UNWRITTEN PAGES originated from the Netherlands and is the brainchild of German/Dutch composer/vocalist Frederic EPE. He and his brother Michel EPE form the core of a musical collaboration that had its name chosen for the very purpose of the eclectic musical adventures that are neither restricted by style nor current trends.

To give further meaning to this statement, the band’s debut album “Noah” – a two-disc concept album – features a solid array of guest musicians/artists, such as Damian WILSON and Karl GROOOM of THRESHOLD, as well as sci-fi artists Mattias NOREN that helped lay the foundation for a heavy space opera that isn’t afraid to take the experimental route and challenge listeners with music that goes beyond the common verse-chorus scheme.

With their second release already in the works, Frederic and Michel take things to a completely different level: “Fringe Kitchen”, while having an encompassing and overarching theme of self-imprisonment, drops the classical concept album approach and sci-fi attitude. Instead, the album will rely on heavily textured and driven songs with a strong focus on songwriting, though never taking any compromises or shortcuts in the making.

“Macroscream is a symphonic rock new ensemble based on the writing of Alessandro Patierno (bass and piano), on the classic vintage keyboards as Hammond, Rhodes, Mellotron and Moog by Davide Cirone and on the violin of Gianpaolo Saracino. The CD is dominated by the eponymus long suite (25 minutes). The other four tracks, among 6 and 8 minutes, are well constructed as well and feature some interesting folk inserts.”
