ABYSMAL DAWN are out on tour across North America, alongside KATAKLYSM and ALL SHALL PERISH,  supporting their new release 'Leveling the Plane of Existence' on Relapse Records.

Praised by critics, a tour-de-force of modern death metal mastery, 'Leveling' is a crushing, front-to-back display of brutality, speed, and virtuosity. Massive, memorable riffs, tasteful solos, skillfuly voiced through frontman Charles Elliot's Sustainer-loaded Revolver guitars, don't miss them live.

Best known as the founder and leader of King Crimson, Robert Fripp developed a tape-looping technique eventually dubbed “Frippertronics,” which he used when he worked with Brian Eno in the mid 1970’s. Frippertronics has become Soundscapes, where he creates loops in real time, creating multiple layers, and then improvises solos on top of all of it. The Fernandes Sustainer plays a key part in this, as it provides orchestrated string-like sustain which with Robert's effect units creates astonishing textures. Sustainer can also be heard in his soloing, extending single notes and chords. Fripp set up in the secular cathedral of the World Financial Center for a two-day residency in early December of 2010 and part of a live performance recorded on December 4, along with John Schaefer’s interview, is can be heard at the WNYC New Sounds site.

Anders Nyström, also known as Blakkheim, cofounder of Swedish metal band KATATONIA, is the newest member of the Fernandes family of artists. Anders is also involved in the songwriting, backing vocals, keyboards, programming, arrangements, art direction and production of KATATONIA. In addition to his work with KATATONIA, Anders used to be a member of metal band BEWITCHED from 1995 - 1997, is still together with Jonas Renkse on the death metal project BLOODBATH, and has released four albums as the one man black metal act DIABOLICAL MASQUERADE (1993 - 2004). Check out Anders playing his Sustainer-equipped Ravelle guitar in upcoming shows.

"Together with distortion and delay the Fernandes Sustainer is simply the most brilliant invention ever made in the guitar world! I can now make my defined musical signature whisper, sing, weep or squeal by my own fingers. I'm a Sustainer addict for life!!!" - Anders Nyström
