Gus G. - New Album Details Unveiled


After announcing that he joined the AFM Records roster, Gus G. now unveils the details of his upcoming new studio album. The guitarist is set to release his new album, titled Fearless, on April 20th. Fearless is the successor to 2015's Brand New Revolution and marks the Firewind mastermind's first release since exiting Ozzy Osbourne's band in 2017. On this new album, Gus joins forces with vocalist/bassist Dennis Ward (Pink Cream 69/Unisonic) and drummer Will Hunt (Evanescence, Black Label Society).

"Dennis and I have collaborated very closely for a number years, he produced the current Firewind album Immortals, among other things. We're on the same musical wavelength and simply continued our cooperation after the Firewind production," Gus describes his relationship with the multitalented German-American. "I sent him demos of and ideas for my new songs and once we had enough material and started to think about vocalists, Dennis suggested recording the album as a trio. A lot of people don't realise that Dennis is not only a brilliant songwriter, bassist and producer but also an excellent singer. I immediately liked his suggestion because this would be very different from everything else I've done before."

It was only a short step from the enlistment of drummer Will Hunt. Gus: "Will was at the very top of my wish list. Fate smiled on me because we played at the Frankfurt music fair 2017 during my tour with Steve Stevens, and Will stayed at the same hotel. So I approached him, we talked for a while and he agreed. Last August he came to the studio and recorded the drum parts for the whole album within two and a half days. A real pro with a great groove and an awesome punch."
