Anyone Heard Monte Pittman? A lot of people should dig this here

A friend of mine posted this video on my facebook the other day. Most of the time I don't like what he shows me but this got my attention. I read a little bit about him. He was in Prong for a while and also with Madonna.

Wow... I wasn't expecting a lot from the intro, but that song is PRIME stuff!

Love the guitar tone in this song and......

00000000000 000000000000 000000000000 is pure win!!!

I'll pick this one up. I listened to a couple of tracks a few weeks ago and was very impressed.

YESSS!! That verse that goes "Ghost Riders in the sky" totally reminds me of Sabbath   

Yea I listened to those other songs on youtube from this album and his previous one and I instantly went to Amazon and picked up the new one.

His other albums are available on cdbaby. The album before this is kind of the same but I think the newer one is much better and the album or two before that are just all acoustic.

I heard about him from this review...

Sounded like something I'd enjoy, so I checked out a few songs on YouTube. Pretty decent sounding. If I saw his album cheap, I'd probably snag it.

Just bought "Power of Three" on CD/Amazon.com
Looking forward to it!!

I pretty much did the same thing. I had no idea who he was and didn't expect much, but was impressed. I'll grab it someday.

Yeah, I've heard of this guy. Remember that live video of Madonna playing bits of Pantera's "A New Level" in concert that everybody lost their sh*t over? This guy was the guitarist in her band at that time and supposedly he taught her to play that riff. Haha.

Sounds good.   

Gotta thank PRD (the OP)
Been spinning this one since it arrived and it's moved up to my favorite release of the year so far.
  
Nice!

It's a solid album. My only beef with it is it really slows down and gets kind of boring towards the middle of the album. Some killer riffs throughout!

Haha nice!

I've been listening to it a lot as well since I got it last week. Something I haven't done too often with newer releases.

I think it slows down towards the end a little. Does the last song need to be 13 minutes? It really could have been cut down but its not a bad song. Its my least favorite off the album but really there isn't a bad song on it.

I guess with me after hearing Dark Horse and Delusions, I was expecting too much. Those songs kicked so much ass, I had too high of expectations. This seems to happen too often!

i like this. going to have to get it now.

you won't be sorry it is a good album.

Keep spinning it gents, the riffs and hooks will soon dig their sharp little claws in and get you hooked.
There is some fluff in the middle, but even the fluff is nice and riffy.
I actually like All's Fair (the 13min track) b/c of the tempo changes. It goes all over the map but keeps coming together….works for me, but as always your results may vary, lol.
