It's too bad Astrid van der Veen has left the music industry, I was still hoping for another Ambeon album despite the 10+ years that have passed since Fate of a Dreamer.
well i dont care what you all think or how old she is the music is tight and the voice is very very good so suk ass and make negative comment about it while u look in the mirror seeing the true reject have a nice day and enjoy the good music
@aistrupjames yes, she was 14 when she recorded this, and it is wonderful that she could have competed with all the great women singers when she was only a kid O.o
People who put down metal bands with female singers piss me off quite a lot. I think female fronted metal bands are the best metal bands there are. I don't like metal with male lead singers usually because they don't sing... they just do that nasty sounding scream/growl crap. By the way, this song is awesome.
@hyperfast87 I know this is 8 months old, but I just have to reply:
First of all, for you to say "I don't like metal with male lead singers usually because they don't sing... they just do that nasty sounding scream/growl crap" is proof that you know NOTHING about metal, nothing, zero, zilch, nada. You shouldn't speak about it every again.
Secondly, female fronted bands would get respected if they sounded like Doro for example, not this Enya bullshit that they're all aiming for.
@Suiton1 Enya is not bullshit. And there are female bands with vocalists who can sing in a agressive way like Lacuna Coil, Arch Enemy, Vanguard, After Forever, Elis (with Sandra Schrelet), Nightwish, just saying few examples.
@hyperfast87 People who put down metal bands with "nasty sounding scream/growl crap" usually know nothing about metal. Secondly, I wouldn't call this metal. I got nothing against female vocals, except the fact that some do it like generically barbie sounding shit..Like this....But a kid did it and it's still pretty good IMO. Still I like this, Ignorant closed-minded idiot.
@hyperfast87 I don't quite agree with this, but neither do I agree with putting down female vocals. Both can be good and bad. My own preference is male only because I also do like the growling in addition to singing. And for growling I do love Angela Gossow so I do not consider that I have any particular gender bias. If more women growled I would like more female volcals, of that I'm sure :)
But Ambeon doesn't require growling or male vocals to sound good. It's perfect this way.
Is this who makes metal more and more interesting the always appearing new genres, new sonorities, despite appearing here from a suggestion from hearing Amaseffer this is still, despite different,really enjoyable
@Dorianedrums this has nothing to do with within you ignorant lol. This is not even a real band, its a side project. And its fucking progresive metal and the girl singing was 14 years old when this was recorded.....
No, the Album came out, when she just became 14. She was 13 when this was recorded.
By the way: Arjen started recording an Album non-vocal and just Ambiant mixed with Ayreon. He named the Project Ambeon, but then he found a Demotape of Astrid in the Postbox and invited the girl for a recording.
The Lyrics were all written by Astrid herself and Arjen just picked them.
I just think that the melody she`s singing is`nt going with the music. The instruments are sounding random. Good genre try though, bold, but could be much better...and yea awesome voice for a 14 yr old.
She has a wonderfuu voice, 14 years old! its funny to think that another pop artist are famous by their ages, and they apear in Tv even have movies, but they are nothing compare whit Astrid Van Der Ven the most beautifull voice that I heard. and shes sooooo... beauty too!
Hmm, 14 when the album entered the stores 2001. I bought the CD when it hit the market, 9 years later I still wondering, where did this, now, 23 years old girl, go? Have not heard from her ever since, or have I? I dunno, great voice though.
there's things in this world i just don't understand, and one of them being, why there hasn't been a second cd from them, the first was quite simply [and should be] chart topping number 1.
I'd guess if memory serves, that it would be because ambeon is just a side projeck, theres more like this on Ayreon. Tho that project too is over i believe.
@TigerEyeJewel you are so right dude, but there's an answer for that, first, this band was just a proyect from ayreon, second, arjen has said he would like to make a second ambeon album, but astrid has some healt issues, so she can't sing right now, i would really love to hear a second abeon album, it would be a dream made true...
this girl is fun as hell to hang out with her normal voice is almost as good as her singing voice i met her when she was just starting out when our bands got together for a charity gig
i like this song its relax me im not ghotik but i like this song i hear it in the haus of a frind i say ohh its a realy good song hehe ok i like this song =)
Yeah they are severely underrated. Unfortunately. Arjen is a genius. Everything he's done so far is awesome, not just Ambeon, but Ayreon and Star One too.
This song is awesome, my favourite from the album, along with Sweet Little Brother. Astrid's vocals are amazing, for a fourteen year old. I love that little duel she has with the electric guitar in the middle of the song, after the guitar solo, it shows how much talent she has with her voice :)
ooh i see it now also that they gave me 1 thumb down. The other person ho asked to put sweet little brother up, also got a thumb down. Sweet little brother is on youtube now anyway:)
I recognise all the original tracks that these were taken from except this one --- Into the black hole from Into the Electric Castle, it's changed so much it almost sounds like an original song with the stunning guitar breaks. Ambeon is (with Astrid Vander Veen's vocals and melodies) an incredible album if a little short. Only Arjen Lucassen could do a Gothic/Ambient album and pull it off.
