相关简介：
Hard work, determination and a relentless passion for music is what defines ASPERA, a new und hungry melodic band with progressive influences, ready to shake up the scene and step up to worldwide recognition with their impressive debut release “Ripples” on InsideOutMusic.
The five aspiring musicians from Skien, Norway, are truly what can be described as ‘youngsters’ and ‘newcomers’, being just 20 years of age (all members were born the last quarter of the year 1989 and they were 18-19 years old when producing “Ripples”!). The group, however, originally formed in a slightly different line-up as friends in school and has been active since 2005 under the previous name ‘Illusion’, releasing a total of 3 self-recorded demo EP’s and having about 40+ live shows under their belt, before they switched their band name to the more original and better suitable ASPERA last summer. ASPERA is taken from Latin and meaning ‘thorns’ or ‘rugged ground’, which was chosen because it describes the band’s complex and colourful sound in an appropriate way.
In the turn of the last months, ASPERA has been expanding their following and introducing their music to a new and larger audience by sharing stages both within Norway with bands like Pagan’s Mind, Circus Maximus or Audrey Horne and most recently also debuting internationally when the band supported former Nightwish vocalist Tarja Turunen for two shows in Spain and one show in Switzerland.
Due to each member’s personal wide range in musical taste and interests, ASPERA’s music showcases a fresh and very individual blend of heavy and tight riffing, atmospheric soundscapes, an abundance of melody, skilled solos and yet an ever-present “in-your-face” rock’n'roll attitude with a strong focus on catchy melodies and focused songwriting. ASPERA quote acts like Pain Of Salvation, Pagan’s Mind, Symphony X, Dream Theater, Evergrey or Soilwork as common favourites and stylistic influences, which further stresses the point that a high level of musicianship and creativity are elementary components of ASPERA’s approach. Vocalist Atle Pettersen adds another extremely interesting layer to the band’s profound sound with his very expressive melodic range and a captivating sense for effective hooklines.
