Arjen Lucassen - Unveils New Project
Two weeks ago, the following news was posted on the Ayreon website:
"There's not been much news from us lately, but don't let that fool you. There has been a bustle of feverish activity going on behind the scenes here at the Electric Castle. With this update from ArjenLucassen.com we're excited to officially announce the details of Arjen's new project, Guilt Machine.
The Line-up will be:
Arjen Lucassen: instruments, backing vocals
Jasper Steverlinck (Arid): vocals
Chris Maitland (ex-Porcupine Tree): drums
Lori Linstruth (ex-Stream Of Passion): lead guitar
As Ayreon fans have come to expect from Arjen, the music of Guilt Machine ranges from dark and heavy to atmospheric and melancholic. But Guilt Machine introduces some new twists as well, particularly when it comes to the vocals. Rather than putting together an ensemble cast of vocalists from the prog, rock and metal scene, Arjen has enlisted the talents of a single alternative Belgian rock vocalist, Jasper Steverlinck.
For more details and comments, read here.

Amberian Dawn - Line-Up Change Announcement
As posted on the band's website last week, there will be a change in the Amberian Dawn line-up when the co-operation with Tom Sagar ends. Guitarist Tuomas, who earlier played the keyboards only in the studio, takes now a fulltime job as a keyboardist on stage also. Amberian Dawn wishes Tom Sagar all the best in his future activities.
The new recruitment as a second guitarist is Emil "Emppu" Pohjalainen, who is a talented 23-year old finnish guitarist. He also plays in the band called Thaurorod. Emppu and Kasperi form probably one of the most technically skilled player-duo in the genre together.
