Marty Friedman - Jasmine Cyanide

     Your little bit weird Wednesday post this evening is a B-side from guitarist Marty Friedman that features a couple of unexpected cameos.

     Dan Tompkins' appearance on "Jasmine Cyanide", an off-cut from Marty's latest Inferno, is maybe a little understandable; Dan's got a great voice, and a growing resume as a session musician. But the inclusion of Canadian rocker Danko Jones is a bit more of an oddity, both conceptually and musically. I don't know if I'm quite sold on the rap-esque vocals he brings to the table, but rather than pontificate, I'll let you ruminate for yourself.
