Marc Rizzo "The Ultimate Devotion"

After nearly three years of touring throughout the East Coast and then across the entire US doing small club shows with his band, promoting his unique mind bending style and improving his chops, Soulfly guitarist Marc Rizzo went back into the studio to record the follow-up to his solo debut. "The Ultimate Devotion" is aptly titled as it reveals Rizzo to have improved his already mind boggling writing and performance chops. As young guitarists of this skill and intensity are in short supply, Rizzo, armed with an arsenal of staggering guitar chops, has started a large groundswell within the guitar community, and proves on "The Ultimate Devotion" why he stands out from the rest. Marc Rizzo, also a founding member of Il Nino, is a master musician with deep musical roots in metal shred, classical and flamenco guitar. "The Ultimate Devotion" is an outstanding follow up to "Colossal Myopia", his all instrumental guitarfest.
