CACOPHONY was formed in 1986 by guitarists Marty Friedman and Jason Becker and signed to Shrapnel Records, . They released two studio albums 'Speed Metal Symphony' (1987) and 'Go Off!' (1988) and remained active until 1989.
 
CACOPHONY both albums showcase unique performances of highly technical playing, typical of the 1980s shred era, with songs featuring fast tempos, melodic solos, exotic neoclassical scales and dual guitar harmonizations. Several tracks were entirely instrumental, which prominently demonstrated Marty Friedman and Jason Becker's renowned technical skills.
 
'Go Off !' is their second and final studio album . Both Marty Friedman and Jason Becker released their own solo albums : 'Dragon's Kiss' and 'Perpetual Burn', respectively in 1988, before the release of 'Go Off!’. Marty Friedman later joined the thrash metal band Megadeth in 1990, remaining with them for nine years as well as releasing several more solo albums, while Jason Becker enjoyed a short stint in David Lee Roth's solo band from 1989 to 1991. Unfortunately, Jason Becker's time with Roth was abruptly cut short due to an onset of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, a degenerative disease that rendered him completely unable to play afterwards.
 
Having become a much sought after Legendary record, CACOPHONY 'Go Off !’ is now available in Digipack Cd and Vinyl with full liner notes !.
