Project Steiger's debut CD, Defiance, featuring guitarist Ken Steiger, offers eleven tracks of Instra-Metal (Instrumental/Metal) guaranteed to rip your head off. The players on this CD have credits linking them to the world's most worshipped bands and artists, such as Dream Theater, Yngwie Malmsteen, Steve Vai, KISS and Whitesnake. The magnetism of Project Steiger is a atmosphere of pulsating energy that immerses the soul and thrashes the psyche - the spirit of true instrumental guitar taken to a level which transcends space and time. Defiance features these fantastic guest artists: Derek Sherinian on keyboards (ex-Dream Theater, Yngwie Malmsteen, KISS, Alice Cooper, Billy Idol), Virgil Donati on drums (Steve Vai, Planet X), Tony Franklin on bass (Jimmy Page, The Firm, Marty Friedman, Blue Murder) and Gary Hoey, who pariticpates in a special guest lead guitar exchange with Steiger on "Persuasion" - a tribute to Santana.
