Kevin Codfert makes a guest appearance on
"The Chain Reaction".
A new
ANTHROPIA song,
"The Altar Of Trust", is currently being streamed on the band's
MySpace page.
ANTHROPIA recently parted ways with
Magna Carta Records, the label which released the band's 2006 effort,
"The Ereyn Chronicles: Part 1 - The Journey of Beginnings", and is currently seeking a new label home.
According to the band's official bio,
"The Ereyn Chronicles: Part 1 – The Journey of Beginnings" "buzzes with flashes of
IRON MAIDEN's gritty conceptual metal,
Dave Mustaine/
MEGADETH lightning-speed riffing,
DREAM THEATER's sweeping storytelling,
Yngwie Malmsteen's neo-classical minor-scale mining,
'The Lamb Lies Down On Broadway'-era
GENESIS atmospherics,
KANSAS' busy symphonic boogie-rock, classical guitar beauty and flair, and
RUSH's dark '70s sci-fi/fantasy explorations. Simply put,
ANTHROPIA's classical-metal-prog hybrid enraptures the listener in a world of sound, vision, and imagination."
