With a production time of more than 2 years, German singer and producer Hubi Meisel presents his new album “KAILASH”, the long-awaited follow-up to his previous concept disc 'EmOcean' (2004 Lion Music, Avalon/Marquee).   The album is presented in a stunning Special Edition Digipack with 2 Bonus Tracks and 16 page full colour booklet!

This time the concept story is all about the Himalayas, Tibet and ancient Buddhist/Hindu mythology, and it describes a man’s adventurous journey across the icy heights of the Himalayas up to the legendary holy Mt. Kailash, where an important secret is finally unveiled…

“KAILASH” is a multifaceted Progressive/ Melodic Metal album, enriched with symphonic & Far Eastern elements and loaded with excellent musicianship. This album presents a blend of many musical styles and has a completely unique approach, which makes it stand out from other releases of this genre.

'Kailash' is presented in a stunning Special Edition Digipack with 2 Bonus Tracks and 16 page full colour booklet!

Backing up Hubi Meisel's killer vocals on Kailash is a first class assembly of musicians:  Vivien Lalu (Lalu) on keyboards (who was also responsible for composing the instrumental music according to Meisel’s concept & directions), Marcel Coenen (Sun Caged) and Jorge Salán (Mago de Oz) on guitars powered along by the stunning rhythm section of Daniel Flores (Mind's Eye) on drums alongside Johan Niemann (Therion) on bass.  'Kailash' has the musical punch to match its bold story line.
