"Guitarizm", the phenomenal new studio disc from young, gifted guitar "prodigy" Randy McStine, features 13 trax (61 minutes) of mega-awesome, unbelievably killer, intense, powerful, mind-blowing instrumental heavy guitar "shred" that stands up to some of the most outstanding guitar music you've ever heard. "Guitarizm" is an incredible "TOTAL GUITAR" statement from an incredible guitarist. Randy McStine (named after Randy Rhoads) has been playing guitar since age five (5) and half of the "Guitarizm" disc was recorded when he was only twelve (12) years old (!!!)including a spellbinding "encore" version of "The Loner" which is worth the price of admission alone. Randy McStine is without a doubt one of the best young guitar players you have ever heard and his guitar playing & music is right up there with the best of them including the most seasoned accomplished players in the world. Despite his young age, (skeptics take note: it's not a gimmick) Randy McStine's incredible guitar playing includes all of the classic elements (technique with feel + substance = TOTAL GUITAR) that define classic guitarists, complete with an incredible sense of depth, maturity and authority that add up to make him a true legitimate guitar hero of the highest caliber. Not only is his guitar playing phenomenal beyond belief and way beyond his young age, on "Guitarizm" he has written & recorded powerful, stand-out, material that far surpasses and goes way beyond the norm of most instrumental guitar discs. "Guitarizm" is an incredible instrumental guitar "shred" disc that actually features strong memorable "songs" to back up his incredible, talented powerful guitar playing. "Guitarizm" is all about substance and style and not about "shred for the sake of shred", although there is more than enough insane over the top "shred factor" displayed on "Guitarizm" to satisfy even the most hard-core heavy guitar "shred" freaks out there in guitarland! Randy McStine is definitely the REAL deal when it comes down to REAL guitar music.
