Review of "Reasons For A Decade"
|
By: Terry Wickham
s it originally was in "Fantasia", "Nightmare On Bald Mountain" is an exciting classical piece of music, which was perfect for Mickey Mouse fighting the massive demon. Guitarist Chris Steberl has completely electrified this tune into pure guitar madness. "Trancemission" is shredding guitar handed to us on a silver platter. John Homan does an impressive job on the drums, adding his power to the already lethal mix. "Neptune Island" isn't a place to kick back. Instead Steberl is in a six-string frenzy, attacking the fretboard like his life depends on it. "Vivaldi's Summer Concertp (3rd Mov.)" is how Vivaldi's music should be played on guitar, not like that crap a certain female guitarist plays. "Sahara Skies" has a tropical feel, somewhat Latin tinge and the most diverse song on the CD. "Mozart 25th Symphony in 6M (Amadeus)" is a revitalized take onn the famous composer's track. As you might expect, it's a supercharged burner, which Steberl flies through. "Silk-N-Honey" is a cool down song, even though Steberl still is hi-energy exercising the strings of his guitar, it's just done in a soft Eric Johnson like tone. Impressive. I want more.
