The new album was released on May 24th via Escape Music. It has been six
years but Aldo is now back with the fourth chapter of his Project. “My
way of writing and producing the songs needs a lot of time”, he says,
“One could say I am a perfectionist, but when I have musical ideas for
my guitar, I often have the other guys working with their own inputs:
Also I need to have Tony Martin to work on the lyrics at the end, so
this takes away a lot of time”.
Aldo comments: "Project IV continues the line of Project II, III,
musically and I' m sure that who loved my second, and third work will
appreciate the IV album in the same way and more, since the production
work is a lot improved this time and produced by
Dario Mollo (MOLLO /
MARTIN)."
According to a press release, "the sound of Giuntini’s work is a
combination of “the warmth and the power of Black Sabbath's Headless
Cross, Tyr
, RAINBOW's Long Live Rock & Roll and Rising and
DIO's
Holy Diver with energetic sound of
LOUDNESS, the Japanese metal heroes!
Giuntini’s guitar playing is mainly influenced by
Akira Takasaki, Vivian
Campbell, Edward Van Halen, Jake E. Lee, John Norum and, of course
Malmsteen."
Handling all vocals once again on Project IV is none other than Tony
Martin (ex-Black Sabbath), with the help of
Ezio Secomandi (on drums),
Dario Patti (on keyboards) and
Fulvio Gaslini (on bass).
“I wanted to have Tony again,” explains Aldo, “because he is my
favourite voice and I think that the blend of our styles is just
perfect!”
