Instrumental Prog guitarist Samuli Federley released “Lifestream” July 20th through Inverse Records. I am so glad I checked this out. Anyone that is into melodic, experimental guitarists that don’t overdo it and create great soundscapes (IE Graham Young). Federley also seems to have a flair for the dramatic and […]
I had a great opportunity to interview my Divinex homeboys and it’s quite the detailed interview! Everyone knows my obsession with them, and really hit home with me seeing another band’s perspective, writing style, process, and other areas of what makes them truly unique. I have been to at […]

You can check out my Infinitee- The Possibilities Are Endless album review for my opinions on this masterpiece. Yeah, I said it…..it’s a masterpiece. […]
Infinitee is an instrumental project by Tres Thomas of Tales Of The Tomb. This is a project that is very melodic and heavy. There’s a great use of electronics that enhances his experimental nature and further adds to the originality. What I love as a guitar player […]
Angel’s guitar playing caught me when I discovered his freakish talent years ago with the above my favorite song of his……ironically being the first song I heard from Vivaldi was “..”. A younger version was more of a shredder in my very biased opinion…..I believe the older he’s […]
