Fusion with raw, 8-string metal guitars, featuring ex. Cynic/Obscura, Dream Theater/Planet X, Allan Holdsworth band & Special Providence members. NEW ALBUM IS COMING.
In 2025, I’m working on my 4th solo album called „PLAN(e)T-BASED”. Musically, its concept is different from the previous one. While the Global Warning album was a mixture of electronic music genres (like drum and bass) and fusion, the new one will be prog/fusion music with a detuned 8-string thrash/death metal guitar sound. Featuring Special Providence, Sear Bliss & Rivers Ablaze guitarist, Marton Kertesz, Marius Pop on guitar, Attila Kovacs, guitarist (ex. Sear Bliss, Superbutt, currently plays in Bong-Ra & The Answer Lies in The Black Void bands), bassists: Anthony Crawford, Peter Erdei, Roland Racz, Peter Papesch and Robin Zielhorst (ex. Cynic, Exivious, currently plays in Obscura). The new album has its special guest again: Planet X’s musician, Derek Sherinian, on keyboards. Expected release date: end of 2026.
My 3rd studio album, „Global Warning” was released in 2022, featuring numerous great musicians: Derek Sherinian-keyboards (ex. Dream Theater, KISS, Alice Cooper, Black Country Communion, Whitesnake, etc.), Anthony Crawford – bass guitar (Witherfall, Chon, Justin Timberlake, Erykah Badu, Virgil Donati band, etc.), Marius Pop – guitar, Mike Gotthard – guitar, Zsolt Kaltenecker – keyboards (Special Providence), two members of Anima Sound System (Szabolcs Prieger & Tibba Kovats) and further great bass guitar players: Peter Erdei, Peter Papesch, Martin Gudics.
Contains 12 songs and 2 bonus tracks. Running time: 73 mins.
