Darkness descends over the hall, the curtain rises… dear audience, welcome to the wondrous otherworld of AVANTASIA. With his ninth album, ”A Paranormal Evening with the Moonflower Society”, Tobias Sammet invites you to join him on an enchanted journey into his own version of reality, which is full of fantastic events and encounters.
It is a captivating, deeply magical universe that Tobias Sammet has built over the past two decades. Since his debut The Metal Opera (2001), the Peter Pan of international rock and metal has romped between metal, classical and hard rock, beguiling the biggest festivals around the world with his traveling circus and working with the greatest voices in the metal world including Alice Cooper and Scorpions’ Klaus Meine.
On this new album we find, among others, the likes of Jorn, Eric Martin (Mr. Big), Floor Jansen, Geoff Tate, Bob Catley, and more.
