FIREWIND/OZZY OSBOURNE Guitarist Shows Off New Tattoo

November 28, 2012

FIREWIND/OZZY OSBOURNE guitarist Gus G. (real name: Kostas Karamitroudis) has posted a couple of photos of his new tattoo, which was done by tattoo artist Theo from the Greek metal band DESCENDING. Gus states, "[I] hadn't done a tattoo in five years [and] forgot how much it fucking hurts!"

According to Rock Overdose, guitarist Gus has begun collecting ideas and recording demos for his first solo album, to be released sometime in 2013. The CD will feature instrumental tracks as well as songs with guest singers.

On the FIREWIND front, Gus revealed a live album will be made available from the band's current tour as a way to celebrate the group's tenth anniversary. In addition, there will be various reissues of bonus material in 2013 as well as a possible box-set release, the details of which will be announced at a later date.

FIREWIND's new album, "Few Against Many", entered the official chart in Greece at No. 42 and in Germany at No. 90. Released in Europe on May 21 via Century Media Records and in North America on May 22 through DisManic, Inc. via eOne Distribution, the CD was mixed by Jason Suecof and Eyal Levi at Audiohammer Studios (TRIVIUM, ALL THAT REMAINS, DEATH ANGEL) in Sanford, Florida.
