  • Any love for david t chastain?

    i been listening to his album 'The voice of the cult' and i have to say i really like his style of heavy shred metal...particularly 'child of evermore' with its slayer-esque riffery

    Yeah, I have quite a few cds by him..and his friend Michael Harris..

    I like their neo-classical metal band Zannister cds..not many care for it...but I think it's good!!

        I've got several of his discs - some Chastain (the band), the Harris/Chastain live disc and a few of his solo discs. I wish like heck he'd put "Ruler of the Wasteland" on CD again. I'd love to have that on disc (instead of cassette) but I can't stomach the absurd prices when I see a copy on eBay.

          I have one of his CDs - In An Outrage. I like it. The female vocalist is cool too.

            I think Elegant Seduction is his best cd.

              I got most of his stuff..I don't really know which one is his "best", that's subjective anywhoo..there is several that have their moments..

              I guess I prefer his Zannister stuff now..the older stuff is cool, but some is showing it's age..I guess the Zannister stuff is a bit "fresh" IMO.

              That chick on "In an outrage" sounds alot like his old singer "leather" to me.

                  I have Instrumental Variations on LP. It was never really one of my favorites, though the guy is undoubtedly a great player.

                    Chastain was a major influence nearly twenty years ago. Phenominal musician.

                    ..and his friend Michael Harris..

                    Around the same time I was lucky enough to see Arch Rival play in a small club in Ohio. Along with their material, they (flawlessly) covered four Malmsteen tunes from Rising Force. Michael Harris is an incredible guitarist as well as my biggest inspiration. Nice to see his name mentioned.

                      Arch Rival is killer..I got all three releases..Third degree Burn/Wake up your mind/In the face of danger..all three very good releases that I recomened..for fans of good old school metal/rock/shred music ...without any of the hardcore vox/bash beat/harsh stuff..just great guitar oriented music..anyone of David Chastain should truly appreciate this.

                        I'm a huge fan of David Chastain! I gotta say that the second Zanister album is pretty weak though.

                        Thus far I've got all his instrumental relases and pretty much everything else he's played on or produced. How can you not love the man that gave the world Firewind and Kenziner?

                        He needs to gt a lot more respect in the metal community ... him and Michael Harris, that live CD is fucking sick!
