Rising Austrian guitar virtuoso Simon Ostini is set to release his explosive new instrumental single Waltz of the Vultures on April 17, 2026, via Hellbound Records. Fusing high-octane shred, melodic metal, and cinematic flair, the track delivers a relentless showcase of precision, speed, and expressive guitar mastery that’s guaranteed to turn heads in the global metal scene.
Fans of Gus G. , Andy James , and Marty Friedman will find plenty to sink their teeth into, as Ostini channels both technical firepower and memorable phrasing into a track that balances flash with feel. Waltz of the Vultures isn’t just a shred fest, it’s a calculated, dynamic composition that highlights his evolution as both a player and a songwriter.
Simon Ostini’s journey began at the age of seven, quickly developing into a lifelong pursuit of excellence. During his teenage years, he cut his teeth with hard rock outfit StageFright, recording an album and an EP while touring internationally. Those early experiences laid the groundwork for his reputation as a highly skilled and dedicated guitarist.
As his online presence grew through jaw-dropping guitar performances, Ostini caught the attention of major brands like Marshall Amplification , Beyerdynamic , and Polychrome DSP , leading to collaborations that further cemented his standing in the guitar community.
After relocating to Sweden post-graduation, Ostini released his solo album Witches and expanded his reach as a session guitarist, contributing to multiple projects including a feature appearance on the debut album of Swiss metal band I Won’t Skye . In August 2025, he joined German metal act ELA , contributing guitar work to several singles and their upcoming studio release.
Drawing inspiration from legendary players such as John Sykes , Doug Aldrich , Satchel , Buckethead , and Vinnie Vincent , Ostini continues to push his sound forward while staying rooted in the traditions of classic and modern metal guitar.
