SOULSPELL was conceived by drummer Heleno Vale.
Many vocalists play different characters in a story concerning the
conflicts among human emotions. These characters face situations of
internal conflict as they are requested for making decisions which,
without their knowledge, affect and change the course of the present,
future, and even past of all the other characters.
The SOULSPELL
story intends to make us wonder how a fifteen-year-old boy, a powerful
evil dragon, or even a simple humble lumberjack, by simply living and
believing, can interfere in the lives of all in every possible
dimension.
