ALMAH was initially established in 2006 as a project of ANGRA’s singer Edu Falaschi. With Angra Edu released 3 important albums and composed many hits like Nova Era, Heroes Of Sand, The Course Of Nature, Spread Your Fire, Bleeding Heart; this renowned Brazilian prog power band has already sold over 1 million cds during more-than-15-year career. No wonder that Edu’s new band ALMAH achieved big success worldwide very fast.
Since 2006 ALMAH has released two albums worldwide, has turned from a solo-project into a regular band with excellent musicians, and has won its own important place on the world metal scene. Edu Falaschi’s mate from Angra Felipe Andreoli also joined the band in 2007 and they work in ALMAH simultaneously with Angra. ALMAH is currently working on the third studio album.

Felipe Andreoli about Almah and the current moment of his career
August 18, 2010

Dear friends! We have a direct message from Felipe Andreoli to you. The bassist tells about Almah and the current moment of his career in general.
"Hi there, folks! It's been a busy year so far! Now it's time to release 'Aqua' and hit the road again. But that doesn't mean that we'll forget you, Almah fans.We've been working on compositions and ideas all this time, and we're pretty excited about many of them. We were also able to do some shows in Brazil which was cool not only to be on the road, but also because we really miss each other in this band. Maybe we'll have some other dates coming this second semester, too.
Apart form that I'm again doing some shows with Kiko Loureiro in his solo project, and I'm always playing with Rafael Bittencourt in his solo project as well. There are also two instrumental projects I'm playing with lately, one with Brazilian guitarist Silas Fernandes and other called 'Tao Caos & Cronus', with drummer Renato Bon. Last but not least, a totally remodeled http://www.felipeandreoli.com/ will be available in a very near future, courtesy of designer Gustavo Sazes. Cheers!»

That is why I’m here now to make it absolutely clear that I reply to the fans only in my official FACEBOOK and MYSPACE. For those who would like to get to know about me and what kind of direct communication channels I have, please, visit my official website: www.edufalaschi.com.br.

Almah official statement
July 04, 2010

ALMAH has just finished another part of Fragile Equality Tour. The band played in various cities of Brazil finishing this leg on the stage of Marreco’s fest in Brasilia. ALMAH’s founder, frontman and mastermind Edu Falaschi has come up with an official statement about the recent tour and the future of the band:
“I would like to give a lot of thanks to everybody from the name of Almah for your incredible love and support during these five years of the band. The whole FRAGILE EQUALITY TOUR was unforgettable, mainly due to the amazing presence of the fans on the latest shows: it’s impossible to explain how it feels to see you singing along to all our songs! We haven’t been able to visit all the cities where we would like to play, but we will make it possible in the next tour! At the moment Felipe Andreoli and me are quite busy with the new ANGRA’s things, which naturally slow down the rhythm of Almah activities. However, it doesn’t mean that the band will be stopped. We are already working at new ideas for the next album and when the best moment for it comes we will record a new CD and we will back on track! See you soon, my friends! ALMAH is here: Edu Falaschi, Felipe Andreoli, Marcelo Barbosa, Paulo Schroeber and Marcelo Moreira!”

Marcelo Moreira will record the drums for STILL ALIVE’s debut album produced by Edu Falaschi (Angra, Almah)
May 16, 2010

The band from Rio de Janeiro STILL ALIVE has recently confirmed that all the drum parts for its debut album produced by Edu Falaschi will be recorded by renowned Brazilian drummer Marcelo Moreira (Almah, Burning In Hell). According to the vocalist of the band Walter Campos, drummer Rodrigo Carvalho is not a member of Still Alive anymore and for his replacement the wand wanted to invite someone really experienced who can put a lot of energy in the songs. The choice was obvious, as soon as Moreira fits all the requirements of Still Alive and he is also a friend and a band mate of the band’s producer Edu Falaschi. The first album of STILL ALIVE, as-yet untitled, is to be released in the second half of 2010.

Still Alive (ex-Ruthless Cry) was established in 2002 in Rio de Janeiro and released its first EP “Into The Snakepit” in 2006. Right now the band is preparing to enter the studio to record its first full-length album. Edu Falaschi started his career as a producer in 1998 with his band Symbols. He also produced both Almah albums, “Almah” (2006/2007) and “Fragile Equality” (2008, together with his band mate Felipe Andreoli). Currently Eduardo is working at the debut CDs of two Brazilian bands Artemis (Brasília, Brazil) and Still Alive (Rio de Janeiro, Brazil) as a producer.
