(Progressive Metal) Richard Campbell - Orpheus: A Rock Opera - 2010, MP3, V0

Richard Campbell is a multi-instrumentalist from London, UK, with a passion for progressive rock and metal. His musical dream would be to create a perfect blend of Dream Theater, Queen, Spock's Beard, Symphony X, Pantera, Elton John, Tool, and ELO...

Richard's musical journey began with piano lessons as a child, and over the years he picked up numerous instruments, developing his skills through playing with a variety of bands. He played drums with a rock/metal band (Hunger For The Crash), bass in a pop/blues band (Jamthreads), keyboards with a Dream Theater covers band, guitar for an Ugly Kid Joe covers band, bass/programming for a Mr Bungle tribute band (Bungle Junior), and drums for a Tool covers band.

After many years studying the art of recording, Richard finally opened his own studio in 2009. Alongside running this business, Richard is now concentrating on his own 'solo' material, enlisting the help of singers he has met over the years. In 2010 he released his first album - Orpheus: A Rock Opera, a concept album which tells the story of Orpheus and Eurydice. His second rock opera, based on Mary Shelley's Frankenstein, was released in December 2012.
