Something's Cooking

Taboo Voodoo is a power trio fronted by drummer extraordinaire Mike Terrana (who has played with almost everyone from Yngwie Malmsteen, Rage, Alex Rudi Pell and Tony MacAlpine) together with France's number one guitar player, Cyril Achard. Something's Cookin' could be described as modern instrumental fusion with a heavy approach and a good sense of melody so that the music is a pleasure to listen to - besides being interesting. The music of Taboo Voodoo is far more complicated than anything most metal bands would ever come close to. Terrana's first step outside the heavy metal world was his solo album 'Shadows From The Past' (Lion Music), which also features Steve Lukather and Kevin Chown. To be able to make Taboo Voodoo a reality Mike Terrana of course needed a good guitarist who could also compose the music: Cyril Achard has been considered something of a genius in his native country France ever since his teens and has recorded and toured with several domestic acts before starting his own solo career.
