Pharaoh Reacts: Ad Infinitum - Unstoppable

[@marinamucic908]

Why did the growl go so well with her voice? Because it was all her 😃 Ad Infinitum is a Swiss/German symphonic metal band lead by Melissa Bonny, fantastic singer from Switzerland. She sounds great both in clean vocals and growls. I suggest songs Marching On Versailles (both regular and acoustic version) and My Halo

Melissa was born in the French-speaking part of Switzerland and joined her school's choir when she was 6 years old. She was first a member of the folk metal band Evenmore and then co-founded the trance metal band Rage of Light: RAGE OF LIGHT - Mechanicals (OFFICIAL VIDEO) In 2018 she started Ad Infinitum as a studio project. Because of its success, she left Rage of Light and moved to Germany. The cost of living there is lower than in Switzerland. That's why her band consists of Germans. Shortly afterwards she fell in love with the drummer of Amaranthe and moved to Denmark with him. The two are now married. Amaranthe - Maximize (Masters of Rock 2019) There are also good collaborations with other bands: FEUERSCHWANZ - Warriors Of The World United (feat Thomas Winkler, Saltatio Mortis & Melissa Bonny) Melissa stayed true to this style on several albums: AD INFINITUM - Animals (Live in Oberhausen 2022) On the current album she has added more African-American music: AD INFINITUM - Surrender (Official Video) | Napalm Records

They are great, very talented and versatile. Melissa's growling is always used in a very tasteful way, based on the needs of the song: sometimes full throttle, sometimes nicely layerd, sometimes not at all. This song is from their second album "Chapter II: Legacy", which is themed around Vlad III aka Vlad Tepes aka Vlad the Impaler who was the inspiration for Bram Stoker's novel "Dracula". Ad Infinitum was founded in 2018 as a solo project for Melissa Bonny. the debut single "I Am The Storm" was recorded with guest musicians from the Dutch symphonic metal band Delain. She then decided to make it a full band project, Niklas 'Nik' Müller was the first to join. Melissa told she let him choose which position he wanted to take as, in her words, "he can play everything" and he took the drums. Nik recommended Adrian Thessenvitz for the guitar, bassist Jonas Asplind completed the lineup. Debut album "Chapter I: Monarchy" was released in 2020, it's mostly straight symphonic metal (favourite song "See You In Hell"), later that year an accoustic version (Chapter I Revisited) was released. By the end of 2020, Jonas announced his departure from the band out of health related issues (he has recovered since and is now with his own project Curse Of Cain) and introduced Korbinian 'Korbi' Benedict as his successor. With the second album (favourite song "Afterlife" feat. Nils Molin [Amaranthe]), they took the production into their own hands and added more elements from other (sub)genres, like metalcore or power metal, which they continued with the third one "Chapter III: Downfall" (favourite songs "Upside Down" & "Seth"). With the latest album "Abyss" they went for a more modern metal style. Melissa has a second band/ side project, the symphonic metal supergroup The Dark Side Of The Moon, with guitarist Hans Platz (from Feuerschwanz), harpist Jenny Diehl (one of Feuerschwanz's dancers/ stage & video performers under the stage name Mieze Myu) and drummer Morten Løwe Sørensen (Amaranthe), who happens to be Melissa's husband. Hans filled in on one or two shows for Ad Infinitum when Adrian wasn't available out of private reasons. Jenny and her Feuerschwanz combatant Mieze Musch-Musch have a guest appearance in the music video for "Seth" Adrian is co-owner & co-operator of the music production company Kla & Bauter. Nik is guitarist and vocalist of the metalcore band Devilizer and, like the other three members of Devilizer, part of the video & music production company LFM Productions. They have made some of the music videos for Ad Infinitum and most of their live show videos. Korbi is bassist for the zombie-themed hard rock/ heavy metal band Dominum and live bassist for The Dark Side Of The Moon.
