Ruler Of The Wasteland

Chastain offered up a unique brand of progressive metal, combining his over the top guitar playing with Leather’s unique vocal sound at a time when Shrapnel was enjoying success with then-new label mates and fellow guitar heroes Paul Gilbert, Vinnie Moore, and Tony MacAlpine.. There has been a resurgent interest in musician-oriented records and the early shred scene. The re mastered Ruler of The Wasteland is one of those seminal records that helped to shape the emerging progressive metal movement.
