Paul Gilbert and Freddie Nelson – New CD, titled United States – OUT NOW

October 6, 2008 by metalichicka

Title says it all, folks. Paul Gilbert has released a new CD! It’s supposed to sound like a cross between Queen and Mr. Big. This is ten tracks of high-energy, straight-up rock and roll. Paul’s playing guitar, of course, so I’m sure there’s some insane riffage in there. Freddie Nelson is handling the vocal duties. It’s sure to be a super album, so buy it as soon as you can.

This album has finally been released worldwide. The wait is over. :)

This CD has been getting rave reviews from all over the globe, especially in Japan where the fans have finally had a chance to see the songs performed live. This album is available for purchase through Mascot Records in the USA (with free shipping!). You can also purchase the CD through CDJapan as an import, by going to the Paul Gilbert Merchandise page of this site and following the link.

Check the Album Reviews section of my blog if you want to hear about this new CD THAT’S SURE TO MELT OUR FACES OFF. :)
