Former Black Sabbath Vocalist Releasing New Project

12/06/2011
. (Gibson) Former Black Sabbath vocalist Tony Martin has teamed up with Italian guitarist and producer Dario Mollo for The Third Cage, an album of melodic metal to be released in January 2012.

The pair had previously worked together on the first The Cage album, for which Mollo (who bares an uncanny physical resemblance to Eric Clapton in about 1972) had already recorded the tracks. Martin came in and worked his lyrical and vocal magic on the completed songs. Another collaboration was released in 2002. The new album was recorded in Mollo's new studio, equipped with a green screen room for video shooting.

This writer has had a preview of The Third Cage and can report that it's melodic and heavy, and that the audio quality and guitar tones are outstanding. Martin and Mollo say the songwriting, the sound and the video production of this new project are all interwoven, and fans will be able to hear - and see - the results when the album is released in North America on January 20, and Europe on January 24 via Frontiers Records under the name Mollo/Martin. more on this story
