The pirate armada of Visions Of Atlantis is ready to start a new battle on July 5, 2024 via Napalm Records. With their new opus, Pirates II - Armada, a new symphonic, cinematic, dramatic, and heavier-than-ever adventure is about to begin. Emotions, depth, richness of sound. Not only a record, but a true hurricane of feelings is what Visions Of Atlantis delivers with the second chapter of the Pirates-saga, finally proving that the band has matured and are ready to claim the crown of symphonic metal. The magnificent chants of pirate queen Clèmentine Delauney and brave captain Michele Guaitoli tell tales of strength, resistance, and resilience. Their previous album Pirates - the band’s all-time highest charting album in Germany, Austria, Switzerland, UK, USA, and Canada, and which yielded various other charting positions in Europe - set the bar as high as the waves cresting the Jolly Roger…

Works from three different musical eras seemingly unconnected – but in the mind of Pianist Stephen Beville very linked – hence the album title – as inspired by Visions and Ventures: Bach always a visionary musically and guided by his religious faith; Beethoven venturing into Romanticism with revolutionary ideas and optimism for a better world; Prokofiev caught up in the unrest in pre-revolutionary Russia, sketching pieces to escape the political turmoil – at least in his imagination. The Visions Fugitives come from a composer in his mid-twenties, just graduated and full of musical confidence, and are typically Prokofievian while some contain radical modernist elements. The Beethoven Sonata is likewise the work of a young 26-year old. It is full of playful invention and optimism and is perhaps one his most appealing works. Stephen Beville was acclaimed in 2010 as ‘one of the most talented young musicians to emerge from the UK’. (Frankfurter Neue Press).

Historically, there's a progression that bands usually follow before their sound goes full-on arena rock. Things will start small and gritty, and then as the fame and crowds build, the sound changes to match the massiveness of the venues. However, on their debut album, Imagine Dragons buck tradition and swing straight for the cheap seats, doing away with generations of sonic evolution in favor of the huge, arena-made sound of Night Visions. Dramatic and sweeping, the Las Vegas band works in the same vein as pop giants Coldplay, offering up track after track of hooky and emotional midtempo jams.
