MATT MILLER Shares New Tech-Death Playthrough "Abiotic Origin"

Tech‑death guitarist and composer Matt Miller is gearing up for a high‑velocity spring with the launch of the 3 Shredders Tour, a lead‑guitar‑driven showcase featuring shred icon Rene Benton and explosive guitar virtuoso Manuel Urgiles. The tour kicks off this April and channels the spirit of legendary guitar events like the G3 Tour, only heavier, faster, and rooted firmly in the extreme‑metal world.

The run supports Matt Miller’s latest LP, "Fiber Tormentum," a sci‑fi‑infused technical death metal journey praised for its precision, atmosphere, and relentless musicianship. ​

To celebrate the upcoming tour, Matt Miller has released a brand‑new guitar playthrough video for “Abiotic Origin”. The video showcases Miller’s signature blend of sci‑fi atmosphere, hyper‑technical riffing, and cinematic composition. “Abiotic Origin” stands as one of the defining tracks on "Fiber Tormentum," capturing the album’s fusion of futuristic storytelling and extreme musicianship.

Watch the playthrough below!

The 3 Shredders Tour unites three elite players known for pushing the boundaries of modern metal guitar. In addition to Rene Benton’s blistering lead work, fans will also see him joined by Kelly Conlon, the legendary bassist formerly of Death, who performed on the iconic album "Symbolic" and toured with the band during that era. Conlon’s presence adds a historic and unmistakable layer of prestige to the tour’s 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 Del Giudice 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 Matt Miller. ​

With three world‑class musicians on one bill, the 3 Shredders Tour promises a night of blistering solos, technical mastery, and genre‑bending creativity. Dates listed below with more to be announced.

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. Now backed by Extreme Management Group and a fully realized band, he continues to expand his sound and ambition.

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.
