  • Arjen Anthony Lucassen (born 3 April 1960) is a Dutch singer, songwriter, multi-instrumentalist musician and record producer best known for his long-running progressive metal/rock opera project Ayreon. Lucassen started his career in 1980 as the guitarist and backing vocalist of Dutch band Bodine as Iron Anthony, before joining Vengeance in 1984. After eight years he left the band, wanting to go into a more progressive direction, and released two years later an unsuccessful solo album entitled Pools of Sorrow, Waves of Joy under the nickname Anthony. In 1995, Lucassen released an album uncredited to any artist called Ayreon: The Final Experiment, in which he sang, wrote every song and played most of the instruments. The album conducted to the creation of Ayreon; despite being relatively unknown at first, the project gained notable attention and praise with the release of its third album Into the Electric Castle, establishing Lucassen as a notable composer of rock operas. Following Ayreon's success, Lucassen has been involved in many other projects: he is the creator, composer and current guitarist/keyboardist of Star One, Guilt Machine, and The Gentle Storm, and the creator and former guitarist of Ambeon and Stream of Passion. He composes and writes most of his songs, but leaves the lyrics to his musical partners in some of his projects. Lucassen plays a wide variety of instruments: his main instruments are guitar and keyboards, however he also plays bass, banjo and many others. Overall, in his career and including all his bands and projects (as principal instrumentalist/creative force or as a member), Lucassen has released twenty-six studio albums, four live albums, two EPs and seventeen singles. He has also made many minor participations alongside various artists including Shadow Gallery, After Forever, Within Temptation and Avantasia, and appears in over 50 albums. Since the creation of Ayreon, Lucassen progressively made a name for himself under rock and metal reviewers, with many critics calling him a "genius", and praising his composition abilities and originality. In his review of 01011001, AllMusic reviewer Cosmo Lee stated "Music this over the top almost defies criticism. Reviewing it is like reviewing the world's tallest building. It doesn't care; it just goes on and on." (en)
  • Arjen Anthony Lucassen (3 de abril de 1960) es un músico y compositor neerlandés de heavy metal. Canta e interpreta una gran variedad de instrumentos incluyendo guitarras, flautas y sintetizadores; a pesar de que él no puede leer o escribir partituras (aunque obviamente, como guitarrista, conoce acordes y secuencias de los mismos). En bandas como Ayreon reúne un gran grupo de músicos y graba álbumes con ellos. Frecuentemente se le acredita haber revivido el género de la ópera rock. Lucassen comenzó su carrera en 1980 como guitarrista y vocalista secundario de la banda holandesa Bodine, antes de unirse a Vengeance en 1985. Después de 8 años, abandonó la banda en busca de una dirección más progresiva, y dos años más tarde editó un álbum solista titulado Pools of Sorrow, Waves of Joy bajo el seudónimo "Anthony" (es)
  • Arjen Anthony Lucassen, né le 3 avril 1960 à Hilversum (Pays-Bas), est un auteur, compositeur, chanteur et multi-instrumentiste néerlandais de metal et de rock progressif, principalement connu pour son opéra metal Ayreon. Lucassen joue de nombreux instruments: si ses principaux sont la guitare, le clavier et le synthétiseur, il manie également la flute, la basse, le banjo, le piano, l'orgue Hammond et le mellotron. Sa carrière a débuté en 1980. Il était alors le guitariste du groupe néerlandais Bodine où il officiait sous le nom d'Iron Anthony.

En 1994, il sort son premier album solo "Pools of Sorrow, Waves of Joy" sous le pseudonyme Anthony. En 1995, Lucassen a enregistré l'album "Ayreon: The Final Experiment" où il a composé chaque chanson, chante et joue la plupart des instruments. L'album a conduit à la création du projet de rock progressif Ayreon qui a fait de Lucassen un compositeur de metal opéra reconnu. À la suite du succès d'Ayreon, Lucassen a participé à de nombreux autres projets: il est le créateur et guitariste de Star One, Guilt Machine, Ambeon ainsi que le créateur et ancien guitariste de Stream of Passion. Il compose et écrit la plupart de ses chansons mais laisse parfois l'écriture des paroles à ses partenaires dans certains de ses projets. Au cours de sa carrière, Lucassen a sorti un total de vingt-et-un albums studio, deux albums live, quatre EPs et huit singles. Cependant il a également effectué de nombreuses apparitions mineures pour d'autres artistes ou groupes, comme Shadow Gallery, After Forever et Within Temptation, et le total d'albums studio auquel il a participé s'élève à plus d'une cinquantaine. Depuis la création d'Ayreon, Lucassen a gagné progressivement de la notoriété auprès des critiques, certains le qualifiant même de génie et louant ses talents de compositeur. (fr)

  • Arjen Anthony Lucassen (Den Haag, 3 april 1960) is een Nederlands componist en gitarist. Hij groeide op in Den Haag. Hij was een tijdje gitarist bij de Haagse hardrockband Bodine. De Randstad werd hem echter al snel te druk, waardoor hij naar Noord-Brabant verhuisde. Lucassen brak definitief door als gitarist bij de Waalwijkse hardrockband Vengeance. De metalopera Ayreon wordt ook als Waalwijkse act beschouwd, terwijl het project vele artiesten kent vanuit vele streken.Ondanks dat Ayreon met zijn zeldzame liveoptreden een publiek van 12.000 mensen wist te trekken, werd er niet gekozen voor een grote zaal. Hij bleef liever op vertrouwde grond, waardoor de keuze voor 013 in Tilburg voor de hand lag. Lucassen speelde een belangrijke rol in eerste lichting van Stream of Passion. (nl)
