"DUSHAN PETROSSI - This Belgian virtuoso is second to none today! Originally in a band called Magic Kingdom, his new album with side project Iron Mask is tremendous guitar work on many different layers. Speedy as it gets, menacing at times and clean as a can be, Dushan is extraordinary. The recent 2005 release Hordes Of The Brave is inspiring. The first track "Holy War", includes amazing tapping techniques, layers of heavy rhythms and great melody. Listed in the Neo-Classical Progressive metal category, this man is a genre-spanning maniac. He could step in and play lead for any band in the rock/metal world. His feel of fast yet searing demonic rhythms is so commanding I had chills for the entire album! His two albums with Magic Kingdom, Metallic Tragedy and The Arrival, are both great and include amazing axe work on tracks like "Child Of The Nile", and "The Fight". His songs are amazingly technical but also tremendously entertaining metal as well. He is the fastest symphonic clean note player since the great Yngwie. If you love great guitar, get online and buy any of his albums, and you'll see for yourself a modern day Malmsteen with a little bit more "heavy metal" feel to his playing!" Above quote from: "Hard Rock Haven - the best 25 guitarists in Rock/Metal".
