Review of "Chalk"
|
By: Bob Nalbandian
nderground guitar-great Keith Miller recently released his second instrumental solo
record Chalk. Much like it's predecessor Groove Train (2003), and his previous band
Plex'd, Keith Miller continues with his trademark style intricate guitar-blazing
groove-metal with Chalk. Combining several classic metal guitar influences from
Michael Schenker to Marty Friedman (with a sound somewhat similar to Marty's early
solo work on Dragon's Kiss) Keith Miller jams very tasteful guitar licks atop
intricate King's X meets Metallica-type grooves. Keith has a great sense for timing
and rhythm and knows not to over-indulge giving the music a chance to breathe before
laying down his next soulful guitar lick. Songs such as the title track, "Grid
Lock," "Inner Turbulence," and "Rubber Room" prove that Keith Miller has what it
takes to contend with today's guitar greats.
