With the release of his solo debut, Metalusion, guitarist Glen Drover, best known for his precision and power playing with head-banger stalwarts Megadeth and Eidolon, blends the technically demanding musicianship that typified the classic jazz-rock genre with the venom and attack of modern metal.

Assisting Drover with forging a perfect musical balance that is neither too brittle nor too inflexible is Canadian multi-instrumentalist and bassist Paul Yee (who co-engineered the record), drummer Chris Sutherland (Kim Mitchell), Sagas Jim Gilmour on keyboards and a number of special guests, including Nevermores power metal/prog metal guitarist Jeff Loomis, Opeths and Talismans ass-kicking axe man Fredrik uesson, veteran Steve Smyth of the Bay Areas rejuvenated Forbidden, Ohms guitar maven and erstwhile Megadeth genius Chris Poland and classical metal master Vinnie Moore of UFO.
