SYMPHONITY – Marco Polo: The Metal Soundtrack
This output is a genuine discovery trip for lovers of Epic Melodic Symphonic Power Metal. SYMPHONITY are among those experts who have succeeded in creating an arc of tension from catchy melodies and awesome vocals to powerful guitar thunderstorms. „Marco Polo: The Metal Soundtrack“ is full of anthems and stands its ground on the level of acts like Stratovarius, Rhapsody, Nightwish, Helloween, Blind Guardian or Sonata Arctica. The songs, all true gems, are made for collectors of dignified concept albums.
With this album, SYMPHONITY have created a monument to the most famous traveller in medieval world history – and the stations of his life’s journey from Venice to Peking and back. But especially musically, the band’s brilliantly produced third longplayer will be very well received for sure.
The dynamic range of the album leaves nothing to be desired: up-tempo numbers like „The Plague“ and „I Found My Way Back Home“ are ideal flares to brighten even the dullest day, „Mongols“ is a wide-ranging ten-and-a-half-minute drama, „Dreaming Of Home“ and „Prisoner“ are piano-led ballads for emotional depth.
The album gains additional moments through the successful fusion of exotic harmonies and scales from countries on Marco’s travel route such as Persia, Armenia, Mongolia and China.
– Special edition jewelcase CD in slipcase with poster & artwork sticker
– Exclusive bonus tracks only available on CD
– Mixed by Mikko Karmila and mastered by Mika Jussila in Helsinki’s legendary Finnvox Studios (Crystal Viper, Marta Gabriel, Rocka Rollas, Blazon Stone)

SYMPHONITY – Part 9: Venezia Finale
SYMPHONITY – track by track introduction!
The whole story ends where it started – in Venice. Marco lived here for many more years enjoying the wealth he had brought home from his journey. This song is a sort of an spectacular outro which concludes the story of Marco Polo. Musically, it brings us back to the first chapter with the theme played by the whole orchestra and singed by great Czech Mezzosoprano Jana Hrochová, the solo opera voice of National Theatre in Brno.
You can pre-order the album here.
SYMPHONITY – Part 8: Prisoner
Track by track introduction!
The song „Prisoner“ is the albums second ballad with the domination of piano and bass guitar. After travelling around the whole world, Marco was arrested in Genova and had to explain his adventures for which his contemporaries were not yet ready at this time. The atmosphere of the song is dark as well as Marco’s thoughts during this imprisonment.
You can pre-order the album here.
SYMPHONITY – Part 7: I Found My Way Back Home
Track by track introduction!
This song tends to be one of classic Power Metal hymns. Its high tempo and guitar vs. keyboard solo battle will certainly please fans of Stratovarius-like musical style. And hopefully not only them.
As the name suggests, it tells the story about Marco’s journey back from Mongolian empire where he embarked on the ship to his hometown Venice.
You can pre-order the album here.
