OVERVIEW:
Here's the 1st homonymous FRANKENSHRED album from 1997, back when the band was an instrumental trio. This is dark and heavy metal loaded with razor-sharp guitar solos, killer riffs, throbbing, gristly bass and pounding drums, reminiscent of CACOPHONY and YNGWIE MALMSTEEN, though it often has a more speed/thrash metal than neo-classical character. Long, captivating compositions go through various speeds and moods and can create images in your mind through their haunting atmosphere... just close your eyes and enter the twisted world of Dr. Frankenshred... There's no need for a vocalist here - the instruments tell the stories!

FOR FANS OF:
• Cacophony, Yngwie Malmsteen, David T. Chanstain/CJSS, Racer X, Paul Gilbert, Joe Stump...
