Asymmetric Universe kündigen Debütalbum & neue Single an
Das italienische Progressive-Metal-Duo Asymmetric Universe kündigt sein Debütalbum an und veröffentlicht eine neue Single mit Richard Henshall von Haken.
Das italienische Progressive-Metal-Duo Asymmetric Universe, bestehend aus den Multiinstrumentalisten Nicolò und Federico Vese, verbindet in seinem Sound die Energie des Metal mit den komplexen Harmonien und der Improvisationsfreiheit des Jazz-Fusion. Entstanden aus einer gemeinsamen Leidenschaft für Komposition und klanglichen Experimente während ihrer intensiven musikalischen Studienzeit vor fast 10 Jahren, veröffentlicht die Band nun ihr Debütalbum „A Memory And What Came After“ am 29. August 2025 über InsideOutMusic.
Um diese Ankündigung zu feiern, hat die Band einen brandneuen Track mit dem Titel „Coquelicot” veröffentlicht, auf dem Richard Henshall von Haken als Gastmusiker zu hören ist. Die Band kommentiert: “’Coquelicot’ is quite a simple and funky prog/fusion song, with quite a playful and happy feeling representing the peace of mind that we sometimes manage to achieve but that is disrupted by the things happening around and within us, represented by the heavy and complex breakdown and the dissonant solo of Richard Henshall.”

The band’s upcoming full-length album, which they started work on in late 2023, reflects a refined vision and deeper maturity. “We have grown a lot since then, both as artists and as human beings,” says Federico. “We always liked to blend genres… and we believe that now we have reached a clear vision of the balance of these genres.”
Earlier work often fused genres section-by-section, but now, with more confidence, the duo began each track with hybrid intentions, resulting in a more cohesive and expressive sound. “All the different arrangements and melodies are working together towards the same goal: convey the message and feeling that was at the base of each song,” Federico adds.
Their latest work features saxophone prominently, a decision inspired in part by a BILMURI live show. “We always loved adding trumpets and saxophones… In this album we changed again the balance with these instruments, focusing on saxophone as we felt it was fitting perfectly with the vibe of the album,” says Federico.
The album was mixed by Sebastian Sendon, with Adam “Nolly” Getgood also providing assistance with drum recording, which took place in the UK at Middle Farm Studios.
A Memory And What Came After will be available as a Ltd CD Digipak, Ltd. Blue-Black Marbled LP & as Digital Album. Pre-order now here: https://asymmetricuniverse.lnk.to/AMAWCA-Album
