Yep, you read it right - I will be firing out another album this coming Saturday! This one's a completely solo affair - I've done everything on it. The work that Andrea and myself do has a longer period of coming together so, in order to keep the flow and make room for more material, I want to put stuff out closer to writing it.
As a result, I've ended up on a writing spree... it's quite short compared to a "conventional album" - 6 songs clocking in at around 25 minutes but hell, Reign in Blood is only 28 mins approx and that's got more songs! I'm not sure that I'll go the Buckethead route and release an album a week - that's insane... but there may be more albums now, alongside the work that I do with the Italian Stallion.

Your rate is really impressive to say the least. It seems you just have all that music inside you that to has to get out!

Look forward to it.
I still reckon you should do some hard copies with nice booklets for us to peruse whilst listening  Cheers for the music mate

WOW!! You are really cranking them out!!!!! Your output rate is beyond prolific dude! All the tracks sound great and I like they all sound a bit different from each other. I am getting really tired of listening to albums where every song could be swapped for another and you'd never know, which is something Heavy music seems to be falling victim to recently! I like the last track in particular. Well done!

Brilliant Ben,
Gods Of The Sun reminds me of a Satch track but I can't quite think which one. Blues For Lucifer, nice change One Step Closer To Satan @ 1:18 I'm sure I can hear one of your lessons in there Only listened once but liking it already.

QUOTE (Ben Higgins @ Sep 13 2015, 09:43 AM) That's interesting.. to me, Gods of the Sun makes me think of George Lynch & Zeppelin. Re: the lesson.. quite possibly. I'm not aware of it but there could be a lick or chord change that you've heard elsewhere in my stuff. Had it on while washing my car this morning, looped it 4 times, it's brilliant, each time I had a different favourite One Step Closer To Satan from 1:18 to 1:50 reminds me of THIS albeit more dynamic and driven and altered and probably nothing like it at all knowing my ears  Thanks for the music mate. -------------------- SEE MY GMC CERTIFICATE “Success is not obtained overnight.

QUOTE (fzalfa @ Sep 13 2015, 09:19 AM) some track may be a bit longer, but it's a personal preference, it's not about overall quality !!! Hehe, I do it to make you want more, more, more!!

That's great to hear, Phil Ah, it's probably because of the constant 8th notes on the lead guitar in both cases QUOTE (bleez @ Sep 13 2015, 12:20 PM) HA! That made me chuckle as well It made my copy extra satany! Excellent - it can't all be about God can it? The Dark One needs attention too, otherwise he gets all stroppy.
