Jefri Irsyad: my name is Jefri Irsyad, but many people in my country called me "Jeje GuitarAddict". I started to play guitar late, when I was 17 years old. I focused on learning shredding guitar and metal bands like Alterbridge, learning the song "open your eyes". I have been recording my material and in 2009 I made my first demo album entitled "proof of my life". Improving my playing all the while I released my second solo album "Got the life" in 2011. I am just releasing my latest album "The fractal reason"

The meaning of the album is in the title, "the fractal reason" The term "fractal" refers to the mathematician Benoît Mandelbrot's concept in 1975. Mandelbrot based it on the Latin frāctus meaning "broken" or "fractured"".

In this album I use unusual time signatures and song structures, some people that don't know about progmetal describe it as "broken" or "irregular".




there are 11 tracks on this album :



1. Break The Rules
2. Beat From Hell
3. Too Much Pressure
4. Fearless
5. Mental Illness
6. Happy Alone
7. I Just Wanna Run
8. Interlude
9. Riot City (2008 Demo)
10. Midnight Rain (Piano)
11. Don't Leave Me (outro)
