Van Canto Metal Vocal Musical

2016, Van Canto has teamed up with German bestseller author Christoph Hardebusch (DIE TROLLE - Englisch: THE TROLLS) in developing the story on which both the album and book are based on. ,,Clashings On Armour Plates" marks a new chapter in Van Canto's musical story: Metal Vocal Musical. The first song of the album perfectly demonstrates that the six musicians of Van Canto are not only able to imitate instruments such as guitars, basses and keyboards but instead and first and foremost tell stories. ,,Clashings On Armour Plates" showcases the band's variety with impressive and sometimes surprising vocal performances, a catchy sound to stick in your head for days to come, heavy drumming and a bombastic choir soundscape created by the London Metro Voices (LORD OF THE RINGS). ,,The Bardcall", an infectious battle hymn, perfectly set the story of the fantasy novel FEUERSTIMMEN to life. A world filled with competing kingdoms, epic battles, dragons, and - of course - music in the form of bard songs.
