'''Arjen Anthony Lucassen''' (1960) is a Dutch ProgressiveRock and {{Metal}} musician, songwriter, RecordProducer, singer and multi-instrumentalist. He has been active on many projects, creating a bit of an ArchivePanic for those who want to check it all out.

He started out as guitarist for the Dutch band Bodine from 1980 to 1984. From 1984 to 1992 he was a songwriter and composer for the band Vengeance, but then left to start a solo career. His debut solo album "Pools of Sorrow, Waves Of Joy" (1994), released under the name "Anthony" flopped. Success only came when his started his ambitious Music/{{Ayreon}} project, which lead to eight RockOpera albums [[ConceptAlbum built around the same concept.]]. Lucassen has worked on many other projects and is one of the few ProgressiveMetal musicians to actually be hailed as a "genius" by serious music critics. His 2012 solo album ''Music/LostInTheNewReal'' is the SurprisinglyImprovedSequel to his debut album.

!! Arjen Anthony Lucassen's work provides examples of:

* {{Crossover}}: He has worked together with Music/WithinTemptation and many other bands. Some of these collaborations have led to new bands being formed, like The Gentle Storm.
