Anyone know if/when this guitar compilation is released? I wanna hear Nerd Alert. :)

from the HD site
"He also recorded a guitar track on an upcoming compilation album from Magna Carta Records. The title of the track is Nerd Alert and it could be described as Devin's most impressive and challenging guitar work to date."

For some reason, I was taking a shower the other day and I randomly remembered hearing about "Nerd Alert." :shock: Any updates?

Hrm, that sounds really fun. I'd definitely buy that. Where is the initial info about, then?

You would have to seek any information from Magna Carta. We have no involvement after providing the material.

Thats all I could find on their site. No mention of Dev... I wonder if his stuff will be on Vol 2, then.

I think that maaaaybe the solos of this ended up as Spinning Backwards on the Terror Syndrome record. Just me speculating though!

It's on a cd called "Guitars That Ate My Brain"

The song is fucking amazing...it's like a right/left side of the brain concept..heavy and fast then to slow and melodic.
