JOE STUMP
THE DARK LORD RISES

Joe Stump is without a question one of the most intense and over the top guitarists on the planet. His maniacal guitar driven  releases are amazing displays of power and jaw dropping technical command. He was named by Guitar One Magazine as one of the ten fastest shredders of all time and by Guitarist as one of the top 20 shredders of all time. The American guitar hero  returns with his most diverse and complete solo effort to date with “The Dark Lord Rises”. Not only a killer shred record but also a great all around guitar driven release, blending neo-­‐classical speed metal, European influenced shred and old school hard rock into a great combination of playing and tracks that will appeal to a wide range of guitar enthusiasts and metal fans worldwide. Great melodies, killer riffs and from the heart emotionally drenched playing are combined with all the insane shredding you’d expect making this
the most exciting record of Joe’s career. Proclaimed by many music experts as the ultimate guitar monster you’ll hear why words like Godlike, shred master, brilliant and many more have been used to describe the Shredlord’s unparalleled playing style.
