Matt Miller, tech‑death guitarist, composer, and relentless riff machine, is kicking off the 3 Shredders Tour, a lead‑guitar showcase uniting shred titan Rene Benton and explosive guitar virtuoso Manuel. Think the spirit of the G3 Tour, but cranked into the extreme‑metal realm: faster, heavier, and unapologetically intense.

The tour brings together three boundary‑pushing players at the forefront of modern metal. Joining Rene Benton on select dates is legendary bassist Kelly Conlon, known for his work on Death’s iconic “Symbolic” album and the tours that followed. His involvement injects a rare dose of metal history into an already stacked lineup.

Adding even more star power, audiences will have the chance to meet Biko Wright, Matt Miller’s vocalist and a fan‑favorite survivalist from History Channel’s Alone and Discovery’s Expedition Bigfoot. His crossover appeal continues to draw both metal fans and viewers of his television work.
​
​“We are stoked to be hitting the road this April with Manuel and Rene Benton, it’s going to be a shred guitar extravaganza! Also, get the chance to meet survival expert Biko Wright from the TV shows Alone and Expedition Bigfoot,” adds Miller.
​
With three world‑class musicians on one bill, the 3 Shredders Tour promises nights of blistering solos, technical mastery, and genre‑bending creativity.

The 3 Shredders Tour w/ Matt Miller, Rene Benton, Manuel, Biko Wright​
April 10 – Reno’s Chop Shop – Dallas, TX
April 11 – Hi-Tone – Memphis, TN
April 12 – SK8 Bar – Kansas City, MO
April 13 – Reggie’s Music Joint – Chicago, IL
April 15 – Driftwood Charbar – Minneapolis, MN

April 17 – Alley Cat – Iowa City, IA
April 18 – Gray’s Keg – Lincoln, NE
April 19 – Rockwell Event Center – Amarillo, TX

Matt Miller’s September 2025 release, “Fiber Tormentum” on Exitus Stratagem Records, marks a major creative shift, evolving from an instrumental concept into a full band effort with vocalist Biko Wright, drummer Jordan Kelso, and bassist Justice Robinett.

“I knew it needed vocals and the input of other people to make it come to life,” says Miller.

The album blends technical death metal, power metal, and progressive elements into his heaviest and most melodic work yet, built around a loose sci‑fi concept of an alien species rewriting human DNA, an idea shaped by post‑COVID anxieties.
​
The late Joshua Nassaru Ward (Voraath) created the album’s striking artwork, depicting the agony of forced transformation, echoing the record’s themes of tension and invasion. Miller’s journey to this point includes launching his solo project in 2020, touring with Rings of Saturn and Possessed, and assembling a lineup with diverse musical backgrounds. Recording the album came with memorable moments from Wright tracking vocals between filming Expedition Bigfoot to the band getting banned from music stores for sampling high‑end instruments. Hidden somewhere on the record is Wright’s triumphant “One Take Willy” shout.
​
From his early 2017 EP to 2022’s “Monument of Velocity,” Miller has steadily pushed extreme music forward.

Recommended for fans of Necrophagist, Symphony X, Wintersun, The Faceless, and Death, “Fiber Momentum” (released Sept 12th) is available on all major platforms through Exitus Stratagem Records.

“All in all, it’s a fascinating song (Effectively Neutralized) — head-spinning and heart-palpitating but also a heavy-hitter and a conjurer of strange, sinister, and haunting visions. In other words, in the space of just five minutes it pulls off a lot of impressive feats. And the well-filmed and well-edited video for it is a perfect complement, in that it shows us how all these talented performers executed all the impressive accomplishments.” – NoCleanSinging

“Hell yeah. Holy moly canoli. Fiverr to Fiber Momentum, and that was the album. This song is Descent into Violence. Holy moly canoli, dude. Go support, Matt Miller. That was absolutely badass. Total shredding.” – Omar Rodriguez – The Metal Mixtape – YouTube Channel

“The songs on “Fiber Tormentum” are rather good, and make for very interesting listening sessions.” – Metal Temple
​
“”Fiber Tormentum” is a real killer and so refreshingly creative that you can’t help but toast this previously unknown genius in awe! Cheers! 9/10″ – PowerMetal.de

“Soaring, crushing, ferocious, emotive, and relentless, are words that strongly describe Decrepit Shed. The album has a lot to offer from various metal sub-genres and encompasses the best elements of technical guitar playing while still having well-written songs”. – Brave Words

“Monument of Velocity” initially had a different title and was not going to be a Matt Miller release and some of the songs were written with vocals in mind and were not going to be instrumental, however, it turned out to be the sixth of seven powerful albums in his discography. contains eight tracks full of technical and progressive metal eliciting feelings of suspense, and tension while being fun, melodic and brutally heavy. Miller’s melodic and relentless music has a wide range of influences and is recommended for fans of Jeff Loomis, Necrophagist, and Obscura.” – Rock’n’ Load

“Even though Miller’s music is instrumental, he likes to think of the guitar as a voice. Which in turn makes him ask what is the guitar saying? He is able to easily convey emotion, tone, and a story even without the use of vocals. Throughout his releases, his music has developed a more modern sound in both the music and the production. Musically the songs are more well written and a lot of the ideas he writes are being accurately represented. He is always trying to push himself as a musician and this is reflected in his discography. Influenced primarily by technical and progressive death metal with a dash of power metal and symphonic metal as well, Matt Miller’s music is recommended for fans of Obscura, Dragon Force, and Racer X” – Metal Sucks

“Mr. Miller can shred like his fingers are on fire” – Ever-Metal.com

“Matt shreds all over this album with guitar solos galore”. – Transcending the Mundane

“Soaring, crushing, ferocious, and emotive, Miller conveys a wide range of tones throughout his instrumental music. It is recommended for fans of Dragon Force, Racer X, and Jeff Loomis” – Metal-Rules

“For guitar enthusiasts, I guess it is a feast for the eyes and ears.” – Antichrist Magazine

“Hell yeah. Holy moly canoli. Fiverr to Fiber Momentum, and that was the album. This song is Descent into Violence. Holy moly canoli, dude. Go support, Matt Miller. That was absolutely badass. Total shredding. Jordan, also a homie of mine, your drums are incredible. The new singer, Bo, I love the harsh vocals in the clean. Total is it almost the cleans almost reminded me of Queensryche meets Cannibal Corpse. It’s pretty freaking sweet. And of course, Justice always lays down the heavy bass with the beautiful bass faces. But an absolutely incredible album….Matt Miller, you could find him everywhere. He’s an incredible guitar player, one of the best guitar players of our generation. Remember, this is Fiber Tormentum courtesy of Exitus Stratagem Records. So, a huge shout-out to them as well. Matt Miller has so many more songs. If you guys like this song (Descent into Violence), believe me, this guy is an absolute shred master. Not only does he do like a ton of his own originals, he does a ton of covers, and also he’s just a shred master of all sorts. Just exactly how they say, melodic, technical, and death. But I will definitely say the big thing that stands apart about this whole song is great structure, absolutely shredding on all levels, and the vocals are just 100% one-of-a-kind.

Technical death metal visionary Matt Miller has unveiled a new guitar playthrough video for “Maimed Paralyzed Dead,” one of the most harrowing and cinematic tracks from his latest full‑band album, “Fiber Tormentum,” released through Exitus Stratagem Records. The video captures Miller’s trademark blend of precision, intensity, and melodic ferocity, offering fans a close look at the technical prowess behind one of the album’s most monstrous compositions.

“Maimed Paralyzed Dead” occupies a pivotal place in the album’s overarching sci‑fi narrative, depicting the grotesque physical consequences of alien‑engineered DNA manipulation.

“Musically, it’s something out of a monster movie. Like a zombie crawling on the floor or lumbering toward its victim.” The playthrough highlights the track’s relentless rhythmic shifts, soaring leads, and crushing atmosphere, all of which have become defining elements of Miller’s evolving sound,” explains Miller.

The release of the “Maimed Paralyzed Dead” guitar playthrough marks another step in that progression, offering fans a visceral look into the technical and emotional core of “Fiber Tormentum.” With its blend of cinematic horror, technical mastery, and thematic depth, the track stands as a testament to Miller’s commitment to crafting music that is both overwhelming and unforgettable.

“Fiber Tormentum” represents a major turning point in Miller’s career. Originally conceived as an instrumental record, the album transformed once he realized the material demanded a broader emotional and narrative range. The addition of vocalist Biko Wright, drummer Jordan Kelso, and bassist Justice Robinett elevated the project into a fully realized band.

“I knew it needed to be a proper album with vocals and the input of other people to make it come to life. This album features the heaviest, most melodic, and most technical music in my catalog so far,” adds Miller.
​
The album blends technical death metal, power metal, progressive elements, and epic vocal hooks into a sound Miller describes as relentless, soaring, crushing, intense, and epic. Lyrically, “Fiber Tormentum” forms a loose concept album centered on an advanced alien civilization subtly reshaping human DNA to enslave humanity. The story draws influence from real‑world anxieties and the societal fallout of the COVID‑19 era, giving the record a thematic weight that matches its musical aggression.
​
The album’s artwork, created by the late Joshua Nassaru Ward (Voraath), visually captures the torment of the narrative. The central figure’s face contorts in agony as its DNA fibers are forcibly rewritten, echoing the album’s themes of transformation, invasion, and loss of autonomy. The title itself, Fiber Tormentum, references the sound a Roman ballista makes when its ropes tighten before firing, a metaphor for tension, destruction, and the inevitability of conflict.
​
Miller’s journey to this moment began in 2020, when he launched his solo project during the pandemic. After touring the United States with Rings of Saturn on the Cyber Shred Tour 2022, he assembled his current lineup and soon after embarked on a European tour supporting death metal pioneers Possessed. Each member brings a diverse musical background, ranging from metal and jazz to folk and bluegrass, resulting in a dynamic and collaborative creative process.

“We strive to offer a show that grabs everyone’s attention. We play crushing technical music, but we want everyone to sing along and bang their heads,” says Miller.
​
The making of “Fiber Tormentum” was marked by its share of memorable moments. Vocalist Biko Wright tracked his parts between filming sessions for the Discovery Channel’s Expedition Bigfoot. The band became such regulars at a local Subway during recording that staff reserved a table for them every Tuesday and Thursday night. Their attempts to record samples using high‑end pianos and harps in music stores resulted in them being banned from multiple locations. And somewhere on the album, a hidden “One Take Willy” outburst, Biko’s triumphant shout after nailing a one‑take performance, awaits listeners with sharp ears.
​
Miller’s musical evolution has been steady and relentless. From his early instrumental EP in 2017 to the 2022 release of “Monument of Velocity” and his extensive catalog of covers and original material, he has consistently pushed the boundaries of extreme music. Now aligned with Extreme Management Group and backed by a full band of world‑class musicians, he continues to expand his reach and refine his sound.

Recommended for fans of Necrophagist, Symphony X, Wintersun, The Faceless, and Death, “Fiber Momentum” (released Sept 12th) is available on all major platforms through Exitus Stratagem Records.

“All in all, it’s a fascinating song (Effectively Neutralized) — head-spinning and heart-palpitating but also a heavy-hitter and a conjurer of strange, sinister, and haunting visions. In other words, in the space of just five minutes it pulls off a lot of impressive feats. And the well-filmed and well-edited video for it is a perfect complement, in that it shows us how all these talented performers executed all the impressive accomplishments.” – NoCleanSinging

“Hell yeah. Holy moly canoli. Fiverr to Fiber Momentum, and that was the album. This song is Descent into Violence. Holy moly canoli, dude. Go support, Matt Miller. That was absolutely badass. Total shredding. Jordan, also a homie of mine, your drums are incredible. The new singer, Bo, I love the harsh vocals in the clean. Total is it almost the cleans almost reminded me of Queensryche meets Cannibal Corpse. It’s pretty freaking sweet. And of course, Justice always lays down the heavy bass with the beautiful bass faces. But an absolutely incredible album….Matt Miller, you could find him everywhere. He’s an incredible guitar player, one of the best guitar players of our generation. Remember, this is Fiber Tormentum courtesy of Exitus Stratagem Records. So, a huge shout-out to them as well. Matt Miller has so many more songs. If you guys like this song (Descent into Violence), believe me, this guy is an absolute shred master. Not only does he do like a ton of his own originals, he does a ton of covers, and also he’s just a shred master of all sorts. Just exactly how they say, melodic, technical, and death. But I will definitely say the big thing that stands apart about this whole song is great structure, absolutely shredding on all levels, and the vocals are just 100% one-of-a-kind. And I totally enjoyed it. Guys, I love you guys from the bottom of my heart. This has been Matt Miller with his new song, Descent into Violence. Pick up the new album on September 12, Fiber Tormentum.” – Omar Rodriguez – The Metal Mixtape – YouTube Channel

“The songs on “Fiber Tormentum” are rather good, and make for very interesting listening sessions.” – Metal Temple
​
“”Fiber Tormentum” is a real killer and so refreshingly creative that you can’t help but toast this previously unknown genius in awe! Cheers! 9/10″ – PowerMetal.de

“Soaring, crushing, ferocious, emotive, and relentless, are words that strongly describe Decrepit Shed. The album has a lot to offer from various metal sub-genres and encompasses the best elements of technical guitar playing while still having well-written songs”. – Brave Words

“Monument of Velocity” initially had a different title and was not going to be a Matt Miller release and some of the songs were written with vocals in mind and were not going to be instrumental, however, it turned out to be the sixth of seven powerful albums in his discography. contains eight tracks full of technical and progressive metal eliciting feelings of suspense, and tension while being fun, melodic and brutally heavy. Miller’s melodic and relentless music has a wide range of influences and is recommended for fans of Jeff Loomis, Necrophagist, and Obscura.” – Rock’n’ Load

“Even though Miller’s music is instrumental, he likes to think of the guitar as a voice. Which in turn makes him ask what is the guitar saying? He is able to easily convey emotion, tone, and a story even without the use of vocals. Throughout his releases, his music has developed a more modern sound in both the music and the production. Musically the songs are more well written and a lot of the ideas he writes are being accurately represented. He is always trying to push himself as a musician and this is reflected in his discography. Influenced primarily by technical and progressive death metal with a dash of power metal and symphonic metal as well, Matt Miller’s music is recommended for fans of Obscura, Dragon Force, and Racer X” – Metal Sucks

0 Exitus Stratagem Records – MATT MILLER Drops a Holiday Metal Rendition of Bach!

MATT MILLER Drops a Holiday Metal Rendition of Bach!

Guitarist and composer Matt Miller is closing out the year with a spirited new holiday release that blends classical elegance with high‑energy metal flair. His latest track and accompanying video, “December, Joy of Man’s Suffering in the Holiday Spirit 2025,” offer a playful reinterpretation of a classic Bach composition, transformed into a modern, riff‑driven celebration of the season.
​
The video, filmed with a humorous, tongue‑in‑cheek approach, features festive characters and a warm holiday atmosphere. Miller and band emphasize that the visuals are created purely in good fun and in the spirit of the season, noting that they do not claim ownership of any characters portrayed.
​
​“This piece was all about having fun with something timeless. We wanted to take a Bach classic and give it a metal twist while keeping the holiday mood light, joyful, and a little mischievous,” says Miller. ​
​​
The track showcases Miller’s signature blend of technical precision, melodic creativity, and genre‑bending experimentation. By pairing baroque‑inspired lines with modern metal textures, the release offers something fresh for fans of classical crossover, instrumental metal, and holiday music alike.
​
As 2025 comes to a close, the video also carries a message of gratitude and optimism. “There’s a lot to be happy about and a lot to look forward to in 2026. Eat, drink, and be merry. Cheers from all of us to all of you!” Miller shares in the video description.
​
​“December, Joy of Man’s Suffering in the Holiday Spirit 2025” is now available to watch on YouTube at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=39p10iPW6SY​

This past September 2025 marked Matt Miller’s first full-band album after years of performing as a solo artist. Originally conceived as an instrumental record, the album entitled “Fiber Tormentum” evolved into a full-scale concept piece with vocals and contributions from the entire lineup. Lyrically, the record tells a loose sci-fi narrative of alien invaders manipulating human DNA to enslave humanity. Musically, it blends technical death metal, power metal, progressive death, and symphonic elements into a relentless yet melodic assault.

The album artwork, created by the late Joshua Nassaru Ward (Voraath), reflects the album’s core theme: a tormented face mid-transformation, symbolizing the manipulation of human DNA. The title “Fiber Tormentum” is inspired by Roman history, the sound of a ballista’s ropes tightening before release, a metaphor for the tension and release found throughout the album.
​
​“We set out to make the best possible record that we could and push ourselves to our best performances. We never settled and always reached higher. We explored all options and left no stone unturned. Fiber Tormentum was the most ambitious project I had ever worked on, and I wanted to make an album that not only belongs alongside the bands and songs that I hold in such high regard but also adds something new to the genre and brings something unique. A technical death metal album with clean vocals and intricate over-the-top guitars locked in step, and in those moments, they don’t back off but accelerate. If anything, it adds a hint of theatricality and makes the songs memorable, or I dare say catchy, with guitar and vocals entwined. One of the key elements of the album is its human feel. Yes, we used some modern production techniques, but this album still retains its human element while remaining focused and airtight. At the very least, this was the next step in my ever-changing musical evolution and expanding horizons, which only means that the next release will be more ambitious while providing a glimpse into our lives, because isn’t that what art is and does?” says Miller.​

Akademia Award-winning producer, engineer, and songwriter Matt Miller has unveiled a brand-new band playthrough video for the crushing instrumental title track of his latest album, “Fiber Tormentum.” The video showcases Matt Miller (guitars, synth), Jordan Kelso (drums, synth), and Justice Robinett (bass), performing the relentless, soaring, and technically precise music that defines the band’s sound.
​
Formed out of Miller’s solo project during the pandemic, the band has evolved into a dynamic force blending technical death metal, symphonic atmospheres, and epic vocal hooks. After Miller’s successful solo run on the Cyber Shred Tour 2022 with Rings of Saturn, he recruited Kelso, Robinett, and Wright to bring his vision to life. Together, they tracked “Fiber Tormentum,” a concept album weaving sci-fi themes of alien DNA manipulation with blistering riffs and cinematic intensity.
​
​“Fans will be pleasantly surprised. This is the first album as a full band with vocals, and it features the heaviest, most melodic, and most technical music I’ve ever written. It’s overwhelming, catchy, and relentless,” says Miller.
​
The playthrough video highlights the album’s title track, an instrumental centerpiece that encapsulates the record’s sweeping range, from crushing technical passages to soaring melodic peaks. The band’s chemistry is on full display, offering a glimpse into the immersive live experience they strive to deliver: dynamic, interactive, and unforgettable.
​
​“Fiber Tormentum” draws inspiration from metal titans such as Necrophagist, Wintersun, Symphony X, Nevermore, and The Faceless, while carving out a unique identity that melds precision with emotion. The album artwork, created by Joshua Nassaru Ward, reflects the lyrical concept of humanity’s DNA being manipulated by alien forces, a visual echo of the torment and transformation explored in the music.
​
With a history of international touring, including support slots for Possessed on their Oblivion Over Europe Tour, and a catalog that spans from instrumental epics to progressive covers, Matt Miller and Band continue to push boundaries. The new playthrough video is both a celebration of devolution and a bold statement of what’s to come.

0 Matt Miller and Band Unveil Playthrough for “Summoned” from Seventh Studio Album “Fiber Tormentum” Out Now!

Matt Miller and Band Unveil Playthrough for “Summoned” from Seventh Studio Album “Fiber Tormentum” Out Now!

Technical death metal guitarist and composer Matt Miller has released a full-band playthrough video for “Summoned,” one of the standout tracks from his new album “Fiber Tormentum,” which dropped this past September from Exitus Stratagem Records.
​
The playthrough showcases the technical precision and dynamic chemistry of Miller’s newly assembled lineup: Jordan (drums), Justice (bass), and Biko (vocals). Together, the group delivers a performance that is as crushing and relentless as it is melodic and epic, a perfect reflection of the band’s evolving sound.
​
​“‘Summoned’ is about the travel and detailed plans of the invaders, using astonishing acts. The music is something like a computer algorithm or an alien language. We wanted the playthrough to capture both the technicality and the storytelling behind the song; it’s overwhelming, but in the best way possible,” explains Miller.

Watch the playthrough via its premiere on MetalAddicts HERE.​
​
Released in September 2025, “Fiber Tormentum” marks Miller’s first full-band album after years of performing as a solo artist. Originally conceived as an instrumental record, the album evolved into a full-scale concept piece with vocals and contributions from the entire lineup.

Lyrically, “Fiber Tormentum” tells a loose sci-fi narrative of alien invaders manipulating human DNA to enslave humanity. Musically, it blends technical death metal, power metal, progressive death, and symphonic elements into a relentless yet melodic assault.
​
​“We set out to make the best possible record that we could and push ourselves to our best performances. We never settled and always reached higher. We explored all options and left no stone unturned. Fiber Tormentum was the most ambitious project I had ever worked on, and I wanted to make an album that not only belongs alongside the bands and songs that I hold in such high regard but also adds something new to the genre and brings something unique. A technical death metal album with clean vocals and intricate over-the-top guitars locked in step, and in those moments, they don’t back off but accelerate. If anything, it adds a hint of theatricality and makes the songs memorable, or I dare say catchy, with guitar and vocals entwined. One of the key elements of the album is its human feel. Yes, we used some modern production techniques, but this album still retains its human element while remaining focused and airtight. At the very least, this was the next step in my ever-changing musical evolution and expanding horizons, which only means that the next release will be more ambitious while providing a glimpse into our lives, because isn’t that what art is and does?” says Miller.​
​​
​Miller began his solo project in 2020 during the pandemic, writing songs that pushed his technical and creative limits. After touring as a solo artist with Rings of Saturn on the Cyber Shred Tour 2022, he assembled a full lineup to bring his vision to life. The band has since toured Europe supporting Possessed and continues to build momentum with their intense live shows.
​
Described in five words: relentless, Soaring, Crushing, Intense, Epic, Miller’s music draws influence from Necrophagist, Wintersun, Symphony X, Nevermore, and The Faceless, while forging a unique identity that merges technical mastery with hook-driven songwriting.

The album artwork, created by the late Joshua Nassaru Ward (Voraath), reflects the album’s core theme: a tormented face mid-transformation, symbolizing the manipulation of human DNA. The title “Fiber Tormentum” is inspired by Roman history, the sound of a ballista’s ropes tightening before release, a metaphor for the tension and release found throughout the album.

Recommended for fans of Necrophagist, Symphony X, Wintersun, The Faceless, and Death, “Fiber Momentum” (released Sept 12th) is available on all major platforms through Exitus Stratagem Records.

“All in all, it’s a fascinating song (Effectively Neutralized) — head-spinning and heart-palpitating but also a heavy-hitter and a conjurer of strange, sinister, and haunting visions. In other words, in the space of just five minutes it pulls off a lot of impressive feats. And the well-filmed and well-edited video for it is a perfect complement, in that it shows us how all these talented performers executed all the impressive accomplishments.” – NoCleanSinging

“Hell yeah. Holy moly canoli. Fiverr to Fiber Momentum, and that was the album. This song is Descent into Violence. Holy moly canoli, dude. Go support, Matt Miller. That was absolutely badass. Total shredding. Jordan, also a homie of mine, your drums are incredible. The new singer, Bo, I love the harsh vocals in the clean. Total is it almost the cleans almost reminded me of Queensryche meets Cannibal Corpse. It’s pretty freaking sweet. And of course, Justice always lays down the heavy bass with the beautiful bass faces. But an absolutely incredible album….Matt Miller, you could find him everywhere. He’s an incredible guitar player, one of the best guitar players of our generation. Remember, this is Fiber Tormentum courtesy of Exitus Stratagem Records. So, a huge shout-out to them as well. Matt Miller has so many more songs. If you guys like this song (Descent into Violence), believe me, this guy is an absolute shred master. Not only does he do like a ton of his own originals, he does a ton of covers, and also he’s just a shred master of all sorts. Just exactly how they say, melodic, technical, and death. But I will definitely say the big thing that stands apart about this whole song is great structure, absolutely shredding on all levels, and the vocals are just 100% one-of-a-kind.

​Technical death metal virtuoso Matt Miller will be officially releasing his seventh studio album, “Fiber Tormentum,” via Exitus Stratagem Records on September 12th, 2025. Born from the isolation of the 2020 pandemic, Miller’s solo project grew into a collaborative force after touring with Rings of Saturn and supporting Possessed across Europe. Miller assembled a powerhouse lineup of genre-spanning musicians featuring Jordan Kelso (drums/synth), Justice Robinett (bass), and Biko Wright (vocals). The result is “Fiber Tormentum”, a concept-driven album that fuses crushing technicality with soaring clean vocals to whisk you away on a genre-defying journey and musical evolution.

Lyrically, the album imagines a world where alien forces manipulate human DNA to enslave the planet. Each track tells a chapter of this dystopian saga. “Descent into Violence” opens with raw desperation and emotive intensity. “Summoned” details the invaders’ plans, its music mimicking alien algorithms. “Effectively Neutralized” enacts the invasion with unpredictable twists, while “Blight and Disfigurement” marches through environmental collapse. “Maimed Paralyzed Dead” evokes horror-movie dread, and “Horror Beyond Comprehension” captures humanity’s plea for mercy in overwhelming sonic waves. The instrumental title track, “Fiber Tormentum,” serves as a musical snapshot of the entire album, and “Abiotic Origin” closes with a powerful realization: humanity invited its own destruction, but hope lingers.

“This album is the most ambitious project I’ve ever worked on. We pushed ourselves to our limits, never settled, and created something that’s both technically brutal and emotionally resonant. It’s a glimpse into our lives, our evolution, and our vision for what metal can be,” says Miller.
​
The album artwork, created by the late Joshua Nassaru Ward (Voraath), reflects the album’s core theme: a tormented face mid-transformation, symbolizing the manipulation of human DNA. The title “Fiber Tormentum” is inspired by Roman history, the sound of a ballista’s ropes tightening before release, a metaphor for the tension and release found throughout the album.

Recommended for fans of Necrophagist, Symphony X, Wintersun, The Faceless, and Death, “Fiber Momentum” can be heard in full via album stream premiere on Decibel Magazine HERE.​
​
​“Fiber Tormentum” will be available on all major platforms through Exitus Stratagem Records.

Technical death metal maestro Matt Miller is set to unleash his seventh full-length, “Fiber Tormentum,” on September 12th via Exitus Stratagem Records. Marking a bold evolution from his instrumental legacy, this release embraces a full-band lineup featuring Jordan Kelso (drums, synth), Justice Robinett (bass), and Biko Wright (vocals). Each member injects a distinctive energy that elevates the album’s sonic intensity and emotional depth.

Earlier this summer, the first single, “Descent into Violence,” was unveiled along with a visualizer and playthrough; now the quartet is ready to showcase the next track, “Effectively Neutralized.”

“This track establishes the tone for our new LP, Fiber Tormentum. It makes a bold statement by blending melodicism and memorable hooks with the relentless elements of technical death metal. This combination creates a unique mixture of ferocity and intensity that delivers an emotional experience, which can sometimes be lost in this genre’s inhuman technicality. We believe this sets us apart from other artists, and we hope our authenticity resonates with the listener.” adds Miller.

Listen to “Effectively Neutralized” via its premiere on NoCleanSinging HERE.

A significant evolution in Miller’s musical journey, “Fiber Momentum” is an eight-track technical death metal opus that pushes boundaries with clean vocals, intricate guitars, and a theatrical, memorable sound. Lyrically, “Fiber Tormentum” envisions a scenario where extraterrestrial forces manipulate human DNA to subjugate humanity, blending speculative fiction with real-world anxieties. The album’s artwork, created by the late Joshua Nassaru Ward of Voraath, adds a poignant visual dimension to the project’s thematic depth.

“We emphasize our commitment to excellence, experimentation, and emotional authenticity, blending modern production with a human touch. The album represents a milestone in our evolving musical journey, with even greater ambitions for future work,” says Miller.
​
Listeners can expect a fusion of intricate musicianship and emotionally charged narrative, drawing inspiration from death metal trailblazers like Necrophagist and Spawn of Possession, while channeling the ambient intensity of visionaries such as Devin Townsend and Rivers of Nihil..

Acclaimed technical death metal virtuoso Matt Miller has his sights on releasing his seventh full-length album, “Fiber Tormentum,” via Exitus Stratagem Records on September 12, 2025. Backed by a full lineup for this offering, the first single, “Descent into Violence,” was unveiled this past June. Today, Miller is sharing his finesse and shred with a guitar playthrough video for fans, which can be viewed below.

A masterclass in technical guitar work, “Descent into Violence” is packed with rapid alternate picking, sweeping arpeggios, and intricate tapping runs. Miller’s phrasing balances aggression with melody, creating a sense of narrative tension. Miller explains further:

“Opening with a barrage of rapid alternate picking that establishes a relentless rhythmic momentum. The urgency intensifies with tremolo-picked riffs, injecting aggression and drive that are quintessential to the technical death metal genre. As the track unfolds, I unleash fluid sweep-picked arpeggios that span multiple strings, weaving in extended chord voicings and exotic scales to create passages that are both melodically intricate and harmonically rich, evoking a neoclassical sensibility. Interspersed throughout are seamless legato lines and two-handed tapping sequences, not merely for speed, but to craft expressive, lyrical phrases that contrast sharply with the track’s more percussive elements. Dissonant intervals and chromatic runs heighten the tension, lending the piece a dark, cinematic atmosphere that mirrors its title. Underpinning it all is a foundation of rhythmic complexity, with shifting time signatures and polyrhythmic grooves that challenge the listener’s expectations.”

Watch the guitar playthrough via its premiere on MetalInsider HERE.​

“Fiber Momentum” marks a significant evolution in Miller’s musical journey, transitioning from his previous instrumental works to a full-band composition. Joining him on this project are Jordan Kelso (Drums, Synth), Justice Robinett (Bass), and Biko Wright (Vocals), each bringing unique elements that enrich the album’s dynamic sound.

“Fiber Tormentum is the most ambitious project yet, aiming to create a technical death metal album that pushes boundaries with clean vocals, intricate guitars, and a theatrical, memorable sound. We emphasize our commitment to excellence, experimentation, and emotional authenticity, blending modern production with a human touch. The album represents a milestone in our evolving musical journey, with even greater ambitions for future work,” adds Miller.
​
Lyrically, “Fiber Tormentum” unfolds as a conceptual narrative, drawing inspiration from science fiction themes. The album envisions a scenario where extraterrestrial forces manipulate human DNA to subjugate humanity, blending speculative fiction with real-world anxieties. The album’s artwork, created by the late Joshua Nassaru Ward of Voraath, adds a poignant visual dimension to the project’s thematic depth.
​
Fans can anticipate a blend of technical precision and emotive storytelling, influenced by death metal pioneers like Necrophagist and Spawn of Possession and the atmospheric depth of artists such as Devin Townsend and Rivers of Nihil.
