I highly recommend it! GREGALLEN7572 2008-4-02T08:45 PM+00:00 Fri, 02 May 2008 05:55:09 EST http://www.guitar9.com/cgi-local/wordofmouth.pl?seq=1447 http://www.guitar9.com/cgi-local/wordofmouth.pl?seq=1445 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. andyfrazer 2008-3-26T12:14 PM+00:00 Sat, 26 Apr 2008 05:55:09 EST http://www.guitar9.com/cgi-local/wordofmouth.pl?seq=1445 http://www.guitar9.com/cgi-local/wordofmouth.pl?seq=1444 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!

"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.

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. dnaydan 2008-3-08T06:23 PM+00:00 Tue, 08 Apr 2008 05:55:09 EST http://www.guitar9.com/cgi-local/wordofmouth.pl?seq=1442 http://www.guitar9.com/cgi-local/wordofmouth.pl?seq=1441 This is a great cd, I like this band and, it's powerful lyrics within the songs.

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. george_speelman 2008-3-02T05:28 PM+00:00 Wed, 02 Apr 2008 05:55:09 EST http://www.guitar9.com/cgi-local/wordofmouth.pl?seq=1440 http://www.guitar9.com/cgi-local/wordofmouth.pl?seq=1439 First!!!!! Thank you Kang Ino for signing my cd, it was an surprice when I saw it on the cd cover!!!! The cd " The Road" is that good as the first one "My World" I love track 9 on the cd. Ferdi.Revenberg 2008-3-02T02:13 PM+00:00 Wed, 02 Apr 2008 05:55:09 EST http://www.guitar9.com/cgi-local/wordofmouth.pl?seq=1439 http://www.guitar9.com/cgi-local/wordofmouth.pl?seq=1437 This is one awesome album, very groovy from the master of grooves, Keith has a passion for heavy groovy music, from beginning to end, this CD burns!! I highly recommend this CD. GREGALLEN7572 2008-3-01T08:37 PM+00:00 Tue, 01 Apr 2008 05:55:09 EST http://www.guitar9.com/cgi-local/wordofmouth.pl?seq=1437 http://www.guitar9.com/cgi-local/wordofmouth.pl?seq=1436 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. george_speelman 2008-3-01T05:36 PM+00:00 Tue, 01 Apr 2008 05:55:09 EST http://www.guitar9.com/cgi-local/wordofmouth.pl?seq=1436 http://www.guitar9.com/cgi-local/wordofmouth.pl?seq=1434 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! Prattmoore 2008-3-01T10:29 AM+00:00 Tue, 01 Apr 2008 05:55:09 EST http://www.guitar9.com/cgi-local/wordofmouth.pl?seq=1434 http://www.guitar9.com/cgi-local/wordofmouth.pl?seq=1433 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. dnaydan 2008-2-28T05:07 PM+00:00 Fri, 28 Mar 2008 05:55:09 EST http://www.guitar9.com/cgi-local/wordofmouth.pl?seq=1433
