Alírio Netto , vocalist of Queen Extravaganza , released All Things Must Pass , his second solo album, this Friday, the 6th, with references to great names in world rock and a tribute to George Harrison of the Beatles .
Inspired by longtime idols like Chris Cornell and Freddie Mercury , the new album is predominantly in English and makes direct reference to Harrison's first solo album, which he considers a "watershed moment in rock history" and a perfect reference for the pandemic era.
“It was a somewhat turbulent time in the world and, obviously, when I thought about the album title, it was [this idea of] 'Dude, everything will pass, including this pandemic',” he said in an interview on The Wikimetal Happy Hour . “My lyrics are all about my experiences, some things are a bit autobiographical, but I made this album more inclusive.”
Alírio had already been in the bands Khallice and Age of Artemis when he was invited to replace Andre Matos in Shaman . On stage, he also works as a musical actor and has participated in world-renowned productions, including starring in We Will Rock You, the official musical production of Queen , and Jesus Christ Superstar .
