You'll recognise some of the tracks which have been blessed with new drum tracks from my new Italian partner in crime, Andre De Carolis, as well as being remixed, mastered etc. It was real fun to put together. Rather than being just a vehicle for guitar solos, I like to write stuff that is strong in structure and riff heavy too. So it's almost like an instrumental Megadeth album with hints of Opeth, Satriani, Becker, Friedman etc.. thought I'd put it up here in case anyone's interested You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

QUOTE (PosterBoy @ Apr 6 2014, 10:56 AM) What was your technique used for making up the song titles? With most of them, I had an idea of a subject matter that I was influenced by whilst I was writing them. Usually I think of a concept and write around that. Even a word can be enough to set me off !

Reckoning was similar to feared in that it was pretty much you doing the writing/playing and everything yes?

Reckoning was similar to feared in that it was pretty much you doing the writing/playing and everything yes? Yeah I don't blame him.. if you're the main creative force behind something then it makes sense to either make it obvious that it's your project or just go solo. Yeah, I wanted The Reckoning to be a band of like minded comrades but it's incredibly difficult to do as finding the right chemistry with people who have the same goals is ridiculously rare. So I evolved into a D.I.Y. approach because I could do what I wanted and had only to please myself You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

Let me say that the phrase "Instrumental Megadeth album" really attracted me! I'm in a very Megadeth period, listening to a lot of their older stuff but also Cryptic Writings era.

Now I need to rethink some phrases to make sure they keep the melody flow and some more dynamics + to make it all have sense as a full album...You know the feeling it's all one, common story. You're album teaser sound ass kicking. It really brings up some good memories - tribute to metal classics. I think many people will like it Congrats!
