July 4, 2013, 11 years ago
Metal Shock Finland's Blackdiamond recently interviewed Tobias Sammet (EDGUY), the founder and leader of the great heavy metal opera AVANTASIA, prior to their next set of tour dates in South America.
Tobias talked of his reasons for having British fantasy artist Rodney Matthews design The Mystery Of Time album artwork: "It’s been a dream of mine to work with him, I’m a huge fan. I have books of him, I have pictures framed on the walls of our house that were painted by him. In fact, I’m so crazy about his art I just received a book that I ordered, it just came today and when I opened the package, I found I already had it. It’s called In Search Of Forever, I bought it twice now!
Discussing what’s happening with Edguy at the moment, Tobias states: "We won’t disband, we will go on. We are about to start working on a new album this fall. We will take all the time we need until we come up with something that makes sense. I don’t expect a new album to come out until spring or summer 2014."
