Opening part of the concept story:
“Criminals & Kings” is the 1st of 5 concept albums based on Ian Parry’s fictional story of a turbulent world wherein society slowly changes as mass migration reaches epic proportions.
People turn a blind tolerating man’s extreme aggression fuelled by the lust for oil, money & power. Outspoken objective opinions are no longer tolerated. Fearing for their survival, women have no other choice but to split society into two separate species as the planet’s eco system is struggling to sustain life!
Proud to announce the release of Italian Guitarist Mike Bertoli’s Avatar album “The Giant Within” featuring 2 co-written songs I recorded for Mike’s incredible debut now available for streaming on Spotify, Apple, Amazon etc with a cd version on Andromeda Relix records Italy. Fans of Malmsteen/Headless can also enjoy a powerful performance from Göran Edman. So I wish Mike & Friends lots of success with this prog heavy masterpiece & check out the songs via Spotify and thanks as always for your support.
