Joe Stump - Lord of the Strings *Pre-Order

Release Date Friday 16th October 2026
All pre-orders will be dispatched/made ready for collection on that day.

If you like screaming guitars of Valhallic proportions, you are already acquainted with the Professor of Shred Joe Stump, a man who
likes his riffs to roar and his leads to flash like lightning. If ever there was a man to go to 11, it’s Stump…which is exactly what he’s
done with Lord of the Strings, his forthcoming rip-roaring steel-forged ride which is due to be released on Silver Lining Music on
October 16th, 2026. Stump doesn’t just lay down the speed (“Full Throttle”) or revisit the classic grounds of traditional melodic heavy
metal (“Playing with Fire”), on this 12-track instrumental opus, Stump takes the guitar into lyrical territory with the likes of “In the Hall of
the King” and “Eternity of Darkness” with his supremely detailed licks taking the lead narrative role. Stump also exercises moments of
poetic acoustic reflection on “Den of Vipers” and “Leipzig 1722”, but overall, Lord of the Strings is a belting, relentless beast, and (as
the man himself says) ‘a heavy metal guitar orgy’.

1. Full Throttle / 2. Hyperbolic / 3. Raise Your Glass / 4. Den of Vipers Intro / 5. Den of Vipers / 6. Playing with Fire / 7. In the Hall of the
