Sounds Like
FIFTH SEASON, - We always strived to be original but Similarities/influences to DREAM THEATER, FATES WARNING, QUEENSRYCHE, PSYCHOTIC WALTZ, RUSH,
and many more as not all influences are concious.
Heavy, melodic METAL with no boundries, no restrictions on song length or style- emotive and thought provoking.
Fifth Season formed from the ashes of popular technical thrash band INNER SANCTUM in the mid 1990's. Who had gained respect and popularity within their field and supported thrash legends EXODUS at the Marquee London amongst others such as Conception, Scat Opera, Atomseed & Skyclad to name but a few. Wanting to move into a more melodic and progressive genre the band started working on new songs- The result was the debut CD album "Journey Through an open mind" which gained great reviews around the world. CHECK OUT SOME REVIEWS IN OUR BLOG-
This recording gained the interest of none other than STEVE HARRIS (IRON MAIDEN) who really appreciated the FIFTH SEASON sound and invited them to play with IRON MAIDEN at the NOTTINGHAM CONCERT HALL.
After playing small tours of France, Germany- The band were in talks with STEVE HARRIS & ROD SMALLWOOD about signing to (now sadly defunct) BEAST RECORDS-& possible MARILLION tour support- This didn't work out and is another story. Interest from OUTSTANDING MUSIC RECORDS closely linked to DREAM THEATER also sadly fell through as did the European Tour with Dream Theater- but at least the band spent time at a couple of gigs backstage partying with MIKE- so no tears were shed!...WEL A FEW! ha ha!
Fifth Season had guest keyboards on this first album (on two songs) and soon realised the wider soundscape and melodic ideas available with an added member. STEVE BINGLEY- Subsequently auditioned and joined the band on keyboards. Fifth Season started work on the (never officially released) follow up album "VERTIGO".
The bands songwriting ability had vastly improved, and the new recordings gained even more rave reviews-
Sadly FIFTH SEASON are no more- but i felt that the unreleased songs- (well a couple here at least) should get a chance to be heard.
So after a line up change which did about five gigs and one recording - being joined by TONY TURRELL - KEYBOARDS ( currently with FISH) SIMON DAWSON- DRUMS (ex- DEARLY BEHEADED, OUTFIELD, ONE MINUTE SILENCE) & STEVE WOODCOCK- BASS (ex SIEGE SOCIETY & currently in FOE & LINEAR SPHERE)
The band split up to pursue other projects with varying success- highlighted by a performance at Download 2004 Castle Donnington.
THE END.......????.
