  • Bio

    .. The latest on us: The Finnish prog group Khatsaturjan's latest album Disconcerto Grosso has been released by Musea Records in March 2010! It had been recorded and mixed over a long period of time between March 2007 and March 2009 in Vantaa, Finland. No line-up changes had taken place since the 2006 Simantipak album so the same old gang's behind this one too. This new album contains eight tracks and 63 minutes of our new original material... Disconcerto Grosso continues the "symphonic" approach of our previous products delivering the classic Khatsaturjan sound with big instrumentation and vocal harmonies while also bringing in new influences, new ways of musical expression and new surprises. Major works and shorter, lighter pieces go hand in hand on the album as do the various genres we flirt with. We believe it's definately something for everyone - yet a guaranteed entirety of course ;) .. Band history: .. We had known each other for long and had also played together in different combinations while we were in high school before Khatsaturjan was founded. In the year 2000 we formed a project band to do a couple of gigs playing classical works on a rock-combo. We performed arrangements of Dvorak's, Mussorgsky's and Prokofiev's compositions. After a short break we put together the same line-up again in 2001 and started composing and rehearsing new material. As a result we recorded a mini-album "Aramsome Sums" between July and November 2002. .. "Aramsome Sums" contained five original tracks by us and versions of Mussorgsky's "A Night On A Bare Mountain" and Berlioz's "A March To The Scaffold". The style of the album could be defined as symphonic progressive in vintage 70's vein. Hammond organ and fairly edged guitar sounds were characteristic on "Aramsome Sums". The album also gives a taste of the vocal harmonies which were later took to extremes on "Aramed Forces Of Simantipak". "Aramsome Sums" hasn't been released officially. .. We started recording our first full-length album "Aramed Forces Of Simantipak" in June 2004. It had been quite a while since the last project so we had nearly twice as much material ready (compared to what we had in "Sums"-sessions). Classical covers were abandoned this time so all the music was our original work. It took over a year to finish the album. As already on "Aramsome Sums", we did everything - including the production - completely ourselves so the album surely resulted as we planned. Choral parts, variety of synths, authentic strings, overdubbed guitars... In a word: "Aramed Forces Of Simantipak" is a BIG album. "Aramed Forces Of Simantipak" was released by Musea Records in June 2006.

    Reviews:

    "Excellent examples of ethereal and aggressive thrash metal, characterised by a hail of riffs and dynamic solos, sung by the fine voice of Rasmus Kiaer"
    metalbrigade .it, Italy
