Dr. Schafausen, alias Sergio Pagnacco, is an Italian bassist and composer, best known for being one of the founding members of the seminal metal band Vanexa. In 2009, he joined the power prog-metal band Labyrinth, playing all over the world sharing stages with Motorhead, Saxon, Ozzy Osbourne, Iron Maiden, Megadeth and many more. His doctorate in audiology sciences and his profession as a university lecturer in subjects such as cochlear implants and pediatric deafness also engages him in various seminars dedicated to hearing protection for musicians. His new project can be defined as innovative. A dystopian and essential metal, sometimes chaotic and frenetic to better identify with the current society. Fear, anxiety, and a negative future are well represented by this work, the first to identify with the term dystopian metal. Dr. Schafausen can be defined as a dystopian author because he speaks of an imaginary reality of the future with negative and predictable inclinations. Dystopias are often characterized by dehumanization, tyrannical governments, environmental disaster, or other characteristics associated with a cataclysmic decline in society. Dystopian societies appear in many fictional works and artistic representations, particularly in stories set in the future.
As someone who adores music as much as I do, one of the best feelings in the world is seeing a band you truly loved drop groundbreaking music! I am excited to announce that is not the case based on their new single My Beautiful Girl.
My Beautiful Girl opens out strong from the gate with great vocals & instrumentals. While the band describes it as a new sound for them, old school fans will pinpoint some familiar traits in the song that showcase their signature sound.
A lot has changed within the band over the years but they sound reinvigorated in My Beautiful Girl while leaving you with the impression that they have a lot more to offer in the foreseeable future! The band line up includes;
Slava Antonenko – Vocals , Michael Pahalen – Guitars, Dr. Schafausen – Bass & Vocals and Anatole Lyssenko – Drums.
It usually takes a pretty strong pull for me to be excited about a band from the very first play of a song, and this is the first time that I have heard of the work produced by Dr. Schafausen. I can assure you all that I am very excited to hear more from this group.
I can only imagine that they deliver just as well live as they do recorded, as all that was crossing through my mind throughout playback was how much I would to hear it played from a stage, as part of the sweaty and bouncy crowd that are sure to follow them.
I can absolutely guarantee that I will go away and look more into the work of Dr. Schafausen. I can genuinely say that I have not been so excited by a new piece of music for a while – or as would be more fitting to say ‘it’s been a long time’.
