MONTE PITTMAN New Album The Power of Three Available Today on Metal Blade Records!



MONTE PITTMAN New Album The Power of Three Available Today on Metal Blade Records!
 
 
You may not yet know Monte by name, but you'll remember him well after giving The Power of Three a spin.
-FEARnet

The holy grail of riffage...
-Rock Revolt Magazine

Pittman combines old-school thrash, 1980's hard rock, classic rock, and modern groove (with elements of Pantera...), and tops it off with a vocal delivery reminiscent of Ozzy. Just when you are ready to call this album one thing, it tells you otherwise...
-Metal Observer


The Power of Three, the brand new album from award winning, chart topping guitarist, Monte Pittman is available today via Metal Blade Records. Pittman, along with band members Kane Ritchotte on drums and Max Whipple on bass, went to Copenhagen earlier this year to record the album with producer Flemming Rasmussen.

Monte Pittman's video for the song 'Before the Mourning Son' was premiered last week.   The clip was directed by Vince Edwards and showcases stellar performances from Monte and his bandmates drummer Kane Ritchotte and bassist Max Whipple. The video can be viewed HERE.

Monte will be taking part in a number of events, signings and appearances at this year's NAMM Show in Anaheim, CA.  A complete schedule is below:
