CLOSURE
DEBUT · 2009
SCHECTER HELLRAISER C-1
THE BAND
Asking Alexandria formed in York, England and broke through with their 2009 debut Stand Up and Scream — the record “Closure” is from. With Danny Worsnop up front, they became one of the defining metalcore bands of the era.
THE GUITARISTS
The riff engine behind the whole band — the blueprint for sitting heavy rhythm right next to melody without losing either.
Tight low end, enough output to push the heavy parts, clear enough that the melodic parts still speak. Built for this.
WHAT IT TAKES TO PLAY IT
“Closure” is a study in control — ride heavy palm-muted riffing, then open up for the melodic parts without the dynamics collapsing. After a year inside the theory (that story’s here) it finally feels like a conversation, not a copy.
California metal guitarist — open for FILL-IN & SESSION work, plus the wedding-band project. If your band needs someone who shows up knowing the set, let’s talk.
