Marty Friedman Streaming 'Jasmine Cyanide' From Upcoming Release

(TeamRock Radio) Marty Friedman has released a lyric video for his track Jasmine Cyanide. The song is taken from the upcoming digital deluxe re-issue of his 2014 solo album Inferno, due for release via Prosthetic on September 4.

Jasmine Cyanide and Ballad Of The Barbie Bandits are exclusive bonus tracks on the re-release and ex Megadeth guitarist Friedman says the former was the first song written for the album, before he decided to exclude it.

He says: "This was a big collaborative effort with the band Skyharbor, Danko Jones and myself. Dan Tompkins came up with the brilliant lyrics and melody line. Danko Jones heard Dan's amazing vocal tracks in the LA studio where I was working, because I had enlisted Danko to sing backups to Dan's lead vocals.

"Once we got started with that, Danko had a few vocal and lyrical ideas that I really liked and I couldn't ignore, so Danko and I did a rewrite on the spot. I love the song, but it didn't fit anywhere in the sequencing of the album nicely, so it didn't make it to the final album, and it found its way to the Japan bonus tracks."
