THE DEATH DEFYING UNICORN

[Erulv]

Why on earth is Through The Veil split in two on the vinyl? :S

[supernaut]

@Erulv

vinyl running time per side and song running order.

@Grimr

Oh thanks. I thought that sounded too silly to be true.

is why I started to buy (mostly) MP stuff on CD and vinyl. :MPD:

[Neil Tesor]

Bent has said that MP makes albums, with the idea of 2 or 4 times 20 (or so) minutes.

But this is more of a "piece".?

Have anyone recognized any of the two main riffs from the church concerts from these snippets?

SPOILERS AHEAD (read no further if you want to keep the excitement)

I've recognized one: The track that starts at approx 54 mins on the Trondheim bootleg. Snah's guitar riffs during the "and I miss it so" chorus was reprised by a sax on one of the snippets. And an even nicer surprise: Anyone remember that silent guitar theme that Snah plays right before Starhammer takes off on HMF? Well, that one is reprised in a far different context on the track Into The Gyre.

Well, as mentioned, i'm even more excited! Not that much new info, but you get a little better feel of how the songs are. I think it's gonna be EPIC!

Hey, you're right! And i think he even sings this one. Hard to tell, but i swear i could catch his smooth vocal style that last half a second before the clip ends

..then again…it could also be a trumpet

[GBD]

By the way: Into the mystic sounds like a killer tune!

German interview with Snah

If my German is correct, Snah calls The Death Defying Unicorn "the first kitsch-free rock-opera since Tommy" :lol:

[Tomcat]

Seems like a good interview – quote after crossreading:

"Wir werden definitiv das komplette Album präsentieren."

(We will definitely present the whole album)

So it's really going to be sth. different again this time!

[Ivan]

i´m a little bit afraid the album will sound like RW2.

[GBD]

@ Ivan: Don't be!

That silent guitar always reminds me of "Am Fenster" from City.

[TraktorBass]

Hm, "Mutiny!" sounds promising, as does "The Hollow Lands".

The rest, well, maybe it works in a bigger context.

edit: Mutiny sounds like 80s Yes played by an ensemble of Motorpsycho and King Crimson
