"Finally. I'm basically ready with the new Ayreon album! Just in time for a release this year, I'm happy to say. So, expect the 'guess this musician on the new Ayreon' contest to start any time now..."In the meantime, Lucassen has revealed one singer via the Making Of clip below: NIGHTWISH bassist/vocalist Marco Hietala:
Lucassen also commented further on the new album: "It's going to be a double album, so there is a lot to write! It's extra challenging as well, because lyrically I've left the old Ayreon universe behind and have to create a new one from scratch. I'm really excited about the line-up and how everything is PROGressing so far. There is physics involved, but mainly it's about human relationships and the emotional costs that come with treading the fine line between genius and madness."
