Paul Gilbert - Silence Followed By A Deafening Roar

Legendary technical guitarist Paul Gilbert returns with his second instrumental solo album "Silence Followed By A Deafening Roar," the follow up to his 2006 epic "Get Out Of My Yard." Though an international release is planned sometime in the future, "Silence Followed By A Deafening Roar" is out first and out now in Japan!

This time Gilbert comes on more sentimental yet more aggressive than ever. "Silence Followed By A Deafening Roar" kicks off with the equal parts scorching and emotional title track before taking the listener on an eleven-song journey spanning romantic tracks like "I Cannot Tell a Lie," blister-inducing instrumental metal tracks like "The Gargoyle," and all points in between. The album also includes covers of "Suite Modale" by classical composer Ernest Bloch, "I Still Have That Other Girl" by Elvis Costello/Burt Bacharach, and even a splash of Bach.

Joining Gilbert this time are "Get Out Of My Yard" supporting musicians Mike Szuter, Jeff Bowders, and wife Emi Gilbert. "Silence Followed By A Deafening Roar" came out January 23, 2008. Order now . . . and if your fingers still don't hurt yet, try out Paul Gilbert's guitar instructional DVD for his previous album "Get Out Of My Yard."
