Metal Shock Finland (World Assault )

Yesterday, on October 25th, Italian talented bassist, composer and producer ALBERTO RIGONI (soloist, BAD As, Vivaldi Metal Project, ex-Twinspirits, etc.) released the second single ‘Rage of Olympus’ via Finnish Eclipse Music. This high-octane instrumental track is the first glimpse into his much-anticipated album “Nemesis Call”, which will be available worldwide on December 13, 2024, in Digipack CD and across all digital platforms.

‘Rage of Olympus’ is a dynamic fusion of progressive metal and neoclassical elements, showcasing the virtuosic talents of Thomas Polychuck on guitar. Polychuck, known for his collaborations with musical heavyweights such as Virgil Donati and Derek Sherinian, delivers a breathtaking solo performance. Complementing the guitar is the remarkable drumming of Sajan, a young prodigy from India whose talent was discovered by Rigoni through Instagram.

Accompanying the release of ‘Rage of Olympus’ is a visually striking music video, which will be available next week at https://www.youtube.com/@albertorigonibassist/featured
