Appearing on marbled Vinyl in 'transparent orange green' and gatefold.

'The symphonic metal pirates VISIONS OF ATLANTIS are setting sail once again! After confidently presenting themselves on their last studio album Pirates, reaching the Top 20 of the German album charts, their magnificent third live album Pirates Over Wacken followed in the spring, along with extensive Tours through the USA and Europe. But now, the international quintet does not take a break, instead releasing an exclusive purely orchestral version of their successful album Pirates on December 1, 2023, under the title A Pirate's Symphony via Napalm Records.
The band invites listeners to embark on a journey through fascinating soundscapes, but this time without vocals, without drums, and even without guitars. The quintet allows the symphonic beauty of the music to speak for itself, once again presenting a different side of the band, strongly reminiscent of film music. The excellent orchestrations were carefully created by Lukas Knoebel and can now stand on their own. In doing so, the music reveals many details that were lost in the original mix, proving what a symphonic masterpiece it actually is. A Pirate's Symphony sets sail with the epic opener 'Pirates Will Return' and allows the listener to sink into the depths of the orchestration. VISIONS OF ATLANTIS create their very own musical universe full of symphonic brilliance, and on A Pirate's Symphony, this is experienced in its purest form. Well-known songs such as the mighty 'Melancholy Angel', the powerful 'Wild Elysium', and the captivating 'Master The Hurricane' shine in a different light and seamlessly flow into one another. This creates a majestic symphony that contains more emotional depth. At times, this can be more romantic and intimate, as on the poignant 'Clocks', which, at the same time, allows the raw power of dramatic choirs and heavy orchestrations to speak for themselves. A Pirate's Symphony reaches the harbor with the fascinating 'I Will Be Gone', which builds an impressive sound wall, emphasized by harmonizing flutes and bagpipes played by none other than the FEUERSCHWANZ virtuoso Ben Metzner, who also contributes to 'In My World', 'Master the Hurricane', and 'Heal The Scars'.
With these twelve purely orchestral songs, VISIONS OF ATLANTIS present themselves in their symphonic form, causing the hearts of both metal fans and film music enthusiasts to beat faster.'
