What's New:
Alberto Rigoni Drops First Single + Video ‘Paradox’ Ft. Mike Terrana & Loida Liuzzi from Upcoming Album Nemesis Call!
The Italian bass maestro is back, and boy, does he know how to make a grand entrance. ALBERTO RIGONI, the multitalented bassist, composer, and producer (you’ve probably heard him with BAD As, Vivaldi Metal Project, and ex-Twinspirits, to name a few) just dropped a brand new single and video, “Paradox.” Released through Finnish Eclipse Music, this track is a glimpse into the magic of his upcoming album, Nemesis Call.
What’s the buzz all about? Well, for starters, Rigoni’s lined up the legendary drummer Mike Terrana (Rage, Axel Rudi Pell) and the sensational guitarist Loida Liuzzi to join him on this one. Together, they’ve crafted a mind-blowing fusion of instrumental progressive rock and metal, with a hint of fusion influences to keep you on your toes. The technical mastery? Unquestionable. The intensity? Through the roof. If you’re into guitarists like Guthrie Govan, Allan Holdsworth, or Frank Gambale, you're in for a treat with this one. The complex rhythms and fiery guitar work will have you headbanging in no time!
Oh, and that video? A total banger. It’s raw, gritty, and straight from the studio—like you’re watching the magic unfold right before your eyes.

Now, let’s talk about Nemesis Call. This upcoming album is no ordinary release. It’s a deep dive into the realms of instrumental metal, with touches of progressive and neoclassical elements that showcase Rigoni’s unparalleled creativity. With intricate compositions that somehow manage to stay accessible, this album promises a rollercoaster ride of emotions and technical brilliance. Expect a bit of everything: shredding guitars, thumping basslines, and melodies that tug at your heartstrings. Fans of Yngwie Malmsteen, Kiko Loureiro (Megadeth), Michael Romeo (Symphony X), and—of course—Guthrie Govan, you’re in for a treat.
Alberto Rigoni isn’t just another bassist. With 13 solo albums under his belt (spanning progressive rock, ambient, experimental, funk, and more), he’s one of Italy’s most dynamic musical forces. He’s worked with legends like Jordan Rudess (Dream Theater), Gavin Harrison (Porcupine Tree), and Göran Edman (ex-Yngwie Malmsteen), among many others. Rigoni continues to push boundaries, and Nemesis Call is set to be another bold step in his sonic evolution.
