, he is NOT the high point of this album. That belongs to the vocal brilliance of Mr. David Readman, who IS the greatest singer alive today, WITHOUT question. There is no way to describe his sound to someone who hasn't heard it previously, as there is nobody to compare him too. He is unique in the vocal world which is saying something. He sings with such passion and energy that it's almost infective. He turns what would have just above average neo-classical songs into masterpieces."The Track list was this one, I only put the track list on this album as it is my favourite of Adagio
1. "Next Profundis" (M: Stephan Forté / Kevin Codfert)
