George Lynch - The making of 'Guitars at the End of the World'

Προσωπικός - solo δίσκος είναι το νέο βήμα στην ("πλούσια" ποσοτικά και ποιοτικά) καριέρα του George Lynch. Το album είναι ορχηστρικό (instrumental), τιτλοφορείται "Guitars at The End of the World" και κυκλοφόρησε προ ημερών.

Για τον κιθαρίστα George Lynch δεν (νομίζω ότι) χρειάζονται ιδιαίτερες συστάσεις. Είναι ενεργός από το δεύτερο μισό της δεκαετίας του εβδομήντα, ενώ έγινε γνωστός στον κόσμο κυρίως από την παρουσία του στους Dokken...

Αξίζει να σημειωθεί ότι ο George Lynch θα έχει και δισκογραφική συνέχεια μέσα στο φθινόπωρο, καθώς βρίσκεται προ των πυλών και το νέο album των Lynch Mob υπό τον τίτλο "Babylon" που θα κυκλοφορήσει στα μέσα Νοεμβρίου...

Δελτίο τύπου: «The album is the highly anticipated follow up to his 2021 opus “Seamless”, which fans of the shred-master embraced with open arms. Guitars at The End of the World features pro drumming legend Curt “Kirkee B.” Bisquera, who has worked with such greats as Elton John, Mick Jagger and Tom Petty, and also features renowned bassist Tony Franklin, who is known for his work with The Firm, Jimmy Page and Kenny Wayne Sheperd.

Also appearing is Lynch Mob drummer Jimmy D’Anda on the track “The Crucible". Regarding George’s approach to instrumental albums, the virtuoso states, “I always focus on creating guitar-driven music that delivers something outside the realm of what most people would expect, coming from a semi-redeemed 80’s hair shredder.

I want my instrumental records to be challenging, but not exhausting; personal, without being belligerently self-indulgent, include a fair amount of guitar histrionics, and pay tribute to the masters without making it sound like I’m competing to be the end-all summation of all guitar legacies that preceded me. I also wanted the underlying music to be more than vehicles for solos, I want the compositions to stand on their own”, explains Lynch.

Fueled with driving guitar tracks like “Psycho Beta” and “The Crucible”, to the haunting outro of album closer “Contraflow”, it is clear there is no slowing down George’s creativity and Guitars at The End of the World is sure to be a fan favorite!»
