Product Description
Contents Introduction Jason Richardson is a highly skilled guitarist who has garnered enthusiastic support from young generations around the world for his overwhelming technique and spectacular, thrilling guitar playing. This is his second solo album, and he is also active as the successor to Oli Herbert, the guitarist of All That Remains who passed away in 2018! [Commentary Included] Five years after his previous work, which featured a magnificent sound reminiscent of a movie soundtrack, he has teamed up again with the strongest drummer, Luke Holland, to create an instrumental album that overwhelms listeners with his unparalleled technique and phrasing sense. Born on July 7, 1991, in Manassas, Virginia, USA, Jason was accepted into Berklee College of Music on a partial scholarship, but in his senior year of high school, at the age of 17, he dropped out of school to accompany the metal band All Shall Perish on their world tour. After performing with popular deathcore bands Born of Osiris and Chelsea Grin, he launched his solo career in 2015. On July 26, 2016, he released his solo debut album, "I". The album features many amazing musicians, including Luke Holland, the former drummer of The Word Alive, who is truly one of the strongest in the world, as well as guest guitarists Rick Graham and Nick Johnston, Mark Holcomb of Periphery (who was recently nominated for a Grammy), Jackie Vincent of Cry Venom, and Jeff Loomis of Arch Enemy. Spencer Sotelo of Periphery and Lucas Magyar of Veil of Maya also provide vocal performances on two tracks. In 2017, Jason Richardson accompanied the popular progressive guitar band Polyphia on their tour of Japan, performing their first shows in Tokyo and Osaka. During this tour, he thrilled fans by performing Polyphia's famous song "Aviator," which featured a guest solo by Jason Richardson. On November 9, 2018, he joined All That Remains on tour, replacing the late Ollie Herbert. Having been a fan of All That Remains since high school, he subsequently joined the band as an official member. In 2019, The Ernie Ball Music Man released a signature guitar in collaboration with him, the Jason Richardson Cutlass Guitar, which became a hot topic among guitar fans in Japan. And in 2022, his long-awaited second solo album was finally completed. Just like his previous work, his ultimate partner Luke Holland fully participates, and Polyphia guitarist Tim Henson makes a guest appearance on one track. This new album was released worldwide on July 15, 2022. [Track Listing] 1. TENDINITIS / 2. ISHIMURA / 3. POLYRHYTHMIC PUG / 4. POOMBACHU / 5. SPARROW 6. THRENODY / 7. BYRONIUS OF THE 4TH ORDER / 8.
