Nevermore Guitarist Announces Solo Project; Enters The Studio
One of metal’s most talented shredders, Jeff Loomis, of Nevermore fame
will further prove his undeniable skills with his first solo project,
which is set for a fall release. The ambitious offering is an all
instrumental effort and is destined to shed some much deserved spotlight
on the genre’s most notable, yet unsung, guitar player.
Loomis states: “Hi everyone. I just wanted to give you all an update on
the solo project. I entered Robert Lang studios on March 22nd with
producer Neil Kernon (Nevermore) and drummer Mark Arrington. Mark
completed the drums for 10 tracks in about three and a half days. He did
some incredible drum work that I know will bring this record to a higher
level than I expected. Mark and I worked before back in 1993-94 when he
played half the songs on our debut CD. Being able to do this entire
recording with Neil is really amazing as well. We’ve done some great
work in the past, but being able to focus on an entire instrumental
record is going to be great. Rhythm guitars will be tracked next. I’ll
keep everyone informed on the progress as we track for the next month.”
