Ripple Music riff-mongers WAR CLOUD, who at this writing are
in the midst of a month or so of US tour dates, are stoked to
announce the addition of Jesse Serrano as the band's new lead guitarist.
"He's a very physical player," they explain. "Jesse will bend the neck and body of
his guitar and pull springs with his picking hand to make electrifying
sounds. His unconventional style makes
him a uniquely talented shredder who'll add new energy to War Cloud's sound
both live and in the studio."
The current tour culminates this month in California,
followed by a pair of April dates before the band enters Louder Studios in Grass Valley, CA in May
to track new album
State of Shock.
Says the band of the new material, "It crosses over
many genres of hard rock and heavy metal.
It's thrashing, chugging, and riffing, but also takes some lighter
approaches."
And, regarding State of Shock's overall theme, they say, "It
has a stronger tie to war-time mentality, combat, despondency, and triumph.
State Of Shock
is fast, driving rock and roll, but there are definitely some dark
undertones."
