Hailing from Andorra, a small country located in the pyrenees mountains between France and Spain, we now bring you one of the most exciting new acts on the evergrowing metal scene; Persefone.
The band was formed in 2003 and, in just a year the first album was recorded, Truth Inside the Shades. Carlos Lozano (Guitar and voice for that cd), Miguel Espinosa (Keyboards and vocals)), Jordi Gorgues (guitar) and Toni Mestre (bass) parting from Death metal, through progressive passages and even acoustics, they demonstrated to have a great musicallity. Bands like Opeth, Symphony X or Cacophony are a reference for this album Truth Inside the Shades
Teaming up with Danish-based Intromental Management, the cd was released in 2004 by in Russia/Baltic States by Cd-Maximum, Japan by Soundholic and the rest of the world by Adipocere. The album was soon distributed and a great feedback was received from specialiazed press. Persefone created a new style original, complex, melodic and even agressive!
Later, after the releasing, the band began working in the second cd Core, with two new members in the band: Aleix Dorca as a drummer/producer and Marc Martins as a vocalist. Core is an intense crusade in which the band relates Persephones story, the greek goddess from the Underworld. A concept tribute divided on three epic passages where the band defies Truth Inside the Shades. The actual formation has got a new level of complexity, originality, virtuossisme, melody and agressivity. Mixed and produced by Aleix Dorca and mastered in Sweden by Peter in de Betou (ingeneer of top bands like Dimmu Borgir, Enslaved, Dark Tranquility and Katatonia), Core shows a new, huge and modern sound.
The fantastic cover art was conceived by Danish artist extraordinaire Annika von Holdt. She created a great ambience of beauty
Persefone, a band not easy to put a genre-description, now come back with Core, an album that goes further and beyond of what has been listened until now. With so many new and upcoming bands in the heavy metal world, Persefone has got a hard task in front of them, but the band have total confidence in themselves and their music, and were convinced that youll feel the exact same way, as soon as youve sat down and listened to the album. Core is something new and really exciting- do not cheat yourself for a one-in-a-lifetime experience!
Persefone is quite simply put innovative music for the open-minded listener.
