Fountainhead + Marco Minnemann join forces in new instrumental album

[Fountainhead]

Hey guys,
there´s a new instrumental album coming out on march 11, which features:

Marco Minnemann (Steven Wilson, The Aristocrats, Joe Satriani) on drums,
Jimmy Pitts (The Fractured Dimension, Christian Münzner) on keys/piano,
Jerry Twyford (The Fractured Dimension, Super-string-theory) on bass,
and yours truly on fretted/fretless guitars.

It´s called "Pitts/Minnemann Project" and the album is called "The Psychic Planetarium" and I´m super proud of it!

Here´s 5 minutes of music from the album, full tunes, guitar playthroughs etc will follow:

and we just launched a crowdfunding-campaign, to get some much needed help to cover the production-cost:
https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/pitts-minnemann-project-the-psychic-planetarium/x/8435219#/

If anybody would like to pre-order the album, the indiegogo would be THE way to go. We also have some very cool perks, in case you wanna get something "extra"

I loved your solo stuff, loved what I've heard of the new Obscura record so far, and now this sounds great as well. You're on fire!

There's no way this combination can do wrong.

 

[Fountainhead]

Hey guys, we premiered a full song last night at heavyblogisheavy

There´s also a Playthrough video of me recording all the guitar parts.

More song premieres and possibly a full stream of the album to come between now and the release date, but we still need support through the indiegogo campaign, where you can pre-order the album!


Cheers, T.

Just finished listening to it...

That makes two consecutive albums for 2016 which you slayed!

I am hoping for Hannes's new album to come out this year with more fretless solos hehe

 

[Fountainhead]

Awesome, glad you dig it

Actually, yeah there´s more. New solo album called "Reverse Engineering" about to drop about 6-8 weeks after Pitts/Minnemann

Honestly did not think I would enjoy this very much, ended up liking it a lot

Amazing job

Amazing job

It's got a lot going on. Something for metalheads, something for shred fans, something for fusion purists and something there for prog purists.

I've had this on repeat for the last few days.
