ALL SHALL PERISH Guitarist Partners With GUITAR WORLD For Instructional Video Lesson Series

August 17, 2010

ALL SHALL PERISH's new guitarist and Berklee College of Music graduate, Francesco Artusato, has partnered up with Guitar World magazine to present an in-depth instructional video lesson series breaking down how to play some of the most intricate parts from his all-instrumental solo endeavor entitled "Chaos And The Primordial". The disc is described as "an all-out technical shred fest featuring 10 truly diverse tracks that take the listener on an all-encompassing musical journey."

Commented Artusato: "In this first lesson I'm going to show a few examples from three different songs from my new solo album. The tracks are 'Quantum Tunneling', 'Layers of Corrosion' and 'The Metamorphosis'. I'm playing the examples first at normal speed and then slowed down with an explanation of what I am doing.

"I want to thank Guitar World for hosting these lessons as it's a true honor and privilege to be on this site."

ALL SHALL PERISH recently parted ways with original drummer Matt Kuykendall and replaced him with Adam Pierce. The group stated at the time, "It's always tough to part ways with a longtime member and friend, but it was absolutely necessary in order to maintain forward progress."

ALL SHALL PERISH's most recent lead guitarist, Jason Richardson, left the band and joined BORN OF OSIRIS. He has since been replaced by Artusato.

"Awaken The Dreamers", the latest CD from ALL SHALL PERISH, was released on vinyl for the first time on March 16 via Pure Noise. An extremely limited pressing, it is available in two eye-striking patterns; 300 copies are clear with red splatter and 600 are half black/half red, literally split in half between the two colors.

METALLICA's Kirk Hammett named "Awaken The Dreamers" as one of his 25 favorite albums of the past decade in an issue of Rolling Stone magazine.

"Awaken The Dreamers" sold around 5,000 copies in the United States in its first week of release to enter The Billboard 200 chart at position No. 126. The follow-up to "The Price of Existence" was recorded once again at Castle Ultimate Studios in Oakland with producer Zack Ohren.
