Borislav Mitic returns with a majestic new album "The Absolute". The
virtuoso Shredmaster delivers his strongest musical statement as of yet
for Lion Music. The idea behind this concept album was to take the instrumental guitar format and give it a new dimension infusing it with pure uncompromising Metal attitude but with primary focus on song quality content. Playing wise Borislav takes the gloves off this time and brings into the musical arena a wide arsenal of dazzling guitar techniques. He unmercifully unleashes them throughout the album with blinding speed and precision while retaining a sense of melody, reason and phrasing intelligence that he is known for. Each out of the ten songs featured on the album explores a different aspect of Metal music taking the listener on a quest toward the essential passion that lies within all true artistic effort - the perfection of creative expression. Borislav draws inspiration from many players that walked the path of guitar greatness before him and summons these echoes of the past forging them into a stunning new styling all of his own. The Absolute is an album whose mission is to shine brightly as a new rising star in a constellation of legendary classic albums of the Metal virtuoso genre. ARTIST BACKGROUND Originally hailing from Serbia but now residing in Canada, Borislav first shot to widespread public attention with his self titled debut album on Shrapnel Records in 1999, which saw him gain the distinction of being the first Serbian artist to sign a deal with an American label. His debut album was welcomed by guitar fans and critics alike as a breath of fresh air on a music scene flooded with various “corporate quasi music” and established Borislav a cult status among the rock guitar community and led to endorsement deals with ESP guitars, Dean Markley strings, Maxon, Guyatone effects - once again becoming the first Serbian artist to achieve such a feat. This release was followed up by "Fantasy" and then after several years of self reflection and unrealised musical projects, along with some guest spots along with work in R&D for Maxon, Borislav put together his own recording studio. Now in 2009 Borislav decided that the time was right for a new aggressive and uncompromising Metal instrumental album that his fans have long been waiting for. Having shelved all his old musical works Borislav focused on writing, producing and engineering entirely new instrumental songs that have become arguably his best work yet - a concept album titled "The Absolute". One song from the new album titled "Hidden" has already been previewed on the ESP Guitars website for the few months as a "premiere" introduction to the album.
