Awesome Album of the Week.
"If youâre into the fusion of metal with traditional Japanese music (and who isnât?), pick up Dragon String Attack by God of Shamisen. Shamisen master and Estradasphere member Kevin Kmetz leads the group with his acrobatic finger work on the fretless Japanese instrument, infusing said sounds with any other genre that feels appropriate (reggae, Gypsy, jam rock, funk). The shredding riffs of guitarist Karl Schnaitter and the detonating beats of fellow Estradasphere cohort Lee Smith also propel the band, which you know will be good given that two of Kmetzâs listed influences are ultra-heavy death metallers Cryptopsy and classical legend J.S. Bach."
