December 24, 2008, 15 years ago
SOLUTION .45 is the new band featuring ex-SCAR SYMMETRY vocalist Christian Älvestam and ex-SONATA ARCTICA keyboardist Mikko Härkin. Älvestam recently issued the following update:
"For all of you who like my multi-vocal stuff in Scar Symmetry, I'd like to introduce a somewhat new band I've got going since the late fall of 2007 called Soplution.45. Since I'm responsible for introducing the multi-vocal style in Scar Symmetry, as well as writing like 75% of all the vocal-melodies and 90% of all the growled parts, you will most likely recognize the style and hooks in SOLUTION.45. I've been writing and doing these multi-vocals since the early '90s in several bands (such as UNMOORED, SOLAR DAWN and Scar Symmetry, to name a few) and since this style very much reflects who I am, musically, I have no plans abandoning it any time soon! All the aforementioned bands have vocally been a lengthening of my urge to write and experiment with these different vocal-styles and hooks and Solution.45 feels very much like the next natural step, in this 15-year long journey, starting back in 1993 with the birth of Unmoored! It's been a while since it felt this inspiring and rewarding though!"Go to this location to check out the 16-minute song 'Clandestinity Now'.
Details with regards to an official debut album will be announced soon.
