XORIGIN - State Of The Art (2011) Xorigin is a new exciting band based around two Scandinavian musicians with a history dating back to 1999.
Vocalist / Keyboardist Johannes Stole (ex Slaves To Fashion) and guitarist Daniel Palmqvist (ex The Murder Of My Sweet) first met when students at Musicians Institute in Los Angeles where they formed the band Orange Crush.
The project disbanded and 2 of the members Johannes Stole and Daniel Palmqvist continued the music careers in Sweden and Norway, their home countries.
Now they have teamed up again, together with skillful drummer / producer Daniel Flores (XsavioR, Frozen Rain, Deacon Street Project), and it seems that they've timed the release of their debut "State Of The Art" for the right moment.
Stylistically, this is album is pure Melodic Rock / AOR, with terrific vocals, big hooks, lots of keyboards and melodic guitars.
