Reviews
"...a straight-ahead instrumental rock album....There's a real bite to much of this music, and Satriani's got a leaner tone to match. The glossy, airbrushed leads...are largely gone; in the few spots where they do appear...they take on a new air of menace...", "...this is Satriani's gutsiest and most plainspoken effort yet, echoing Jeff Beck and Jimi Hendrix, but with his own inimitable urgency. His roots are showing, in the best way." - Rating: A-, 3 Stars (out of 5) - "...this is an artifact brimming with unexpected delights...Satriani seems to be paying homage to an earlier era where melody took precedence over technique..."
