He graduated from Conner High School in Hebron, Kentucky in 1983 and currently resides in Tampa. He is of Irish and German heritage. His hobbies involve hunting and target shooting.[4]{{nowrap|O'Brien}} got his first guitar when he was 11. His mother bought him an acoustic guitar for Christmas. Later, when he started to practice more he received his first electric guitar, a Gibson SG copy. His father also bought him a 1974 Gibson Flying V.[5] His influences include AC/DC, Black Sabbath, Deep Purple, Mercyful Fate and Metallica.[6]As a guitarist, O'Brien is formally trained, having studied classical guitar. He gave lessons at Buddy Rogers Music, a music store in Florence, Kentucky, where he encouraged his students to listen to jazz, classical, fusion, country and blues and not focus solely on metal. He recalls that his interest in classical guitar probably came from a concert of Andrés Segovia he attended with his father.[7] Segovia remains O'Brien's favourite guitarist and his main inspiration. Career{{nowrap|O'Brien}} started playing in a series of bands, sometimes as a touring musician and sometimes as a full-time member. Throughout the 1980s he played in heavy metal bands such as Chastain and Prizoner. In the 1990s {{nowrap|O'Brien}} evolved from heavy metal to death metal. Between 1990 and 1992 he played in the Cincinnati-based death/thrash metal band Ceremony alongside Steve Tucker, Greg Reed and Shannon Purdon. They released a demo in 1992 entitled Ceremony, and an EP called The Days before the Death that did not come out before 2000 and for which {{nowrap|O'Brien}} did the mastering with Mark Prator. After the band's breakup, {{nowrap|O'Brien}} decided to move out of Cincinnati. He relocated to Los Angeles and searched for a new band. Through tape trading he eventually got hired by Nevermore, who at the time were looking for a second guitarist.[8]{{nowrap|O'Brien}} stayed in the band for two years during which they recorded the EP In Memory and the full-length The Politics of Ecstasy which both came out in 1996. He also toured with the band and took part in a video shoot for the song "What Tomorrow Knows" from Nevermore's eponymous debut album. However, he felt unsatisfied with the band, preferring to be involved in death metal.[9] Following his departure from Nevermore, {{nowrap|O'Brien}} went through a transitional period where he briefly joined Monstrosity as a touring member but remained somewhat inactive for the rest of the time.Cannibal Corpse{{main|Cannibal Corpse}}In 1997 he was approached by Cannibal Corpse through several relations. After auditioning for the band, {{nowrap|O'Brien}} ultimately became a permanent member replacing Rob Barrett.[10][11] He has been featured on every Cannibal Corpse album since Gallery of Suicide. Since his involvement in Cannibal Corpse, {{nowrap|O'Brien}} has been credited on some of the band's more technically complicated songs. One song which has been cited by other band members, both past and current, as the most difficult Cannibal Corpse song is "Frantic Disembowelment" from the album The Wretched Spawn. To this day the band has performed this song live only once.[12] {{nowrap|O'Brien}} has often been complimented by his co-members and other musicians in the death metal scene for his proficiency. In the documentary DVD The First 20 Years bassist Alex Webster stated that "Some of his rhythm parts are as difficult as a solo might be in another band." Drummer Paul Mazurkiewicz commended his contribution to the band's music, stating "He really is a vital part of the Cannibal [Corpse] sound. His songs are awesome and we definitely need his songs on our CDs." {{nowrap|O'Brien}} himself admitted that he tends to write more technical songs but often regards it as a by-product of the songwriting process rather than an aim in itself.[13] However unlike Webster and Mazurkiewicz, {{nowrap|O'Brien}} does not take part in the composition of lyrics and instead focuses on the music.SlayerIn April 2011 {{nowrap|O'Brien}} filled in for Exodus' Gary Holt when Holt left the Slayer European tour to play with his own band. Holt himself had been filling in for the now deceased Slayer guitarist Jeff Hanneman since February 26, 2011, subsequently joining the band.[14] Guest appearances{{nowrap|O'Brien}} made several guest appearances as lead guitarist. He collaborated on Leather's solo debut album Shock Waves which came out in 1989.[15] He played lead on the track "Balancing Act" which came out as a bonus track for the 1997 re-issue of Lethal's "Your Favorite God" EP. In 2006 he played lead guitar on "Render My Prey" on Spawn of Possession's album Noctambulant. In 2008 {{nowrap|O'Brien}} played guitar on the song "Race Against Disaster" on Jeff Loomis's debut solo album Zero Order Phase. In the same year he made a guest solo appearance on Kataklysm's album Prevail.[16]ArrestOn December 10, 2018, O'Brien was arrested in Tampa for burglary on a house in the 4700 block of Windflower Circle near the Northdale Golf and Country and for assaulting a responding deputy. Reports showed that around 6:57 p.m., he entered a home without permission from its two occupants, who remain unidentified. After one occupant told him to leave, O'Brien pushed a woman to the ground, left the house and hid in the property's backyard until police arrived. A responding deputy gave him orders; instead of complying, {{nowrap|O'Brien}} charged at the deputy with a knife. The deputy then tased him, taking him into custody afterward. He was booked into the Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office on charges of burglary with assault or battery and aggravated assault on a law enforcement officer, and was being held without bail. The burglarized home is in the same area of a golf course where a house fire broke out about the same time at 16311 Norwood Dr. where O'Brien was renting. It was not immediately clear if the fire was connected to his arrest.[17][18] At O'Brien's court appearance on the morning of December 11, he wore an anti-suicide vest, with his wrists and ankles chained together. His bail was set at $50,000 and was told by a judge that he would need to pass a drug test to see if he could be bonded out of jail. O'Brien could face up to 30 years in prison just on the charge of aggravated assault on a law enforcement officer with a deadly weapon. The burglary charge could see a fine of up to $10,000 and a maximum of life in prison.[19] Flamethrowers and numerous weapons and ammunition were recovered inside O'Brien's home that had exploded. One neighbor said that he seemed "just like a regular neighbor. Get out of the car, go right into the house. That's about it." Another neighbor was terrified by the incident, but was thankful that the fire crew came in time to put the flames out before spreading to other homes. The owner of the home that O'Brien broke into, who did not want to be shown on camera, said that he thought that O'Brien was hallucinating when he spoke to him about the "rapture" and claimed, "someone was after him." The homeowner added that O'Brien seemed scared and at one point even hid in his closet.[20][21]A crowdfunding campaign for O'Brien was launched by drummer Paul Mazurkiewicz's wife Deana. She stated that he "does not have insurance, and lost everything that he owns. These funds will help him get back on his feet with the regular much-needed necessities like clothing, a roof over his head, and other daily life necessities that are needed."[22] O'Brien was released from jail on December 14 after posting bond.[23] The day after the fire subsided, fire marshals found a massive amount of weapons, locked safes and potential explosive devices in O'Brien's possession. The list of weapons found included 50 shotguns, 10 semi-automatic rifles (including a couple variants of AK-47s), two Uzi-style rifles and 20 handguns. Other materials found were a number of locked safes, two flamethrowers, thousands of rounds of ammunition that were stored in boxes, several other weapons with their parts and three skulls. One of the weapons in particular was a sawed-off shotgun (off to about an inch past the stock) that was illegal to possess without an ATF issued tax stamp pursuant with the National Firearms Act. The search warrant that was issued did not say that O'Brien had the proper paperwork for his cache.[24] Cannibal Corpse issued a statement on their Facebook page expressing their respects for O'Brien, but would not release any further information regarding the incident, and that he "is getting the help he needs and appreciates the love and support from Cannibal Corpse fans around the world." They then said that O'Brien is looking forward to a future return to the band and that their tours and shows would continue as planned.[25] Equipment{{nowrap|O'Brien}} plays mostly Jackson Custom Shop V's (as of 2017) which are equipped with an Fishman Fluence Modern pickup in the bridge position and a Floyd Rose bridge. When on tour, he takes four guitars, one for the different tunings and a spare. In Cannibal Corpse {{nowrap|O'Brien}} currently uses two tunings: A# standard and G# standard.[26] Both companies have released their respective Pat {{nowrap|O'Brien}} signature model.[27][28] Throughout his career {{nowrap|O'Brien}} has always preferred to use V shaped guitar. Other guitars included in his collection are:
(Older Guitars Used)
For amplification {{nowrap|O'Brien}} uses Mesa Boogie Triple Rectifier (2 channel) amplifier heads with 4x12 cabinets, some of which are loaded with Celestion Vintage 30 speakers and others which are loaded with Electro-Voice EVM12L Black Label Zakk Wylde speakers. He also uses a number of effect pedals such as a Robert Keeley modified Boss MT-2 Metal Zone, ISP Technologies Decimator Noise Reduction, Dunlop Crybaby Wah and a Boss Octaver.[29] Discography
