anish guitar hero Torben Enevoldsen returns with his latest release Heavy Persuasion, and unlike his previous release Guitarisma, this one's a totally instrumental, mind-blowing shredfest. Torben's style is very unique and his tone is impressive. Equally impressive is that Torben manages to stand out in such a demanding genre of music. Check out his leads on "Desert Groove" and the title track "Heavy Persuasion" - they're nothing short of amazing.
Torben is a very diverse guitar player and it shows, "Spacewalk" is a perfect example on how to use electronic beats to complement (and not ruin) a song, and "About Time" experiments successfully with latin percussion and acoustic guitars. Torben is a good songwriter as well - "Another Page" is a perfect example of how to write a good instrumental.
"Heavy Persuasion" shows a more mature Torben Enevoldsen; a guitarist, songwriter, and artist that's just coming into his own. I for one am looking forward to following his musical journey.
