“Opening with a barrage of rapid alternate picking… weaving in extended chord voicings and exotic scales… creating a dark, cinematic atmosphere that mirrors its title.”
– Matt Miller on “Descent into Violence”
The single is available for streaming now:
A Monumental Leap: From Solo Virtuoso to Full-Band Assault
“Fiber Tormentum” marks a pivotal moment in Miller’s musical evolution — transitioning from instrumental-only albums to a full-band effort. Backed by Jordan Kelso (drums/synth) , Justice Robinett (bass) , and Biko Wright (vocals) , the album delivers a cohesive and theatrical blend of technical precision and emotive storytelling.
Miller states:
“This is the most ambitious project yet — clean vocals, intricate guitars, and a theatrical sound. We’re pushing boundaries while maintaining a human touch.”
Conceptually, Fiber Tormentum ventures deep into speculative sci-fi territory, exploring an extraterrestrial manipulation of human DNA — a dystopian vision amplified by the haunting cover art from the late Joshua Nassaru Ward of Voraath .
For Fans Of: Necrophagist, Spawn of Possession, Rivers of Nihil, Devin Townsend, Obscura, DragonForce, Racer X
