Description

Mind Over Matter

"Mind Over Matter" is George Bellas' second Shrapnel records release, and finds the guitarist perfecting his neo-classical approach, while evoking shades of Jason Becker in places. Bellas' latest effort leads the way for a new breed of neo-classical guitar players. With a solid resume and exceptional skill as a guitarist, George Bellas will amaze even the most accomplished musician. When listening to "Mind Over Matter", be prepared for an aural assault as Bellas shows why this shred monster is considered one of the fastest players around. - Guitar Nine Records

"All the tracks here are really fantastic, particularly "Airbone" and "Fast And Furious," which are a perfect example of what "neo–classical metal" means. It is fast, melodic, and makes you want to have more."
Open and Say
"This is an excellent disc that neo–classical metal fans should have. When listening to "Mind Over Matter," be prepared to be stunned, because this guy is one of the fastest guitar players around."
