, SiriusXM & Jose “Metal Ambassador” Mangin selected 15 musicians moving the needle in technique, tone, and uniqueness.

When metalcore felt like it was nearing its life cycle, Jesse Cash pushed the genre into a new progressive era, founding ERRA in 2009.
ERRA’s debut album Impulse (2011) gave fresh breath to the heavily criticized genre, with Cash fronting guitar and clean vocals. Cash showed how to incorporate beautiful reverb, complex rhythms, and poetic lyrics in a metalcore soundscape. With their follow-up LP Augment (2013), Cash doubled down on non-linear songwriting and added inventive choruses the genre had never seen before.

While Cash also leads clean vocals, he doesn’t let that take away from his monumental guitar duties. Cash has beautifully perfected this balance of matching impossible patterns while still singing live and then letting loose the second his full attention is free. Along his musical journey, Cash consistently revisited his solo project Ghost Atlas, exploring more emotional elements of alternative songwriting and stripped-down recordings.
With newcomer JT Cavey leading unclean vocals on technical guitar masterpiece Drift (2016), Cash stacked more guitar parts, and explored new keys. Citing Northlane and Meshuggah as favorites, Cash explored more mainstream choruses with the same ERRA chaos fans love on Neon (2018). Then, with the colossal self-titled ERRA (Deluxe, 2022), the band encased all previous records: introducing heavy synthesizers, darker melodies, and the perfect sweet-spot blending clean and unclean vocals. And near-impossible double bass drumming from Alex Ballew match Cash’s continued expanding songwriting.
Alyssa Day has taken a social-first approach to her music, sharing new ungodly riffs almost daily with her 100k Instagram followers. These original pieces can be snippets of upcoming tracks or ideas just improvised.
If You've Never Heard This Record But You Can…
Day has carried guitar duties for death metal band Mindscar since 2016, a spot previously held by Trivium’s Matt Heafy. From this project, songs like “Chasing The Grave” show Day’s speed, precision, and savage nature. And with a Jackson guitar endorsement and 15+ years of playing, her technical knowledge shines past half-hearted players.
Day’s debut EP Ruinous (2022) shared her true intentions for this solo namesake project. Bringing the smoothest sweep-picking, fastest shredding, and snappy bends, Day showed pure emotion to push you to tears on her instrumental debut. Tracks like “A Fever of Matter” shared post-metal rhythms pushed with progressive solos, leaving listeners on the edge of their seat wanting more.
Joshua Travis is relentless in his playing. Breaks that don’t give up. A tone that feverishly bites through the mix. Chord progressions and melodies that feel familiar yet new. And chunky breakdowns right where you want them.

Travis first erupted with experimental grindcore band Tony Danza Tapdance Extravaganza in 2010, leading guitar for albums Danza III (2010) and Danza IIII (2012). Progressive breaks, long tracks, and extravagantly technical playing quickly brought Travis to the forefront of eight-string guitar players. Later, Travis formed progressive metalcore band Glass Cloud, with The Royal Thousand (2012) still ringing notes ahead of its time. Layered stacked guitar progressions with post-hardcore vocals by Jerry Roush cemented the timelessness of the record.
After those chapters closed, Travis joined Emmure in 2016, exploring nu-inspired riffs and songwriting for a deathcore audience. Travis dialed into pushing his guitar tone deeper throughout Emmure’s releases of Look At Yourself (2017) and Hindsight (2020)
In 2020, Joshua Travis started a new solo project, featuring artists like Berried Alive, Stephen Taranto, Ryo Kinoshita, Andy Cizek, and more. With Travis’ lifelong dedication to breaking through the mold, the future of guitar is evolving just from each of his new releases.

Berried Alive blends up 20 genres into a smoothie filled with puns, juicy 808s, and cosmic guitar shredding. They arrived on the scene from their viral YouTube videos, consisting of married duo Kaylie and Charles Caswell. With Charles handling guitar and vocals and Kaylie handling bass and drum programming, Berried Alive have consistently put out 10-20 tracks a year for over half a decade.
Berried Alive are producers at their core and think of the guitar and bass as just another input. They aren’t afraid to chop up transitions, add a stack of effects, or lean on MIDI pedals — which makes guitar purists shiver. And with this “forbidden” approach, Berried Alive reinvent the guitar’s role and how it can sound. And they still back up their irrefutable chops with live playthroughs.

Berried Alive debuted their progressive metal album Soul Sucker (2016) with deathcore, metalcore, and electronic elements. Notably crafting their signature distorted low-end sound with atmospheric textures, each year the duo added a new tool to their repertoire: exploring progressives riffs with
The Mixgrape (2021) brought a new guitar tone for every song, and Our Own Light (2022) blended distortion with everything from pop to hip hop. Partnering with dozens of independent artists from rapper Mobbs Radical to Lucas Mann (Rings of Saturn), Berried Alive have unmatched range and refuse to sit in one bubble. And they will juice you in their songs if you disagree.

And holding Billboard Hot 100 songs for over 50 weeks, WILLOW is bringing guitar to an audience that had abandoned the six-string.
“After I picked up the guitar, everything changed because I didn’t need producers. I didn’t need anyone to write music. I could just do it all by myself. That was a game changer.”
WILLOW broke charts with her lyrical guitar chords backing her layered vocals in “Time Machine.” While using guitar as a backing piece for experimental pop songs in WILLOW (2019), she transitioned to heavier guitar production in lately I feel EVERYTHING (2021). Tapping Travis Barker and features from Tierra Whack and Avril Lavigne, WILLOW explored a darker, guitar-driven, alt rock record with hints of emo and punk.

Polyphia immediately drew a fanbase with their debut album instrumental album Muse (2014), receiving near-perfect reviews and leaning on support from their first EP’s viral YouTube moment. Guitarists Tim Henson and Scott LePage slide through harmony leads so catchy fans can’t help but sing along. And with Clay Gober driving on bass, the trio carries the voice of a choir.
Country Albums Every Rock Fan Should Own
Renaissance (2016) explored Polyphia’s melodic sounds and leaned on the “slap and pop” style created by legendary bassist Larry Graham and modernized by Victor Wooten. Henson and LePage explored much softer tones and open-playing versus their grinding first record, now giving Gober more space to work with intimate grooves.
With The Most Hated EP (2017), Polyphia sent their record to over a dozen producers to re-sample, giving us staples like “Goose.” Henson said in an interview with AAPI Magazine:
“I feel like in 2017 The Most Hated was way f****** ahead of its time… which was essentially intricate guitar with beats which followed the guitars; now in 2021, four years later, that’s what all the kids are doing now.”

Embracing their hate — and after a brief Christian rock metal run — Polyphia tapped the guitar innovators Yvette Young, Ichika, and Jason Richardson to build the nasty, saucy, rich New Levels New Devils (2018). Filled with sharp turns, Clay Gober spotlighted this album with bass breakdowns backed by a hip hop production that made your subwoofers jump.
