Moonglow is the upcoming eighth full-length album of Tobias Sammet Avantasia, a rock opera project. It will be released on February 15, 2019 via Nuclear Blast Records.
“I tried to calm down somehow for the last 18 months, but it seems that the best way to relax is creativity! In this state, I received a huge number of ideas that literally embodied in the epic stylistics of AVANTASIA. I was so impressed with these tracks that I quickly realized that if there was a new chapter in the history of AVANTASIA, then this material should enter it, spitting on all the trends and rules of the music industry, personal and self-created, with ten-minute epics and clinging rock hits! Everything is created only for the sake of one thing: writing excellent songs without the participation of all kinds of businessmen who customize everything to modern standards.
“Moonglow” will be the most luxurious disc in my career, the grandest and brightest, as well as the best and most recklessly luxurious disc I’ve ever recorded.
I look forward to January, when he will come out and start the tour in his support, in which you will witness the most grandiose show in the history of AVANTASIA! ”
