Since the glorious ’80s, guitarist Chris Impellitteri is well known for his technical skill, as well as being an extremely melodic and proficient songwriter. Despite his band IMPELLITTERI being a full American metal outfit, the Impellitteri catalog has been hard to pin down for Western fans, with many fans having to buy expensive import copies direct from Japan, where Chris enjoys a huge following.
This will change with Global Rock Records officially licensing the full Impellitteri catalog between the years 1987 and 2010. In celebration of this occasion, the label is releasing “Wake The Beast; The Impellitteri Anthology“, a remastered 3 CD set that encompasses the Impellitteri story from 1987-2010.
Every song here selected by Chris himself as to what he feels are the highlights from some 12 different releases. Wether it’s fan favourite Rob Rock on vocals or the legendary Graham Bonnet behind the mic, one thing can be sure, the intensity never let’s up.
This is the first ever Impellitteri career spanning compilation released worldwide, featuring not only the well known album tracks, but rare Japan released only bonus songs, B-sides and more.
