Rusty's Guest solos on New All Shall Perish
All Shall Perish, Awaken The Dreamers, Release date September 2008 Nuclear Blast Records
Rusty Cooley plays 2 guitar solos on the song “From So Far Away”
Here’s what All Shall Perish drummer Matt Kuykendall had to say about the track Rusty played on in an interview at www.metalhammer.de
From So Far Away
This song is a dream come true for our guitarist Chris Storey. He wanted to have his mentor Rusty Cooley do a guest-solo on the record and it just ended up being its own track because his solos were so mind-blowing. Chris had the main riff for a while and it just didn't fit in any other song because it was so doomy. I really liked using it for this track because it's one of those riffs that can be played over and over in the background while Rusty goes nuts over it! This is a true example of how much voice a guitar can have.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Jason Becker and Pro Tone Pedals team up to bring you the Perpetual Burn Distortion Pedal
Crossroads, TX – June 29, 2008 – Pro Tone Pedals is pleased to announce the newest member of the Pro Tone family- the legendary Jason Becker.
World renowned guitarist Jason Becker and cutting edge guitar effects manufacturer Pro Tone Pedals join forces to recreate the incendiary tones from Jason's genre defining album Perpetual Burn.
The dual channel, all analog design will emulate the gear that Jason used during the recording of the Perpetual Burn LP while adding extreme flexibility and tone sculpting options.
Channel 1 will consist of a modified version of the distortion pedal favored by Jason at the time.
Channel 2 will house an analog emulation of the two amplifiers Jason preferred to use melded into one circuit.
Top names in the world of modern shred guitar will be lending a hand in the testing and development of the Perpetual Burn Distortion as Jason was diagnosed in 1989 with Lou Gehrig's disease (ALS) and has since lost the ability to play the guitar.
Jason's father, Gary Becker, will be providing the artwork to create a stunning combination of image and sound.
