The new Progressive Metal project Vass/Katsionis published the official music video for the track “Vengeance Is Mine” from new upcoming album “Cynical Silence” due out on April 07, 2023 via Symmetric Records. Purchase the track and stream the music video on Bandcamp:
“Cynical Silence” is the sophomore album by the Progressive Metal project between musician/producer Bob Katsionis and singer/lyricist Billy Vass, based in Athens, Greece.
“Their second effort presents us with their unique blend of 90’s-00’s progressive metal of Fates Warning, Queensryche, and more modern elements by bands like Pain Of Salvation and Leprous.
The powerful vocals of Bill Vass give a unique flavor to this blend, while his lyrics bring a more esoteric point of view to the whole project.“

The Progressive Metal project of Billy Vass and Bob Katsionis, based in Athens, Greece, is proud to announce their sophomore album with the title “Cynical Silence.”
The Digital and CD-Digipak release date is April 7th, 2023, via Symmetric Records.
The album artwork was created using the latest development in Artificial Intelligence technology: The band imported the entire album’s lyrical content into the OpenGPT chatbot, providing them with the proper prompt to use on Midjourney. The result was an image that resembles 100% the lyrical and musical concept of “Cynical Silence.”
