After a plethora of postponements and a series of epic lenghty updates, Luca Turilli took a short bit of time to inform us the album is truly on it’s way!

The new Luca Turilli’s Rhapsody album, named ‘Prometheus, Symphonia Ignia Divinus‘, was supposed to see the light of day much earlier this year as announced in late 2013, however what we can only imagine as writing and studio delays has been delayed in sort of masked updates that gave us more information about the progression of the Rhapsody concept more than the album.

The new update from vocalist Alessandro Conti and Luca himself is short and too the point, indicating that the new album is actually almost done! Read below:

Conti comments:

“This album surely includes the most and greatest challenging parts I ever recorded until now. I am sure our fans will go crazy for this new Rhapsody release because of the many surprises and real hit songs included inside it. I also had the chance to sing together with one of my all-time favorite singers and this has been a further satisfaction.”

Luca comments:

“This is really a super production close to the one of a soundtrack for an Hollywood blockbuster. We recorded all kind of choirs for over 15 long and exhausting days, collaborating with amazing singers like Ralf Scheepers, Dan Lucas, Bridget Fogle, Previn Moore plus other special guests. I composed and arranged all the choral and orchestral parts in the same way I would do it while scoring for a movie or videogame trailer and I am sure our fans will go crazy for this new album as we do! I simply love it and I could surely define it as ‘the quintessence of Cinematic Metal’. Bombastic, epic and dramatic as never before!”

The album allegedly contains 11 tracks and is over 70 minutes long, and given the delays we can expect another cinematic metal masterpiece following the acclaim of the previous ‘Ascending to Infinity‘.
