Post Description
Combining jaw-dropping technique with a fertile imagination and a playful sense of humor, the Austrian six-string phenom has concocted an audaciously brilliant manifesto in "[sic]". Imagine a composite of Allan Holdsworth"s stunning legato chops and advanced harmonic language with Mike Keneally"s exacting virtuosity and Frank Zappa"s fiercely uncompromising "difficult music" and you"re getting close to where this visionary new talent is currently operating. He is perhaps the only guitarist on the planet who could cut the impossible charts of Zappa"s Jazz From Hell and simultaneously breathe life into them.

The way Alex composed around my improvisations is more beautiful than I could have imagined! I"m honoured to be a part of this masterpiece."
