Josh Gomez (The Machinist)

“These cables are as tough as nails and sound great. I don’t play guitar without my Pig Hog Cables, period.”
Josh Gomez is the sole guitarist for the Queens, NY extreme metal band “The Machinist”. The self taught south paw went from band to band throughout the local NYC metal scene, not being able to feed his need for something out of the ordinary amongst the sea of bands in the big apple. With Influences from the likes of Dimebag Darrell, Alexi Laiho, and Jeff Loomis, Josh wanted to infuse his love for shred guitar with the pummeling hardcore elements that surrounded him from an early age. Thus ,The Machinist was born. The quartet just released their highly anticipated self titled Ep, through Westfall recording studios in Farmingdale, NY, which features soaring solos, punishing breakdowns and beautifully erie melodies. Now, the young guitarist can be seen sharing the stage with bands such as: Suicide Silence, Rings Of Saturn, Carnifex and many more metal titans, to showcase his energetic and chaotic stage presence and unique style of playing. You can catch Josh and his band The Machinist, soon in a city near you.
