Artist: Jim Martin
While a member of Faith No More from the early '80s until his departure in 1993, Jim Martin's crushing heavy metal guitar riffs served as an important and major force in the band's sound. Born in Oakland, CA on July 21, 1961, Martin began playing guitar as a teenager, emulating his heroes Black Sabbath, Pink Floyd, and Led Zeppelin. Through one... [+] Read More
