Freak Neil Inc. is the new project from Sun Caged bassist Rob van der Loo. Characters is modern progressive metal with a highly original unique sound performed by a stunning assembly of many of the finest musicians on the modern progressive metal scene. The album (produced by Joost van den Broek) tells the story of several different characters who have to deal with their own frustrations in life. Since each character is unique the album contains several different musical styles to reflect their personalities. In a few words, the music can be described as dark, raw, loud, and most of all, weird! Characters is a project with the bass guitar as the main instrument, but with vocals, several guest musicians and extreme music - a new experimental metal project is born. Guest guitarists include Chris Godin (Gno), James Murphy (Death, Obituary, Testament) and Marcel Coenen (Sun Caged, Lemur Voice). Heavy Metal/Progressive, total running time, 56:23 - Freak Neil Inc. @ iTunes!
