VELVET VIPER Announce New Album And Tour Dates By Larry Petro, News Monkey Wednesday, February 21, 2018 @ 12:52 AM
Produced by Kai Hansen (ex-HELLOWEEN, GAMMA RAY), Respice Finem features an entirely new VELVET VIPER line up with Jutta Weinhold (vocals), Holger Marx (guitar), Ron Oberbandscheid (bass) and Micha Fromm (drums). The eleven tracks on the album were written by Jutta Weinhold and Holger Marx and are described on the band's WEBSITE as “classic heavy metal with unconventional additions and hard-and-slow grooves as well as rousing up-tempo parts which pay tribute to the NWOBHM.”
Creating the concept of “dramatic metal”, Jutta Weinhold founded the band ZED YAGO in 1985 to make a difference to the conventional heavy metal at that time. The music and lyrics of ZED YAGO were inspired by literature, poetry, mythology and fantasy, particularly by the works of German composer Richard Wagner. After two highly acclaimed studio albums, From Over Yonder (1988) and Pilgrimage (1989), the band split and Jutta Weinhold continued the artistic concept with VELVET VIPER, who released the albums Velvet Viper in 1990 and The 4th Quest For Fantasy in 1992.
