Description/Reviews:
"Faustus the Musical" is a metal opera based on the epic 16th century saga “Doctor Faustus” by Christopher Marlowe. Engaging compositions and a strong vocal delivery by the cast sends the listener on an exciting journey. From the symphonic to the brutal, the entirety of the album is impeccably mixed and mastered by the renowned Joost van den Broek.
Their sound could be easily described as engaging, unique, melodic, cinematic and strong at the same time. Je Schneider is the mastermind of this project but the line up is complete with musicians like Eric Gilette, Daniel de Jöngh, Diane Lee to name a few.
Since the beginning of their career / their first album the sound of the band has been developed a lot, it’s more mature now with much more emphasis on a more cohesive and better sound than the previous one. The sound of the band is influenced by bands like Textures, Persefone, Ayreon, Avantasia.
