Michael Romeo, guitarist of New Jersey-based progressive metal group Symphony X, has released an animated music video for the track ‘Hybrids’. Once again directed by Wayne Joyner, the clip can be viewed below.
Michael Romeo issued second solo full-length studio album War Of The Worlds // Pt. 2 on March 25th, 2022 through InsideOut Music.
Romeo stated: “I’m really excited to finally release the new solo album, War Of The Worlds // Pt. 2. After many delays, lockdowns, new variants, etc… ha! It looks like things are getting back on track. I’m hoping this new music will put some smiles on some faces in these uncertain times. My best wishes to everyone for 2022!”
For the follow up to 2018’s War Of The Worlds // Pt. 1 Michael Romeo welcomed a couple of returning players – drummer John Macaluso and bassist John “JD” DeServio – but the album marks the first time he worked with Croatian singer Dino Jelusick (Crno Perje, Jelusick, Whitesnake).
Romeo commented: “I go way back with John and JD, so they were the obvious choices, but this time I wanted to try something different with the vocals. Dino came highly recommended, and he totally nailed it! He really brought an exciting element to the music.”
