Quo Vadis

The year 2004 brings a new chapter to the history of QUO VADIS. The long awaited follow-up "Defiant Imagination" to the albums Day Into Night (2000) and Forever... (1996) demonstrates mature songwriting by a band constantly pushing the limits. Just as with the release of previous albums, both of which have been critically acclaimed nominated as Best new Canadian Talent by the 2001 Canadian Music Network Awards, QUO VADIS refused to simply clone the sounds and ideas that brought previous efforts their recognition. Instead their new offering, like its predecessors, is an evolution, a step forward and a challenge to the status quo.
Musically, the album will impress both the fans of Death and Prog metal. The band manages to balance odd time signatures and tempo changes with an exceptional sense of melody and power an equilibrium achievable only by the combination of Frydrychowicz and Berciers playing styles. DiGiorgios fretless meanderings compliment the rhythm section with counter melodies not heard since DEATHs Individual Thought Patterns. Imposing vocals, solos, as well as the tasteful use of piano, cellos and choirs complete the offering for an unforgettable experience.
This uncompromising attitude has pushed QUO VADIS to part ways with long time members, Arie Itman and Remy Beauchamp, and to enlist a full time vocalist Stephane Paré as well as Steve DiGiorgio, Roxanne Constantin and William Seghers to complete the album lineup. Mixed and mastered at Morrisound Studios in Tampa Florida by Jim Morris this album will be unlike any other release of 2004.
