Actor Christopher Lee, who has appeared in movies such as "Lord Of The Rings," "The Wicker Man," and "Star Wars," has announced he will be releasing a symphonic metal album under the title "Charlemagne."
The album is focused on the story of King Charlemagne, the First Holy
Roman Emperor. Samples from the album, which will be released on March
15th, 2010, can be found at this location.
The band also issued the following statement about the new album:
"The
Carandinis, Lee's maternal ancestors, were given the right to bear the
coat of arms of the Holy Roman Empire by the Emperor Frederick
Barbarossa. Through his Carandini ancestors, Christopher Lee has a
direct link to Charlemagne, and has decided for the first time in his
life to pay homage to his distinguished ancestor, who is credited as
'The Father of Europe'.
"Charlemagne is a concept
album with original words and symphonic metal music. Composer Marco
Sabiu, best known for his collaborations with Kylie Minogue, Take That,
Pavarotti, Morricone, has created a truly epic canvas by introducing
modern metal symphonies, in a style which resembles a movie score.
"Marie-Claire
Calvet, a graduate from Bristol University, transports the listener
into 'The Dark Ages', with a very powerful storyline and mesmerising
lyrics. A full orchestra, heavy metal musicians, choir and special
guest vocalists bring the legend of Charlemagne to life."
