Guitar Virtuosity Unleashed: Atsushi Yokozeki’s ‘Get Away’ EP (18MX-1252)
Today’s entry spotlights the prodigious talent of Japanese guitar virtuoso Atsushi Yokozeki, focusing on his 1986 solo EP/mini-album, “Get Away,” released on Mandrake Root Records with the catalog number 18MX-1252.
This 12-inch, 45 RPM vinyl arrived during the height of the 80s Japanese heavy metal boom and the era of the guitar hero. Yokozeki, already known for his work in bands like Bronxx, used this release to fully showcase his formidable technical abilities.
“Get Away” is primarily an instrumental showcase of high-speed, technically demanding heavy metal and neoclassical shred guitar. Listeners are treated to Yokozeki’s blazing solos, intricate riffing, and mastery of advanced guitar techniques. While there might be vocal tracks, the undeniable focus is on the guitar pyrotechnics. Mandrake Root Records, known for supporting the underground scene, provided a perfect platform for this kind of focused instrumental release.
18MX-1252 is an essential item for fans of shred guitar and Japanese heavy metal history. It captures one of the scene’s most respected guitarists delivering a pure, high-octane display of skill and speed, solidifying his reputation as a major talent during the genre’s golden age.
