Biography
There are at least three artists known as Gabriel:
1.Gabriel is a progressive rock band. It’s never too late for a debut solo album. Although Gabriel Agudo has been active as a vocalist in the progressive rock world for some time with Bad Dreams, The Steve Rothery Band and In Continuum, he has been keen to forge his own identity with a solo career. The appropriately titled “New Life” is his first coming out party as the artist known simply as Gabriel. Handy that it’s such a prog name to begin with, and there are more than a few nods to the man whose identity held the genesis for that name. Indeed, Bad Dreams was initially a tribute band which covered the Gabriel and Collins years with skill before releasing their superb debut album of original material “Apocalypse of the Mercy”. But all of that is behind him now. Gabriel is ready to unleash his own vision via this new collection of songs and he already has gigs lined up to realize them on the stage as well. He calls the songs on this album his “spiritual map” and each track takes on another aspect of his soul passing through various levels.
2. Gabriel is a post hardcore band from Bodø, Norway. Inspired by the arctic nature and the music of fellow Norwegian hardcore bands such as The Spectacle, Dominic, Kollwitz and Snöras, Gabriel creates their own mix of hardcore and post-metal with progressive and experimental elements. Although the band allow themselves to play both short, aggressive and up-tempo songs aswell as long, slow and heavy ones, they still manage to form a true and characteristic sound and expression through their music.
3. Gabriel is an electronic ambient artist who inspires emotional visuals with a rich sound, full of textures and analog warmth.GABRIEL enjoys weaving obscure samples and down-tempo hip-hop elements into his music to create compositions suitable for both the dramatic and lethargic.
