Rock-Эксклюзив с Игорем Черидником ВОЛШЕБНАЯ НИТЬ АРИАДНЫ № 77. Эфир от 02.09.14 (136)Frost* (U.K.) Альбом "Milliontown". 2006 Группа была сформирована в сентябре 2004 года, лириком, продюсером и музыкантом Джемом Годфри, (более известным миру, по работе, заключавшейся в составлении топ-чартов поп хитов, для групп, включая Atomic Kitten) когда он принял сознательное решение, возвратиться к его музыкальному прошлому - написанию и исполнению прогрессивной музыки, как во времена Freefall. После обильного прослушивания современной прогрессивной музыки, он отметил для себя Джона Митчелла (John Mitchell) из Arena, The Urbane and Kino (в настоящее время лидер-гитарист и вокалист It Bites). Митчелл затем представил Годфри - Джона Джоуитта (John Jowitt) также из Arena и IQ, Jadis). В итоге, компанию дополнил Энди Эдвардс (Andy Edwards) из The Wikkamen, Priory of Brion, IQ и the Ian Parker Band. Джон Бойес, (John Boyes) оказавший Годфри помощь в создании Freefall в 1990 - ые, из группы Rook, уже выполнил существенную работу по написании партий ритм-гитары. После распада и преобразования группы, принятый Годфри Declan Burke из Darwins Radio добавил партии гитары и вокала на альбом, Experiments in Mass Appeal. В ноябре 2008, Энди Эдвардс объявил то, что в связи с его новой работой лектора колледжа, он не будет выступать с группой, хотя мог бы учавствовать в будущих работах группы. В январе 2009, Ник Двирджилайо (Nick DVirgilio) из Spocks Beard, был объявлен как сессионный барабанщик группы для RoSFest 2009. В поисках постоянного барабанщика, выбор пал на Алекса Томаса (Alex Thomas) Джем Годфри - композитор, аражнировщик и продюсер, работавший с Atomic Kitten. Полная попсня. Но в душе парень обожал прогрессив, и в 2004-м организовал этот самый свой Frost* - для оттяга. Единственная и очень качественная пластинка с бешеным напором и великолепными аранжировками. Жаль, что одна такая... Владислав представляет замечательную "находку" из Италии - группу "Phoenix again"..........
