Artist description One of the best ways to judge the character of an individual is by looking at how they deal with adversity. Some people turn to drugs and alcohol to numb the pain or make them forget their problems. Others let depression and rage build up inside, only to flare out at an early age. Still others choose to seek professional advice hoping that by confronting their demons, they can help understand and eventually overcome their troubles.Keith Guillory doesn't just confront his demons, he attacks them. Instead of lying on a couch revealing his innermost fears to a trained professional, Guillory heads into his home-based Goatland Studios and proceeds to document those emotions for himself and anyone willing to listen. The result of those therapeutic late-nights in the studio, Guillory's self-produced debut solo project Lost Eden, reveals an individual deeply at conflict with himself and the world. In music ranging from harsh and brutal to somber and melodic, Guillory's complex emotions are impressively conveyed in deceptively straightforward songs. Focusing on themes of obsession, loneliness, and, ultimately,redemption, Lost Eden is an atmospheric exploration into the mind of a talented yet troubled musician. By utilizing his ten years-plus guitar experience, with nods to such creative visionaries as Dave Gilmour, Mike Patton, and Trent Reznor, Guillory is able to achieve a uniquely rich sound using his sincere emotions as the thread holding the songs together. If honesty is the best way to handle adversity, Lost Eden proves Keith Guillory should eventually come out all right. Even if he's not convinced yet.Phillip Redgoat
