IAN PARRY LEAVES THAT GREETING FOR YOU...

Ian Parry is proud to announce the worldwide release of his 5th solo album by Metal Mind Productions. Ian celebrates his career with his 30th studio album “In Flagrante Delicto” meaning (in the very act of committing a crime) is in Ian’s humble opinion, “the crime being plastic waste, but also including a touch of fantasy as well as fiction”. With 10 hypnotic catchy modern power rock synthesizer/guitar/vocal based songs in a diverse style ranging from Yes style synthesizer atmospheres, to Whitesnake/ Foreigner classic rock and a hint of Rammstein together with a commercial heart felt Bad English/Peter Gabriel style ballad. “In Flagrante Delicto” has a powerful lyrical anecdote with melodic classic power rock enhanced by modern synthesizer based tracks and deals with the issue of plastic and toxic waste very much in the mainstream media at present and a subject Ian holds very close to his heart. Ian had embraced in part the issue of global pollution with the release of Visions back 2006, Visions of a better future at least. Astonishingly after more than a decade these challenges humanity faces to this day seem to be becoming progressively bigger. After spending more than a decade (co-) writing and compiling songs to best illustrate this serious issue, Ian sings out a passionate message from the heart, but still retains the creative edge for a little fantasy for his fans. Ian’s wish is simply to make more people aware of what’s happening in his own way via music, with the talent and support of his family of incredible musicians; guitarists - Stephan Lill (Vanden plas) & co-writer; Patrick Rondat; drummers - Casey Grillo (Kamelot), Imre Daun (Brian Robertson band), Andreas Lill & Gary King; bass guitarists - Barend Courbois (Blind Guardian), Torsten Reichert; Keyboard player & Co-songwriter - Jeroen van der Wiel, plus many more guest musicians performing a selection of 10 masterful tracks. (see list below).

As an established singer in the world of Rock & Metal with worldwide sales exceeding 200,000, Ian Parry’s almost 40 year career being with his first professional band Mono Pacific in 1981 (also featuring Zak Starkey Son of Beatles drummer Ringo Starr) has given him the opportunity to work with many well-known artists such as; Kamelot; Elegy; Ayreon; Mob Rules; Royal Hunt; Vengeance, Hammerhead, Valencia, Infinity Overture, Crystal Tears, Von Baltzer & his self-produced 5 album epic rock metal concept Consortium Project.

Now Ian joins forces together with an even more impressive collaboration of world class musicians in a melodic power rock formation performing 10 tracks on his 5th solo album “In Flagrante Delicto”.

Produced by Ian with 30 albums under his belt “In Flagrante Delicto” has been masterfully mixed by Swedish Engineer/Producer Martin Kronlund (Hammerfall/ Firewind/ Rock Emporium). Ian now delivers this memorable “back to the roots” melodic power rock 5th solo album, comprising of 10 self & co-written tracks together with Keyboard player Jeroen van der Wiel & Guitarist Stephan Lill. “In Flagrante Delicto” now opens a new chapter in Ian’s phenomenal career combining passion, true facts & raw power in a modern synthesizer / guitar based melodic rock album.
