SHARDIK - Cruelty Bacchanal
The second release from Matt Hollenberg’s newest musical unit Shardik is a biting critique of political corruption and hypocrisy in the modern era. Years in the mak-ing, the music is replete with searing solos, harmonic daring, soaring lyricism, and a complex formal logic. Traversing avant-garde classical, dissonant math metal, free jazz, world music and more, “Cruelty Bacchanal” is Matt’s best project to date. Performed with stunning intensity and astonishing virtuosity this is essential new music from a guitar master that demands your attention. Essential!
