[1] At first, Erick Ávila composed the music while Juan Pablo Pizarro and Sergio Villarroel wrote the lyrics.
With these changes, Six Magics began to compose the lyrics in English and worked to the goal of creating a professional album.
Six Magics started then and continued to mix ard rock with a Latin American traditional beat in a style called Folk Metal.
His groundbreaking work with Dream Theater on two of their most successful recordings, “Images and Words” and “A Change Of Seasons”, established Prater as perhaps the most sought after producer in all of modern progressive rock.
His rich track record also contains an impressive list of best selling mainstream rock artists from the last twenty years (Firehouse, Arcade, Nightranger, Stephen Pearcy, etc.).
The álbum was called “Behind the Sorrow” and was released by the Italian label Coroner Records From a creative standpoint, Six Magics has experienced a remarkable growth spurt over the last years beginning with the decision to enlist the services of Prater and continuing with the arrival of Elizabeth Vasquez, the band’s new lead vocalist.
The decision to break new ground in a changing musical landscape by bringing her brooding, sultry voice to the foreground of the group’s sound signals a courageous sense of adventure sorely needed in a field dominated by faceless male counterparts.
Six Magics also played in Chile at The Metal Fest, the first version of a Chilean festival in which bands like Testament, Blind Guardian, Anthrax, UDO among others were headliners.
