THE AURORA PROJECT is an atmospheric progressive/symphonic metal band from The Netherlands.

In 1999, while playing the famous fantasy card game "Magic: The Gathering," the six future members of THE AURORA PROJECT became acquainted with each other. They found out that, not only do they all love "Magic",they also share a passion for mysterious, dark rock music. At this point, THE AURORA PROJECT is a work in the making. THE AURORA PROJECT's music delivers powerful atmospheric progressive rock, with a distinct metal edge where influences by bands such as 3RD AND THE MORTAL, PINK FLOYD, PORCUPINE TREE, TOOL and ANATHEMA can be found. The line-up of THE AURORA PROJECT has not changed.

THE AURORA PROJECT is Dennis Binnekade (vocals), Remco van den Berg (lead guitar), Joris Bol (drums), Marcel Guyt (keyboards), Marc Vooijs (guitar) and Rob Krijgsman (bass).

I actually purchased their second album first which came across to me as more of a heavy Neo-Prog style of music but i liked it enough to check out this their debut. I'm glad i did because this is a step up in my opinion. These guys are from The Netherlands and they contrast well those dark, atmospheric pieces with the heavy sections. Many bring up bands like ANATHEMA and PORCUPINE TREE as comparisons because of this. I thought this concept album was about the future as in a Science Fiction work but apparently it's about one's spiritual journey which still surprises me when i hear the samples and the narration that often pops up. There's not a lot of Metal in this recording but if your into a good concept album that will take you places in your mind then check it out.
