Guthrie Govan has many many Youtube demos outside of the band. He's also played with many many musicians over the years

One of my faves is his demo on a Vigier fretless.

Guthrie is an absolutely incredible guitarist. There is a video of him playing "Wonderful Slippery Thing" with Mohini Dey and she is fantastic. I guess the "Mohini can't groove / plays too fast / has no soul" brigade missed this one. 

I love her tone in this video too, so much punch and clarity and a huge amount of bottom end. You can really feel how loud the bass was in the venue on that night, that is proper bass that you feel through your whole body.

I went to school with Guthrie - albeit a year or two below him. He was insanely talented as a youngster and seemingly has just kept on studying and getting better. He won a competition in Guitarist magazine as a teenager, and at some point afterwards was given a job there. Love his videos as well - a completely natural teacher.

Beller was also involved in the recent Godzilla: King of The Monsters movie. I haven’t seen it, but from I understand, the music could be the high point 😬

Depends if you're a lifelong Kaiju fan or not. Saw it last week, and (channeling my 7 year-old self) it was the best film I've ever seen, by some margin.

Can't say I noticed the music overtly, but it did proper fan-service by incorporating signature themes of the various creatures. End title music was an incredibly bombastic cover of Blue Oyster Cult's Godzilla, with vocals by Serj Tankian - don't know if Brian B was involved in that but wouldn't be surprised.
