The new album from Moldovan group Francis is entitled A Million Years Of Loneliness and highlights many urgent and serious problems of our time; personal, social, political and global, with acute social issues coming to the forefront. The themes of the eternal struggle for the right to “live in the sun”, for the right to be the first, for the right to reach the most difficult and daring dreams don’t leave the listener throughout the entire track list. On a musical side, the material is a mixture of extreme metal and a more melodic direction of modern metal music, as well as interspersed with symphonic and electronic arrangements. The melodic sound came from the influence of bands working in completely different genres: As I Lay Dying, Arch Enemy, Nightwish, etc. Aggressive couplets and breakdowns with melodic choruses are created in the style of Metalcore/Melodic Death and coexist with thrash, death and modern-metal elements. The vocal parts are represented by a combination of extreme vocals with a clean voice, which expanded the creative space for the music’s authors and gave the tracks a striking motif matched by a clear, bright voice. Thus, the recording involved two vocalists. The composition of the texts on A Million Years Of Loneliness involved the whole group agreeing on different opinions in a single concept for each individual song. The special uniqueness of the texts of the album consist of describing the atmosphere of the problems of each topic. Francis offer the listener not only a specific social, philosophical or personal problem, as food for thought, but also an interpretation of their own emotional feelings of a certain situation, thereby motivating the listener to intuitively comprehend the composition. Guitar parts were recorded in home studios. Mixing and mastering services, as well as aid in the arrangements, was provided by the studio MoonHome after a long search for the optimal sound of all instruments.

Joining the ranks at Sliptrick Records this week: Francis (MD) Metalcore | Melodic Death Metal Francis is Metalcore/MDM band that originates from Tiraspol, Moldova in 2010 and although they began writing material throughout 2011, the first full line-up was only complete in 2012 when serious rehearsals began. Originally the group was called Guitarra del Dyablo but the decision was made to rename the group into something more memorable and easily pronounced. After much searching, Francis was officially born. Why Francis? In honor of the hurricane in America that, in the bands opinion, figuratively corresponded to their music. In March 2015, the group released it’s first album Against A Current with older material written by the band and sung in the Russian language. Over the years, the band has been active on the live scene and on April 19th 2017, Francis played the festival “Rock over Dniester” in Tiraspol which was shown on national television as “Metal Displasement over Nistru” (first Moldovan metal festival). Francis plan to play more dates around Europe soon. Now Francis are ready to release their brand new album worldwide on March 27th 2018. It will be available in all the usual formats via Sliptrick Records.
