Mike Campese's Total Freedom CD features a number of his solo pieces put together to create a story and to express his versatility as a guitarist and writer. The album establishes many moods, with some pieces recorded with only one or two tracks. Campese handles all the instrumentation, while the music covers a significant dynamic range, from introspective ("Amberay", "Last Train Out", "Heaven") to high-tech guitarmanship ("Freedom", "Indian War"). With Total Freedom, Campese delivers another round of highly accomplished fretwork and stylistic variety.
Sonic Stomp is the debut instrumental, over the top, extreme rock guitar CD from New York musician Mike Orlando. Sonic Stomp also features such guests as guitar great Ron Thal - Bumblefoot and A.J. Pero of Twisted Sister. The twelve tracks take the listener from raging over the top guitar playing with sheer finesse and lighting speed to beautiful ballads with great feel - and everything in between. Fans of Steve Vai, Joe Satriani, John Petrucci and Yngwie Malmsteen will love this Sonic Stomp - a must-have for all guitar fans and music fans as well.
Illustrious English vocalist Phil Mogg and bassist Pete Way, known for their work as the foundation of international recording artists UFO, are together once again on Edge Of The World to deliver a collection of inventive aggressive rock numbers backed by superb drummer Aynsley Dunbar (Bowie, Zappa, Journey, and many more) and Shrapnel Records` new guitar prodigy George Bellas. Bellas is in fine form, shredding and delivering his now trademark sweeps over the hard rock songs penned by Mogg and Way.
