Odyssey album update

After taking permission from Hussam Raza on making this news public, here it is.

———————————-
Hussam Raza: “It’ll be around an hour’s worth of prog metal and prog rock with a lot of diversity in the feel of every song on the album. That’s mainly because we’ve used a lot of different keys in making the songs. There are songs in E, F sharp , G and B as well. We’re using the low B on our 7 stringers too on a couple of songs, so that should be fun, not to mention heavy :D

There are mellow, more atmospheric parts as well. There’s the prog ballad we’re working on right now, which is very atmospheric and has a very special vibe that we hope we can capture on the recording. It’s turning out extremely well so far. Then there’s this..evil psycho song we’re writing that’s inspired by King Crimson. It’s pretty experimental and sounds very unique to us. We also have an instrumental in the album that’s pretty crazy.

One of the epics in the album is done and clocks in at around 12 minutes. The other epic will probably be the last song recorded and also will probably be close to 10 minutes long. It sounds very Dream Theater-ish.”

According to lead vocalist Raja Nabeel Banwa, some of the working titles of the tracks include:
——————————————-
intro a.k.a (sperience)
last stand
falling into infinity
with him came destruction a.k.a shikanji
opeth
frozen in time a.k.a the ballad
instrumental/dhood malai
satan abbu a.k.a evil/psycho song a.k.a the song that scares the hell outta me :c
7 string madness
scarred eternal night
overture

———————————-
Personally, I’m really looking forward to this. With the likes of Communal Grave, Dusk, Odyssey and possibly Reckoning Storm releasing full length albums this year, this could be a landmark year in the history of Pakistani Metal.
