\"\"<\/a>Instrumental melodic rock fans will be rejoicing this September as renowned guitarist Joe Matera unleashes his new album Creature Of Habit on the world. The Australian native has built up a fine body of work to date and this may well be his best yet.<\/p>\n

Following in the tradition of fellow instrumental artists such as Joe Satriani ,Matera has added a vocal track to the album as well as the eleven instrumental numbers (9 plus 3 bonus) on offer here. Adding a new dimension to his work, which fans will savour .<\/p>\n

‘Fallen Angel’ is one such highlight, acting as a perfect showcase for Joe’s vocal ability, alongside his instrumental\/guitar work. Other tracks include ‘Slide’, ‘Endless Summer’, Brave New World’ and ‘Outland’.<\/p>\n

Backing up Matera on Creature Of Habit are American drummer James Strickler ( Angelic Rage) handling drumming duties (as well as bass on several tracks), and Tony Dolan (Venom, MPire of Evil) on bass on three tracks and Rich Davenport on one.<\/p>\n

Matera is also joined by a few guests, The Angels\u2019 Rick Brewster, Smokie\u2019s Mick McConnell \u2013 both who appeared on Matera\u2019s 2011 EP Slave To The Fingers\u2019 which received glowing reviews across the globe, make a welcome return, again making a guest guitar solo contribution on one track a piece.(Brewster on \u2018No Way!\u2019 and McConnell on Outland) as well as Fred Mascherino (Taking Back Sunday, The Color Fred, Terrible Things) who contributes a stunning guitar solo on Endless Summer.<\/p>\n

A much admired artist and esteemed music journalist Matera is a man of many talents, COH easily highlights just how much his music means to him and how dedicated he is to producing the best album he can.<\/p>\n

COH is scheduled for release September, 2012 via W.A.R Productions.<\/p>\n
