Instrumental guest performances are done f.i. by the well known guitarist Victor Smolski (MIND ODYSSEY, RAGE). The Heavy Metal Opera is consisting of 12 acts and celebrates epic and melodic Heavy Metal with changing moods and powerful hymnic refrains. Through skilful varying from euphoric to dark moments a majestic and vivid atmosphere is build up, which don't stand one second behind of those from other bands like AYREON, SAVATAGE and GAMMA RAY.
