"War"
is a
non-fictional, progressive metal rock opera featuring: Mark Boals (Ring
Of Fire), Vitalij Kuprij (Artension), Andre Vuurboom (ex-Sun Caged),
Irene Jansen, Lance King, Bjorn Jansson (Tears of Anger/Imaginery).
All the music was composed by Lars Eric Mattsson. Complex arrangements
and highly original compositions fill up Mattsson's (without a doubt)
heaviest release to date. The album was written and recorded between
2004-2005 and remixed in September 2020. This new version is 33 seconds
longer than the original release. Originally the album's intro and the
first song were merged to one piece and the 14+ minute "War Suite
Concerto" had it's 8 different pieces merged into one, thus this
new version contains 16 pieces (8 on the 2005 version).
War - a rock opera about the state of this planet we call the Earth influenced by what was happening in 2004.
