Xavier Boscher: “La Cité Séraphine” CD and Digital 6th September 2025 Self Released. French guitar Shredder.
Astonishing guitarist, everyone knowns he has solo projects in which he speaks with his guitar. While every cover artworks look the same, they are part of different projects. This one shows the creativity further than just music.
This album comes, with a story book and a video that shows up the universe it talks about. This is a complete immersion into another world, you are reading a story with the images and the music. A bit like watching a movie and hearing the words played with the guitar.
Xavier Boscher appears in The Metal Mag pages for many years now.
Have a test:
His influences come from the classical universe like many, but in this particular album it reminds me sometimes of Mekong Delta who made albums in the Thrash Metal style inspired by classical geniuses.
It is still a beautiful guitar shredding adventure, it ‘s electric and also very light. Imagine dancing on a cloud where magesty is flying with the angels. Xavier Boscher has released a masterpiece, once again we can only bow to the mighty creator. He deserves to be known and spread. His music and universe could be played in a theater with dancers and musicians. LIstening to the album I can picture the act clearly.
Each song is like parts of the story, you will travel through your mind with pleasure. A must-have 100/100.
