Initiated by pianist and composer Pierre Le Pape, from the city of Troyes, MELTED SPACE stands as the first metal opera created in France having the air of a huge choral fresco. It gathers together numerous musicians, as well as female and male singers from both the national and international metal scene. This powerful metal yet very refined approaching the essence of movie tracks and embracing various influences – from Within Temptation to Dimmu Borgir -, has seduced a pretty wide audience. MELTED SPACE’s music is inspired by traditional symphonic metal but is also rooted in the black and death metal scenes depending on the characters concerned or the action that is taking place. Metal here is serving the story that Pierre is telling us.
