Neo-Classical Hard Rock Project AMORIELLO–launched by renown guitarist, educator, and author Tom Amoriello and featuring former members of Black Sabbath, Dio, Yngwie Malmsteen’s Rising Force, Ozzy Osbourne, Whitesnake, Quiet Riot, TNT, Loudness, Dokken, Impellitteri, and Cacophony–has released a teaser for their self-titled LP, a 12 inch vinyl due out December 2018 via H42 Records. The first single, “Battle Song” (a tribute to metal legend Ronnie James Dio), is slated to release on 9/28.
“AMORIELLO represents emotional songwriting with world class musicianship from metal legends. From power ballads to neo-classical shred instrumentals, it was so fulfilling to explore this range of music that I have admired over the years and has inspired me as a guitarist. I would like to thank all of the musicians involved on the project for bringing their “A” Game!!!. It was an honor. Hope to see you live in 2019!”
