Sylvan

POSTHUMOUS SILENCE will be available from
the 18th of april 2006!

Message from the band:

Finally it is done!!!
We have finished our 5th studio CD POSTHUMOUS SILENCE. With this a long time of creating, composing, discussing, arranging and producing will find an end. In order to 'give birth' to our first real concept album it took a lot of efforts and a much longer time than first expected. But now we would like to share the music which is by now an essential part of our lives for more than a year and we are looking forward to be able to announce an official release date:
SYLVAN’s POSTHUMOUS SILENCE will be available from the 18th of april 2006.
Also we will start our 'POSTHUMOUS SILENCE-Tour' at the end of april.

Sideways

Message from the band:

Sideways is a symphonic/progressive rockband. Sideways brings emotion, atmosphere and “bombast”. Sideways has an approved set-up with voice, guitar, keys, bass and drums. The spherical carpet is woven by Jurriaan. The pumping rythm is the work of Berry. The bass-groove is from Corné. Gerwin is pulling the, “pouring-your-heart-out”-strings and Alex is telling the melodramatic stories. The band writes its own complex song-structures in which the melody plays a major role.



Sideways came into being around the area of Rotterdam, The Netherlands. A few weeks ago the CD “….and there is light” was recorded in the studio Vrnee in Gouda (NL). It sounds fantastic! The songs have already received a lot of enthusiasm. On the site
www.sideways.info you can listen to mp3’s and have a look at the photographs. But actually, this music is at it’s best when heard live!!
