The new Avantasia single “Mystery Of A Blood Red Rose” is now available for download. Stream the song on the Tobias Sammet Rockshow on RadioBob here.

Sammet comments:

“At first listen it’s a straight forward epic rock track in the vain of Meat Loaf meets Avantasia, but there are so many details and even though it flows well, it’s the most sophisticated and detailed single I’ve ever released. Except from the chorus and one guitar line not one single part is repeated, even the verses are completely different. If Meat Loaf or Richard Wagner would do that kind of song, I am sure this would be a major hit. I just hope people take their headphones and listen to this in a darkened room and not over their mobile phone speakers, because that’s the only way this music unfolds its magic.”
