<description><![CDATA[This is one hard hitting CD, It reminds me of Buckethead, however, BS is much more sane, barely, but indeed worth jamming to, I hope Ron and his band will make another even better CD soon.

<title>10 Star Rating for Personal Recommendation Pays Off</title>
<link>http://www.guitar9.com/cgi-local/wordofmouth.pl?seq=1445</link>
<description><![CDATA[I learned about Matt Cafissi because he contributed to Ty Oliver's latest CD. Ty is a great guitarist, and he recommended Matt's CD, so it had to be good.  "All the Little Things" is great. My favorite track is "One in a Million". I've already listened to it 20 or 30 times in the past two days (call me O.C.). He's a very talented guitarist and composer, and his guitar playing is very fresh. I wish he would tour in California some day.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><h6 style="clear: both; padding: 8px 0 0 0; height: 2px; font-size: 1px; border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0;"></h6><a href="http://www.guitar9.com/cgi-local/wordofmouth.pl?Permalink=1445" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent link to this entry">Permalink</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.guitar9.com/cgi-local/wordofmouth.pl?Comment=1445" title="Comment on this entry">Comment</a><br />]]>

<title>A Never-Ending Bag Of Grooves</title>
<link>http://www.guitar9.com/cgi-local/wordofmouth.pl?seq=1444</link>
<description><![CDATA[In 2008, Joe brings us "Prof. Satchafunkilus..." and it is another feast of Joe's never-ending bag of grooves, toe-tapping riffs and good time guitar instrumentals.  From the radio-friendly "Mustorium" and "I Just Wanna Rock", to the serious-ness of "Revelation", Joe continues to have fun with 4/4 and remind us that it's okay to play a well-constructed riff around an AC/DC type riff.  And deep down, we all have a little Joe in all of us.  Joe IS a mustorium and a master musician.  Grab a cup o' Joe today!  <br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><h6 style="clear: both; padding: 8px 0 0 0; height: 2px; font-size: 1px; border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0;"></h6><a href="http://www.guitar9.com/cgi-local/wordofmouth.pl?Permalink=1444" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent link to this entry">Permalink</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.guitar9.com/cgi-local/wordofmouth.pl?Comment=1444" title="Comment on this entry">Comment</a><br />]]>

<title>Taking Music To The Edge</title>
<link>http://www.guitar9.com/cgi-local/wordofmouth.pl?seq=1443</link>
<description><![CDATA[Do you like scary movies with nasty monsters and really nightmarish images?  "Cortical Tectonics" has that first impression...especially if you first experience it with headphones.  Which, is what I did.  But, after removing the cans from my ears and letting the smoke leave my ear canals, I believe I realized the name of the disc says it all:  'cortical' refers to the brain, 'tectonics' is the study of rock in the earth and geology...Hmmm...thinking rock.  And my first experience wasn't too bad.  There's grindcore, which I don't grasp but it is a genre' of music, there's ethereal, there's speed metal.  I best describe it as "King Crimson meets Tool and rolls in Anthrax."  You can't whistle the tunes at work but it is great background music if you work in the insipid world of RV mania.  It perks you up when someone asks you that famous "stupid" question because they have no sense to figure it out.  Give this a few spins because Canvas Solaris takes their music to the edge and stands on one toe.  It is very refreshing to hear players take their tunes into a different plane, whether it's to invoke fear, laughter, bad dreams, pornography, or to get away from stupid people.  It deserves its space and this disc turns a stupid, bad day into something you're thankful for...the ability to think on your own and knowledge is power.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><h6 style="clear: both; padding: 8px 0 0 0; height: 2px; font-size: 1px; border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0;"></h6><a href="http://www.guitar9.com/cgi-local/wordofmouth.pl?Permalink=1443" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent link to this entry">Permalink</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.guitar9.com/cgi-local/wordofmouth.pl?Comment=1443" title="Comment on this entry">Comment</a><br />]]>

<title>GasHead Rules!</title>
<link>http://www.guitar9.com/cgi-local/wordofmouth.pl?seq=1442</link>
<description><![CDATA[I'd give this c.d. more than 10 points if I could.  One of the best instrumentals I've ever heard.  Gashead takes no prisoners.  They play heavy,very heavy,metal type tunes with thrash and rock influences, this is all killer, no filler.  These guys certaintly ain't no garage band though.  Gashead are polished musicians and their playing is second to none.  The whole c.d. has great conformity, and the band also never stops displaying creativity and a total knowledge of maturity, music theory and composition (they aren't afraid to use chord changes).  Gashead rules and this disc is just untouchable.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><h6 style="clear: both; padding: 8px 0 0 0; height: 2px; font-size: 1px; border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0;"></h6><a href="http://www.guitar9.com/cgi-local/wordofmouth.pl?Permalink=1442" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent link to this entry">Permalink</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.guitar9.com/cgi-local/wordofmouth.pl?Comment=1442" title="Comment on this entry">Comment</a><br />]]>

<title>9 Star Rating for Steve Stevens "Flamenco A Go Go"</title>
<link>http://www.guitar9.com/cgi-local/wordofmouth.pl?seq=1440</link>
<description><![CDATA[A wonderful but a bit uneven record. Several tunes seem a little trite but "Our Man in Instanbul" is fantastic, "Cincetta" is beautiful and "Feminova" is worth the price of the disk all by iteslf. 

Check it out.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><h6 style="clear: both; padding: 8px 0 0 0; height: 2px; font-size: 1px; border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0;"></h6><a href="http://www.guitar9.com/cgi-local/wordofmouth.pl?Permalink=1440" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent link to this entry">Permalink</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.guitar9.com/cgi-local/wordofmouth.pl?Comment=1440" title="Comment on this entry">Comment</a><br />]]>

<title>Reminiscent Of "Aja"-era Steely Dan</title>
<link>http://www.guitar9.com/cgi-local/wordofmouth.pl?seq=1436</link>
<description><![CDATA[This is a very good record. The first 2 songs are a little 'meh', but it really picks up. Stylistically, it reminds me a lot of Steely Dan's 'Aja'. Starts off sort of mellow and picks up more edge as it moves along. 'Hulk' is the strongest track. <br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><h6 style="clear: both; padding: 8px 0 0 0; height: 2px; font-size: 1px; border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0;"></h6><a href="http://www.guitar9.com/cgi-local/wordofmouth.pl?Permalink=1436" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent link to this entry">Permalink</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.guitar9.com/cgi-local/wordofmouth.pl?Comment=1436" title="Comment on this entry">Comment</a><br />]]>

<title>Heavy Grooves, Odd Meters, Blazing Shred</title>
<link>http://www.guitar9.com/cgi-local/wordofmouth.pl?seq=1434</link>
<description><![CDATA[I am a bit behind everyone else, so please forgive me.  This 2004 release features 3 extremely talented guitarists playing a jazz/prog-fusion rock set of really great instrumentals that have that Frank Zappa meets Joe Satriani groove.  All the elements are there;  heavy grooves in odd meters, blazing shred guitar solos, and what most guitarists think that is important...the 'wow!!' factor.  Each guitarist has released projects on his own and it is a blessing when 3 guitarists from different backgrounds (much like the famous 'G3' tours) can lay their egos down and play awesome music, that not only spotlights themselves but their fellow guitarists.  My faves on this disc are "The Usual Unusual", "2 Sides of the Same Trouble" and "Back on the Track".  Joel Rivard, Alessandro Benvenuti and Milan Polak delivered a thumbs up on this set from 4 years ago.  And like I said, I am behind a bit but I feel this disc sounds at home in this year as I am sure it did back in 2004.  Play it over and over!  <br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><h6 style="clear: both; padding: 8px 0 0 0; height: 2px; font-size: 1px; border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0;"></h6><a href="http://www.guitar9.com/cgi-local/wordofmouth.pl?Permalink=1434" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent link to this entry">Permalink</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.guitar9.com/cgi-local/wordofmouth.pl?Comment=1434" title="Comment on this entry">Comment</a><br />]]>

<title>Stetina`s Wall Of Sound</title>
<link>http://www.guitar9.com/cgi-local/wordofmouth.pl?seq=1433</link>
<description><![CDATA[You have got to be kidding me, the ultimate rock hero, this is sick, he makes Eddie Van Halen seem like a baby. Is this guy some kind of frig'in hard rock prodigy or what? All of these fantastic tunes on this cd take on a solid, mid-paced tempo, and are extremely slinky and sexy.  Stetina builds a wall of sound and his awesome playing and soloing (which is some of the best I've ever heard) seems to be played with reckless abandon. If you don't love this than you just dont love the electric guitar, a masterpiece.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><h6 style="clear: both; padding: 8px 0 0 0; height: 2px; font-size: 1px; border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0;"></h6><a href="http://www.guitar9.com/cgi-local/wordofmouth.pl?Permalink=1433" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent link to this entry">Permalink</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.guitar9.com/cgi-local/wordofmouth.pl?Comment=1433" title="Comment on this entry">Comment</a><br />]]>

<title>Up Close With Yngwie</title>
<link>http://www.guitar9.com/cgi-local/wordofmouth.pl?seq=1430</link>
<description><![CDATA[If you want to see ALOT of Yngwie and really get up close, then Yngwie's "Live" DVD
is for you.  This was shot and recorded in Brazil in May of 1998, so it's almost 10
years old.  But, for those of us living in an area where the Amish are so prevalent,
this is the best thing to watch the virtreous do that thing he does best.  And as we
know Yngwie, he did everything necessary to ensure that it has his thumb of
approval.  Doing the production and directing and the video editing and the audio
editing, Yngwie makes sure we are given the full treatment.  Bassist Barry Dunaway
seems to be a bit unsure of his boss and focuses on playing the bass lines and
staying out of Yngwie's way.  Mats Leven's vocals are strong and sure and we get to
hear some great keyboard playing from Mats Olausson.  All the pyrotechnics are here:
 Yngwie spinning the guitar around himself, throwing it up in the air ala Ritchie
Blackmore, pulling the strings off of one of his strats and creating a repeating
tone by increasing the speed knob on his delay and he keeps his smoky handy ala
Eddie Van Halen and Keith Richards, and lots of flash pots.  He does do the "awwwww"
deal by dedicating "Like An Angel" to his wife April.  And if you look closely at
one scene, you can see a female figure off on Yngwie's side of the stage.  Is that a
glance of Mrs. Malmsteen?  We even get to hear some Hendrix on this as "Manic
Depression" gets Yngwie singing it in his unique voice.
So, if you need to see an ultimate guitar hero and you can't get a ticket, then grab
this DVD and turn it up.  Yngwie does deliver and we wouldn't expect anything less
from Yngwie, you know? <br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><h6 style="clear: both; padding: 8px 0 0 0; height: 2px; font-size: 1px; border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0;"></h6><a href="http://www.guitar9.com/cgi-local/wordofmouth.pl?Permalink=1430" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent link to this entry">Permalink</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.guitar9.com/cgi-local/wordofmouth.pl?Comment=1430" title="Comment on this entry">Comment</a><br />]]>

<title>Looking For Brutal Instrumental?</title>
<link>http://www.guitar9.com/cgi-local/wordofmouth.pl?seq=1429</link>
<description><![CDATA[Ive been waiting for a CD like this for a while. My wife listened to this and said it was "obnoxous, cacaphonic, chaotic and riotous," and she may be right.  In other words, perfect for me. It's all of that plus much more. The production is huge and full, impressive. A pounding and relentless recording, relief is given by small breaks of bizarre and scary sound effects, thankfully kept to a minimum, and then right back to the beating. If you think you're a metalhead,but get tired of that growling and screaming, this will deliver what you crave. Knight plays metal,the real thing, and you better enjoy being totally abused as this is one of the most brutal instrumentals ive ever heard,and its been seeing alot of play.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><h6 style="clear: both; padding: 8px 0 0 0; height: 2px; font-size: 1px; border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0;"></h6><a href="http://www.guitar9.com/cgi-local/wordofmouth.pl?Permalink=1429" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent link to this entry">Permalink</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.guitar9.com/cgi-local/wordofmouth.pl?Comment=1429" title="Comment on this entry">Comment</a><br />]]>

<title>A Cup Of Joe Cranked To 11</title>
<link>http://www.guitar9.com/cgi-local/wordofmouth.pl?seq=1428</link>
<description><![CDATA[I must admit I discovered the incredible Joe Stump late in life.  It wasn't until "Shredology" was released.  Luckily, I was forgiven of my oversight and in reviewing "Rapid Fire Rondo", it continues to cement in my mind that Joe is one of the great shredmeisters of our time.  The title track and "Speedball Sonatina" are my faves on this disc.  But, I shouldn't really say that because I truly enjoy the whole disc.  Even if it is almost 10 years old.
Recently, I have been playing more classical ambient guitar to help lower my blood pressure.  But, golly gee!  Sometimes that caffeine rush feels so good and a cup of Joe cranked to 11 is the ticket.
Every good shredding guitarist needs to have some Joe Stump in their CD collection.  And, I believe it.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><h6 style="clear: both; padding: 8px 0 0 0; height: 2px; font-size: 1px; border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0;"></h6><a href="http://www.guitar9.com/cgi-local/wordofmouth.pl?Permalink=1428" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent link to this entry">Permalink</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.guitar9.com/cgi-local/wordofmouth.pl?Comment=1428" title="Comment on this entry">Comment</a><br />]]>

<description><![CDATA[WoW... what an artist, this guy can rip your heart out and show it to you with blistering riffs and licks and then seduce your girl with flaminco style interludes in the middle of each song.

<title>One Monster Effort</title>
<link>http://www.guitar9.com/cgi-local/wordofmouth.pl?seq=1426</link>
<description><![CDATA[There are a lot of really good guitarist out there, and Andy is one of them. His sense of timing phrasing and melody are very well in tune with each other and although the drums are processed it really does not take away from a monster effort on this disc. If you don't have it you should. If you do have it you shouldnt't be reading the review of this disc,you should be listening to it.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><h6 style="clear: both; padding: 8px 0 0 0; height: 2px; font-size: 1px; border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0;"></h6><a href="http://www.guitar9.com/cgi-local/wordofmouth.pl?Permalink=1426" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent link to this entry">Permalink</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.guitar9.com/cgi-local/wordofmouth.pl?Comment=1426" title="Comment on this entry">Comment</a><br />]]>

<title>A Neo-Classical Must-Have</title>
<link>http://www.guitar9.com/cgi-local/wordofmouth.pl?seq=1423</link>
<description><![CDATA[If there is a Genesis in the neo-classical metal bible, Yngwie would be there.  For us old duffers, we had Hendrix, then Ritchie and Uli.  Next, came Van Halen and Randy.  When Randy was called home, we needed another hero.  Yngwie made us realize that playing the music of Bach, Mozart and Paganini was cool.  Vinnie Moore, Joe Stump and Paul Gilbert confirmed this, if we needed to have it punched into our skulls.  I still have my Alcatrazz vinyl "No Parole From Rock-N-Roll" when I read of the 20 year old wunderkind.  And "Rising Force" confirms it.  This disc does belong in every metal guitarists' collection.  Whether on vinyl or CD, it's a must and I believe it.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><h6 style="clear: both; padding: 8px 0 0 0; height: 2px; font-size: 1px; border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0;"></h6><a href="http://www.guitar9.com/cgi-local/wordofmouth.pl?Permalink=1423" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent link to this entry">Permalink</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.guitar9.com/cgi-local/wordofmouth.pl?Comment=1423" title="Comment on this entry">Comment</a><br />]]>

<description><![CDATA["Life is Good" is stuck in my CD player and in my iPod. The guitar playing on this CD is so good, so sublime that I never get tired of listening to it. Jimmy Mac takes it to another level on this CD. I highly recommend this CD. It is high value. Well worth the price.
