Half California, half the Netherlands-based instrumental progressive metal-fusion quartet, QUADVIUM, formed by American bass player Steve Di Giorgio (Testament, Death) and Dutch bass player Jeroen Paul Thesseling (Obscura, Pestilence), reveals details of its much anticipated debut studio album, "Tetradōm", set for release on May 30th via Agonia Records. The band is currently filming a music video for the album's first single, which will be released later this month.
Steve Di Giorgio and Jeroen Paul Thesseling are both innovators in bringing a different style of fretless bass playing to metal. Launching a band with two predominantly multi-string fretless bass players is no common occurrence, and the bass-duo felt they needed to take very special and deliberate time to get the right alignment with who is participating and what will be the end result - meaning the right sound and composition to represent this rare vision. Over time, together with Dutch master drummer Yuma van Eekelen (Our Oceans, Pestilence) and American guitar virtuoso/composer Eve (Myth Of I, Kaathe) - whose contribution and expertise play a huge part of QUADVIUM - the music began to take shape. The line-up is just the right blend to mix the delicate balance of such a heavy aural offering and a full vocabulary of high level constructed pieces.
"Tetradōm" was recorded and produced by Eve and co-produced by Yuma van Eekelen. The album was mastered by Dereck Blackburn at Quiethouse Recording. Travis Smith (Amorphis, King Diamond, Cynic) created the album's artwork and layout.
