FLASH DECEMBER 6-2012
After
performing his last few memorable live shows this summer
with Greek metal band Crystal Tears to further promote the
Generation X c.d. Ian Parry has parted company with the
band and wishes them lots of success in the future.
Since the worldwide release by Lion Music of the 5th and
final Consortium Project V Species album in July 2011 and
due to the continued success of the first release from the
Consortium Quadrilogy remasters, Ian is now presently working
on songs for a Back to the Roots Classic rock album. The
album should be ready for release mid 2012.

Quote Ian: "I would like to take this opportunity to
thank everyone who has supported the Consortium Project
V and Quadrilogy albums and I wish you all a very merry
Christmas and the best of luck in 2012. All the best Ian
Parry"

Wishing

& produced the final chapter from his Consortium Project
concept entitled C-V "Species".
"Species"
is a culmination of brutal and melodic Symfo-gothic-power
metal at its best.
A
classic epic Sci-fi scenario combining a selection of the
best musicians in rock & metal and some who have performed
on the
4 previous consortium albums such as; Stephan Lill (Vanden
Plas) Casey Grillo (Kamelot) Kris Gildenlöw (ex-Pain
of Salvation) to newcomers from the gothic metal scene Lene
Petersen (Infinity Overture) & Jens Faber (from the
German power metal band
Dawn of Destiny).
The
worldwide release of C-V "Species" in 2011 will
be the 21st album release from Ian Parry celebrating a career
of over 25 years in the world of rock & metal.
Consortium
Project V "Species" is in essence a conceptual
masterpiece.
