Charly
Sahona is best known as the guitarist in the
modern French progressive metal band
Venturia. Late 2008 saw Charly begin work on
what has become his debut solo album entitled
“Naked Thoughts From A Silent Chaos” set for
release on February 19th 2010 on
Lion Music.
This 8 track release is built
around heavy riffs, catchy vocal lines and
crazy solos. Comparisons can be made if one
was to fuse Dream Theater with Muse and 30
Seconds To Mars. This album offers a fresh
sound, modern and direct, heavy and begs to
be heard.
“Naked Thoughts From A Silent Chaos” sees
Charly Sahona not only perform all guitar and
keyboard duties but also step up to the
microphone for the first time. The rest of
the trio of musicians are Venturia band mates
Diego Rapacchietti (Drums) and Thomas James-Potrel
(Bass) who have created an ultra powerful
power trio format.
This
8 song collection sees Charly Sahona show
again his abilities as a talented
multi-instrumentalist and as a songwriter as
well.
Lyrically, “Naked Thoughts From A Silent
Chaos” is an introspection on the different
reasons that pushes an artist to do everything
in life to transcend their emotions, passions,
fears, neurosis, libido and more into their
art. It asks the questions of what pushes an
artist to continue his unending quest of
perfection. Sahona states, “It's a kind
of psychoanalysis. My main influences come
from the things I experienced in my personal
life during the last 2 years: All the energy,
the money, the time you give and spend into
music at the expense of the loss of many
different beautiful things you could have
lived”.
The
song writing for the album commenced after the
release of the Venturia "Hybrid" album in
2008. The recording began in Switzerland in
May 2009 with final mixing taking place in
September 2009." More recently a video for
“Relieved” has been released and made
available on YouTube and other media platforms
with positive feedback.
"Naked Thoughts
From A Silent Chaos” delivers an exceptionally
high quality with immense crossover appeal.
