Review of "Guitarisma"
|
s an avid music fan and collector, I spend countless hours at record stores
or online looking for that one cool thing I never heard before. Know the
feeling? If you're like me, you usually return home empty handed. Then, out
of nowhere a CD falls into my lap that impresses me and temporarily fills
that void. Such is the case with "Guitarisma". My latest guitar hero hails
from Denmark and his name is Torben Enevoldsen. My first comment upon
listening to his CD, "Guitarisma", is that if you're a guitar fan and have
never heard of this guy, it's about time you looked him up. His guitar
skills rank right up there with the likes of Joe Satriani, Vinnie Moore,
Paul Gilbert and Tony MacAlpine, as he's a fast, yet melodic shredder, which
makes sense as his main influences are Ritchie Blackmore and Yngwie
Malmsteen.
A collection of 12 mostly instrumental tracks, "Guitarisma" is a Shred fan's
wet dream as it gives Torben Enevoldsen a mighty big avenue to show off his
skills as a master shredder. All the influences and styles are there for
your listening pleasure. Standous are the Vai-ish "Take Your Pick", the
beautiful "For A Friend" which is reminiscent of early Carlos Santana, the
Rockin' "Just in Case", and the funky "What If...?". It's hard to pick a
standout song because guitar and Rock fans will definitely enjoy every
single song. As for the vocal tunes they're reminiscent of Yngwie
Malmsteen's "Eclipse" era as vocalist Kenny Lubcke sounds a lot like former
Yngwie vocalist Goran Edman maybe with a bit more power. And trust me,
that's a good thing.
With "Guitarisma", Torben Enevoldsen gives us an excellent Shred Album filled
with inventive axe mastery. And he also gives us a reason to anxiously await
his next release. If you're reading this, then click that link down below,
get acquainted with Torben, pick up some of his music and tell 'em The House
of Shred sent you. You won't be sorry you did, I promise.
