Terrance Hobbs (born April 6, 1970) is an American musician best known as the lead guitarist of the band Suffocation. He has been a constant member in the band since their first released title Reincremated along with bandmates and Mike Smith, who all met in high school. Hobbs also played in the project Criminal Element, which featured fellow Suffocation member, Derek Boyer.


Artistry
Hobbs is noted within the extreme metal community for his combination of fast and repetitive riffing accompanied by other and often technical unexpected patterns. This approach laid down the basics of what would eventually be considered technical/brutal death metal. He said: "as bands started to get progressively faster, our ears really liked that, and I think we thought it was fucking stupendous."

Typically, his -heavy guitar solos are accompanied with use, usually in the form of divebombs , trills and other techniques. Pierced from Within contains many examples of this, with an array of atmospheric, breakdowns and complex riffs, along with Effigy of the Forgotten and Souls to Deny, the latter of which features a great deal of layered riffing and melodies.

Hobbs mainly uses a custom B.C. Rich Warlock installed with a locking tremolo, a Super Distortion bridge pickup, Gotoh tuners, and fitted with D'Addario strings. His pedals include a OD-9 overdrive pedal, and a NS-2 Noise Suppressor. His amplification consists of a Peavey 6505+ played through Vader cabinets.
