METRO SOCIETY's debut "A Journey In Paris" is a conceptual album based on the Paris Metro System that features the melodic vocals of
Corey Brown (Balance of Power, Magnitude 9, Section 16).
Metro Society is a melodic progressive rock/metal project group from the mind of guitarist/songwriter Chris Mangold. Mangold teamed up with bassist Ian Ringler (Magnitude 9, Section 16) to collaborate on writing the music for a new project.
During the writing sessions an idea surfaced to combine the songs with a conceptual storyline based on the Paris Metro system. The duo brought in poet Chris Cree to help with converting the words of the story into lyrics for the music.
After the recording of the guitars, bass, and keys, the group took on new life when other musicians were invited to record the remaining parts. Vocalist Corey Brown was asked to perform the vocals for the entire album and delivered a world class performance.
The project turned into a family effort as both Doug Brown, Corey's nephew, and Bill Mangold, Chris' father, stepped in to record the drums tracks.
Final recording, production, and mixing took place at Royal Recordings Studio with the assistance from the extremely talented Bill Douglass.

McGreetings from Scotland, Cheers for being our friend on myspace , Please Keep in touch as we value your friendship and support very much! All the very best to you, from McDave and the boys of Pegasus in Bonnie Scotland. ROCK ON! and have a great week ahead.
From the brooding and all embracing "King Of His Own World" that opens the album, through to the emotionally charged epic "Lost In Paris", Metro Society manage to captivate the listener with their distinct blend of cutting edge progressive metal. Each song is a journey, multi layered, and each listen reveals something new. 'A Journey In Paris' is a very tasteful, very mature work of progressive rock/metal art that must be experienced. - The Atomic Chaser, THE DRP/All Access Magazine
