Release Date: May 27, 2014. At the end of the 20th century, few guitar maestros were as highly regarded as MARTY FRIEDMAN. He first gained fame with fellow guitar wizard Jason Becker in the influential band Cacophony and through his well - received solo debut 'Dragon's Kiss'. Then, he joined Megadeth and co - wrote and recorded the thrash classic 'Rust In Peace'. During his 10 - year stint with the iconic group, which sold over 10 million albums globally and got multiple Grammy nominations, the band reached new heights. FRIEDMAN's distinct sound became an essential part of heavy metal, still inspiring new metal fans today. FRIEDMAN says, 'I'm very proud of my work with Cacophony and Megadeth, but I've always looked forward. 'Inferno' is the album fans of my work with those two bands have long awaited. I've made it on my own wild terms.' 'Inferno' features collaborations with players influenced by FRIEDMAN, like Alexi Laiho (Children of Bodom), Revocation's guitar ace David Davidson, the flamenco/metal acoustic duo Rodrigo y Gabriela, and well - known rocker Danko Jones. Also, it includes FRIEDMAN's first songwriting collaboration with Jason Becker since their Cacophony days. It's arguably the most exciting part of FRIEDMAN's international journey, and he's thrilled to have fans worldwide on board.
