“Arcade Metal” is a video game themed instrumental shred album, comprised of soaring melodic guitar virtuosity, to the backdrop of a nostalgic 80s chip-tune soundscape. The album’s extravagant musicianship is tied together with progressive elements throughout, and delivers an incredible layering of retro sound design and modern metal. “Arcade Metal” is a love letter to video game soundtracks of old, opening with legendary gaming composer, Yuzo Koshiro (“Streets of Rage”, “Sonic the Hedgehog”) on synths, before an onslaught of virtuoso guitar guests join the ranks to transport the listener to a golden age of guitar shred and video game nostalgia.
