Title: super Gothic !
Product review: Yingwie is back, gothic as he's never been. On this album he ascends to the roots of Goth metal, even close to black metal. The sound is very meaty, not as piercing as on Alchemy. he uses a lot of open chords, all the solos sound like played on tube amplification, overdriven, overloading on low segments.the first track has a nice leading tune, and the solo begins with pagannini's 24th caprice. Catch 22 is one of the best tracks, vampire-kind of black metal, fast and furious.Mark Boals delivers amazing vocals, very suitable for this particular album. It took me 2 or 3 listens before I saw it in all its solidness and beauty. I rank it one of the coolest maestro's works, along with Trilogy and Alchemy. I definitely recommend it to any serious Yngwie's fan and collector.
