So where do we stand exactly? Maybe claiming originality in today’s musical world would sound a little too far-fetched and pretentious, but we certainly try to do our own thing and move away from the cliché. “Twenty-Six Other-Worlds” is essentially a Progressive Metal band composed of five members, each one attacking the style in different and marked ways, creating a rather interesting aural journey. This is a case of diversity unifying and strengthening the musical style rather than tearing it apart.

Influences and inspirations are drawn from several bands including Iron Maiden, Megadeth, Helloween, King Diamond, Dream Theater, Pagan’s Mind, Symphony X, Machine Head, Pantera and such projects as Black Light Syndrome and Liquid Tension Experiment.

We have come a long way since our initial steps as “Angel Dust” (a name which we had to discard upon discovery of another band by the same name).  As Angel Dust, we built a strong local fan base, which eventually gave us the opportunity to play as opening act for heavy metal legends Iron Maiden. Now, with a solid line-up and a consistent stream of new material, we are playing regular shows at top rock and metal venues on the island and cultivating a constantly growing fan base.

Making it big requires determination, hard work and a double helping of good luck… and then some. It is said that once, a fan of the great piano virtuoso Arthur Rubinstein told the great master, “Maestro, I would give up my life to play like you do!” To which the pianist replied, “I already have”. And if that’s what it takes to bring our musical career to the highest peak possible, then we’re in for it with all we’ve got and more. The stages of the world await us, as do the keen ears of great audiences all across the globe. And we’ll do our best to leave them entertained, fulfilled and best of all, wanting more.

As of right now, we are working extremely hard to promote our new album “Manipulated”, our very first recorded work. Created out of our best material, “Manipulated” is our first lunge into the international scene with the intention to showcase our material to record labels, management companies, international metal festivals and fans the world over.
