Le genre de reformation que j'aurais juré ne jamais voir arriver un jour, et pourtant si, l'ancien groupe de Warrel Dane se reforme! Ce qui ne change rien à l'implication de ce dernier dans Nevermore.
Son escapade solo (où il reprend du Sanctuary sur scène) lui a peut-être redonné l'envie, en tout cas j'attends ça avec impatience.
Pour l'instant Lenny Rutledge (guitare) est de la partie, mais s'ils reprennent le dernier line-up avant le split on risque de retrouver les 3/5 de Nevermore.
NEVERMORE frontman Warrel Dane has announced that his late '80s cult metal outfit SANCTUARY will reunite to record a new studio album. "[I've] been talking with Lenny [Rutledge, former SANCTUARY guitarist]," Dane explains. "We are really good friends again and it feels good." He adds, "I missed my relationship with him for many years.
Regarding how the SANCTUARY reunion will affect NEVERMORE, which has a new studio album ("The Obsidian Conspiracy") coming out next month, Dane says, "NEVEMORE is never going away, so don't start any more rumors!"

Gaëtan au KIT a écrit :Y'a des sites sur internet où tu marques ce que t'as picolé et ça te dit combien de temps il te faut pour dé-saouler. Et ben des fois c'est une semaine...
A part le Keep it true, e headbanger's ou Wacken, je vois pas ou ils pourraient jouer.
D'accord, sur ce forum, ça nous fait tous bien plaisir. Mais qui connaît Sanctuary (à part les fans de Nevermore un peu curieux)?
En tout cas, vivement ce nouvel album!
Metal Knight a écrit :YEES !!! Un rêve de voir le premier album de Sanctuary joué dans son intégralité ! Kit peut-être ?
Malheureusement je crois que ça n'arrivera pas car Warrel préfère très nettement le deuxième album (plus proche de Nevermore faut dire, plus sombre et plus mature), et il n'est sans doute plus capable de chanter autant dans les aigus de manière aussi extrême aujourd'hui.
Avec son groupe solo Dane n'a joué que des titres du deuxième album pour l'instant, donc à mon avis Sanctuary joueront surtout de cet album s'ils font des festivals. Perso ils peuvent jouer n'importe quoi ça me va.

D'ailleurs les fans des deux groupes ne sont pas forcément les mêmes, j'ai souvent vu des fans de Sanctuary qui n'aiment pas Nevermore car trop moderne pour eux, et inversement.

On dirait que Dane prend ça très au sérieux car il va prendre des cours de chant pour essayer de chanter à nouveau dans les aigus! Je ne sais pas si ça va suffire (rechanter "Battle Angels" me paraît impossible mais je ne demande qu'à avoir tort!), en tout cas ça ne peut pas faire de mal et j'applaudis son engagement.
Au moins il ne prend pas le truc à la légère (genre une reformation fric vite fait) et a envie d'assurer dignement les anciens titres sur scène.
Reunited '80s cult metal outfit SANCTUARY, which features in its ranks current NEVERMORE frontman Warrel Dane, has begun writing material for a new studio album. Dane tells MetalSucks, "Wait 'till you hear some of the new stuff! I've got a song that I've been working on the last few days. It's pretty frickin' cool. . . It sounds like 'Into The Mirror Black' stuff [SANCTUARY's second and most recent album, which came out in 1990], which obviously is the evolution of our sound."
Regarding SANCTUARY's decision to reunite after almost two decades of inactivity, Dane says, "I know I said years ago that I wouldn't do this. That was probably because most of [ the members of SANCTUARY] weren't really friends. We didn't talk to each other."
He adds, "The ending of that band was weird. It got kind of ugly at the end. Eventually, we grew up a little and started talking to each other again. Now, we're in a place where we're good friends again. Which is cool, 'cause we're all different people now.
"I had always thought that Len [Rutledge, SANCTUARY guitarist] … He tried a couple bands after SANCTUARY broke up, but then he kind of quit doing music. One day, it occurred to me that he's too talented to not be doing something. I thought, maybe we should work on something together and see what happens."
According to Dane, his signature high-pitched vocal delivery, which has been largely absent from some of NEVERMORE's most recent recordings, will make its return on the forthcoming SANCTUARY CD. Dane says, "I am going to go back and take more voice lessons before I even think about recording another SANCTUARY record. I have to! I haven't been using that aspect of my voice for years because in NEVERMORE, I don't think it's really appropriate. When you're singing that way, you have to be consistent. And since you're never too old to learn anything, why not go back and take lessons?"

Pendant ce temps, Jeff Loomis qui ne pouvait évidemment pas rester depuis son départ de Nevermore, a été remplacé par Brad Hull (FORCED ENTRY) qui a déjà joué avec eux il y a longtemps.
Reunited '80s cult metal outfit SANCTUARY, which features in its ranks current NEVERMORE frontman Warrel Dane and bassist Jim Sheppard, has tapped Brad Hull (FORCED ENTRY) to play second guitar for the band.
Hull and Shannon Sharp, one of the moderators at Metalguitarist.org, were the top picks for the position. Brad, having previously toured with SANCTUARY, was given the opportunity to play the upcoming dates in Atlanta (ProgPower USA XII festival) and Greece.

On apprend pas grand chose dans cette interview de Warrel Dane, si ce n'est que Sanctuary est actuellement sa priorité, devant son album solo et enfin Nevermore.
Rockpages.gr: When you guys did these records it seemed that it was a different world. Now, you are going to release a new album. How is this going to sound comparing to you two previous albums?
Warrel Dane: Well, what I can say is that the new material that we are working on sounds like a natural progression from “Into The Mirror Black”. In that way anyway, and I think that if we would have done a third record back then it would have sounded like this one. We are pretty happy about the direction that we are going. It’s like going through your closet at home and finding an old pair of shoes that were very comfortable, that you forgot, and they are still there, and you put them on and you are like “Ohh, it feels great, I am comfortable with that again”. So, we are getting used to that whole thing, and we are not going to put any limits on what we are going to do in the songwriting process. So, the songs are coming along so good, they really sound like Sanctuary 2011, and I didn’t really think that… that it would work so well, but now that we are getting into it it’s really coming along so good!
Rockpages.gr: Do you find it difficult to get back to you Sanctuary singing style?
Warrel Dane: Yes! Hahaha! Actually that wasn’t the easiest thing in the world! I had to take some more voice training to adapt to it. The kind of singing that I did on those Sanctuary records is very difficult, and you know Nevermore vocals are difficult in another way. To sing high pitch like that all the time you have to be consistent, you have to do it all the time, you have to retain the ability to do it, and I found out really quick! Hahaha! When I started singing the old songs I was like “hey, this is hard!”. But, after I took those lessons it got easier, it gets better all the time, the more that I deal with this stuff.

Je fais parti de ceux qui aiment "sanctuary" et pas de ceux qui aiment "Nevermore".
C'est une bonne nouvelle, n'empêche que je préfère "refuge denied". Je ne suis pas étonné qu'ils ont repris "Die for my sins", un morceau qui a tourné en boucle souvent avec moi
si je pige bien se que dit warrel l'album sonnera comme le 1er NEVERMORE,car cet album aurais du être le 3eme SANCTUARY et qu'ils ont changer de noms a l'epoque car c'est le guitariste qui avais les droits et refusa l'utilisation.
THEY TRIED TO MAKE GO TO HELLFEST BUT I SAID : NO,NO,NO !
