Visions of Atlantis ist eine �sterreichische Metal-Band, die sich zwischen Power Metal und Symphonic Metal einordnen l�sst. Besonderheit der im Stil stark an Bands wie Nightwish oder die �sterreichischen Kollegen von Edenbridge erinnernden Band ist es, dass fast alle Songs als Duett zwischen der weiblichen und der m�nnlichen Gesangsstimme arrangiert sind. Visions of Atlantis wurden im Jahr 2000 von Werner Fiedler, Mike Koren, Christian Stani, Thomas Caser und Chris Kamper gegr�ndet. Etwas sp�ter kam S�ngerin Nicole Bogner dazu. Im Jahr 2002 erschien dann das erste Studioalbum der Band mit dem Titel Eternal Endless Infinity. Der Visions of Atlantis-Song Lemuria aus dem Cast Away Album wurde von den Veranstaltern der Leichtathletik-Weltmeisterschaften 2011 in Daegu (Kor) f�r den Beginn der Medaillenzeremonien in Teilen als offizieller Song verwendet.

"Cast Away" is the second studio album by Austrian Symphonic metal band "Visions of Atlantis" originally released in 2004. "Cast Away" was the last album to feature female lead singer Nicole Bogner alongside guitarist Werner Fiedler, male singer Mario Plank, bassist Mike Koren, drummer Thomas Caser and keyboardist Miro Holly.
"Visions of Atlantis" were one of the first bands to experiment with mixing male and female vocals over a symphonic melodic/power metal basis. On this early release, Nicole's vocal parts obscure Mario's contribution with the majority of lines performed by the female singer. Her approach lies mainly within the classical singing method, without touching operatic style, though one feels that a more freestyle/rock approach would be more effective on certain parts.
The overall sound is built on rhythm guitars, up front metallic rhythm section, leading keyboard harmonies topped by the vocal duets. Clearly the songwriting process has been kept as simple as possible a fact that granted the band considerable mainstream metal appeal internationally, however it is not quite at the level of following releases such as "Trinity" and "Delta" particularly on the subject of the verses and choruses. For fans of female fronted metal in the style of "Nightwish" and "Epica", "Visions of Atlantis" is a solid offer in the genre.
