Tweet

Legacy Pilots is a multinational band and their spohmore album is entitled Aviation and last 64 minutes and nine seconds. The track A Different League is according to Frank Us, «First, this song was about love at first sight. Who can’t relate to the moment you first lay eyes on the most beautiful person you’ve ever seen? Later on, I’ve realized, that the brilliant musicianship that the guys brought into this, justify as well, to call this song A Different League. 😉 ».

The Hamburg-based musician Frank Us looks back on a long musical career. He played in a few local bands before turning music into his profession, successfully composing jingles for products and companies. His secret love is and has always been the progressive rock that had the biggest musical influence on him. Frank US says, progressive rock always has moments of calmness, sometimes inside a big epic piece, sometimes on its own as a silent ballad.

Frank Us have collected a impressing line-up on Aviation:

From catchy pop pearls and ballads, to sophisticated rock titles and epic-progressive works with durations of over 10 minutes, the musicians offer a wide range of their art, in which the composition and not the undoubtedly existing technique is still in the foreground.

Frank Us sates about the track An Adventures Journey, The song tells the story about someone who has a permanent wanderlust. Though this journey is an adventure or even has dangerous moments, after his return and a short moment of silence, his inner restlessness starts again…

So it is a movie score, for a film that only exist in your imagination.

This piece of music not only features a brilliant Todd Suchermann but also a spectacular guitar solo by Steve Morse.

Us tells abou the song Fear Part One – Proximity and Distance «A song about people who find it difficult to enter into relationships. Since they had already had bad experiences, the fear of disappointment sometimes seems overwhelming.

This song features Marco Minnemann on the drums with a wonderful performance».
