Back with their 9th CD comes this popular melodic Neo-Prog band from the Netherlands with a new album themed on the 75th anniversary of D-Day!

KNIGHT AREA is one of CDS’ Prog fan-base most popular modern Prog bands and their early albums, all influenced by GENESIS / MARILLION / IQ all sold very well indeed. Over the past decade the band have honed that melodic-rock sound down to one very much their own!

After their 6th album KNIGHT AREA felt a very strong urge to create an album with a deeper message within. The first single: ‘Blood On The Risers’ for example is dedicated to the American paratroopers of the 82nd and 101st Airborne Divisions, who made nightly parachute drops early on D-Day, June 6.
In that respect is the whole a tribute to the fallen ones who fought for the freedom of Europe.
The music blends orchestra and guitars perfectly together to create heavy symphonic rock that could easily be a soundtrack. KNIGHT AREA is an established musical entity in the world of symphonic and Neo-Progressive Rock. They have toured all over the world and recorded and mixed this new album with Joost van den Broek (EPICA / AYREON). The album features Robby Valentine on grand piano and is also an introduction to new singer Jan Willem Ketelaers (AYREON).

"To pass on the memory, to remind that today we live in peace, freedom and dignity because others gave their life for us." - KNIGHT AREA.

‘D-Day’ is released on 20th September 2019.
