Album Notes & Community Reviews
Backed by an exceptionally tight rhythm section featuring Gregg Bissonette and Matt Bissonette, the guitar virtuoso's fourth studio album is a cornerstone of instrumental hard rock. The record brilliantly balances face-melting, technically demanding fretwork with soaring, highly accessible melodic hooks, resulting in a massive commercial success.
