{"product_id":"meridian-breaking-the-surface-5700907263687","title":"Breaking the Surface","description":"The Danish melodic heavy metal band MERIDIAN are ready with their second, long awaited album \"Breaking The Silence.\" An album that shows a more varied expression from a matured band and an album that should appeal to fans of Pretty Maids, Evergrey and Mercenary. The debut album was created over a long period of time, and compared to that, Breaking The Surface was born a lot faster and in a much more smooth process. Most of the songs were written at dedicated writing sessions. One example is Bricks To The Wall . The band was jamming one Sunday morning and within 20 minutes the song was finished, while the amps were still warming up. - Another track Pure Celebration , is an old song that has long been a live classic for the band. The album finishes off with The Meaningless Wrong which is a power ballad where singer Lars Mrker is given the chance to really show his talent and special gift for creating strong melodies. The band had a line-up change last year, welcoming guitarist Marco Angioni (ex. Chaoswave), and appears in 2016 stronger than ever. Breaking The Silence is recorded at Hansen Studios and produced by Jacob Hansen (Volbeat). Hansen also did the mastering of the \"Metallurgy\" album. MERIDIAN has recently won the local Esbjerg Rock Festivals Musicprize, and with that the job as opening band on the biggest stage at the festival alongside names like Mike Tramp, Richard Marx \u0026amp; Dizzy Mizz Lizzy.","brand":"SPV Schallplatten, Produktion und Vertrieb GmbH i.I. \/ Hannover","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53909924315478,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/www.momoxbooks.com\/products\/meridian-breaking-the-surface-5700907263687","provider":"momoxbooks","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
