about

17th May will see the release of Lucassen & Soeterboek's Plan Nine album 'The Long-Lost Songs' via Music Theories Recordings / Mascot Label Group.

It was the early nineties, and musical polymath Arjen Lucassen had begun working on several projects: a solo album, a progressive-rock opera and a rock album. Around this time, he watched singer Robert Soeterboek perform live with Bodine, his former early-eighties heavy metal band. "His vocals truly impressed me, a rarity!" Lucassen recalls. "He had the charisma and power of singers like David Coverdale and Robert Plant. Discovering that we really got along personally, we decided to collaborate on some songs, just for fun."

"We started writing songs together and found a natural flow, leading to a wealth of ideas," remembers Soeterboek. "Our friendship grew as we spent more time together, and I remember that there were lots of shenanigans and laughter."

Fast forward to 2022, and they revisited those recordings. The album encapsulates a glorious treasure trove of 11 original songs with a loving 70s and 80s nod. It's a blistering romp through the good time rolling rocker of "Let It Ride", the Beatles-esque "Doctor Robert's Medicine Show," the bluesy groove of "Annie Moore," the chugging glam stomp of "High-Speed Chase" to the 80s metal of "Ice on Fire”, whilst "The Preacher" would fit on a number of Arjen's back catalogue records. The bonus disc features all the demos and some more newly recorded tracks.

The Long-Lost Songs are lost no more. Plan Nine is reborn, giving the long-lost songs a second life!

Please note that Bandcamp only allows 90 days of preorders. The release date below will be updated until it shows May 17, 2024.

Décédé brutalement, Daniel se retrouve dans une sorte de purgatoire : le Transitus. Voulant retrouver sa bien-aimée, il essaye de persuader l'Ange de la Mort. C'est alors... Transitus est un bien étrange album. Musicalement, Ayreon confirme qu'il reste un pilier du metal progressif mais conceptuellement, on se retrouve avec une histoire à la Roméo et Juliette clichée, des monologues et dialogues alors que les personnages sont nombreux et une hyper dramatisation qui entache parfois sa musique.
