After the success of their second album, Sempre e Ovunque Oltre il Sogno -- 21st ranking in USA's Global Progressive Rock Network's TOP 100 Prog Albums - Pandora is ready to introduce their newest work,
Alibi Filosofico, which will be released September, 23rd 2013.
The band has, once again, joined forces with Matthias Scheller's AMS-BTF. Their tight bond has allowed them to continue on with their musical journey, which started many years back.
Alibi Filosofico was carried out in new recording studios Pandora Music, and was recorded, mixed and edited entirely by Claudio Colombo, taking about five months' time to complete.
One particularly important feature in the album is its important special
guests: David Jackson, Arjen A. Lucassen and Dino Fiore.
David Jackson says:
"I just recorded two great and very different tracks for Pandora. They are
another great and original Italian band. They set me a real challenge with some amazing technical passages and quite outlandish ideas. Claudio and Beppe Colombo had a great idea and said would I play the central part of 'Apollo' with my disabled students playing Soundbeam & Switches. The live session went brilliantly, and it fits perfectly. Pandora music is very rich and varied; a box of delights. I had a lot of fun with this music and they are very pleased with the collaboration."

1. Il Necromante, Khurastos e la Prossima Vittima
2. Né Titolo Né Parole
