Tea Time Interview: The greatest epic metal opera composer of all time!

There is no one better at finding the best talent in metal and bringing them together. We owe Arjen!

Arjen Lucassen, the mastermind behind Ayreon and Star One, sits down with me over a cup of tea and a load of laughs. We talk about his past, his compositional style and inspirations, Ronnie James Dio, his distaste for classical opera and much more. We even get into some of his favorite artists and how he finds them here on YouTube!

Like I said, there's no one better. Don't skip ahead, you'll miss way too much.

Please join us as I sit down and talk with Arjen Lucassen for the very first time!
