We’ve got melody, tapping, shredding and some cool camera shots! What more could be wanted from an ultimate metal guitar solo video?!

The track is taken from Andy’s forthcoming third album released in 2011. Also, keep your eyes peeled for Andy’s tour dates and festival appearances with Sacred Mother Tongue as well as a new album in 2011.

Monuments are an upcoming British band, pioneering the new wave of progressive metal, nicknamed ‘djent’. Born from the ashes of breaking UK band FellSilent, guitarist John Browne has developed their signature sound of low drop tunings, staccato rhythms and strong melody with a new group of amazing musicians and are definitely one to watch!

Currenty signed to Basick Records, you will see Monuments on the British ‘League of xtraordinary djentlemen’ tour alongside Periphery and Tesseract. They are also in the studio, currently completing their debut album.

Hey guys, this is number 2 of 2 new singles released today!

This was the main one I was releasing, but I thought that I might as well release two as people have been complaining about how little videos I’ve been uploading recently.

This song is called “The Unseen” and in D standard tuning as well. Simply because I like that tuning and can’t really be bothered changing it. I do want to add a bit of continuity to my music.

For the solo; people thought that I should add a bit of variation in my solos, so there you have it, I added variation. I think this solo was more of a demonstration of what I can actually do now, as I don’t think my videos are as up-to-date as I think they should be.

I’d actually been working on this song for a while now, I had the intro and main intro riffs as well as the ending part, but I had trouble filling in the blank section. I just played around and managed to fill that blank right in. This song was recorded the exact same way as “Obscurity” was, but I spent more time recording it as I like this one better.

Tabs are available in Guitar Pro format on this website!

This song is also available to buy on iTunes!

Hope you like it more than my current songs!

P.S. if it makes the video more entertaining, I wrote the lead chorus riff whilst watching an episode of Two And a Half Men!

BTW, if you guys want to add vocals to it, be my guest! It might add a completely different feel to the song, which is always interesting.

He watches my videos from time to time, so I figured slapping one up as a tribute to him, to metal up his day, was definitely worth while.
