stfu plz :rolleyes:

Yngwies Still the king, Great review Sting-O Im gonna pick that up for sure. Neo-Classical anything = :thumb:

I just got into yngwie latly and since theres no other reviews what album do you think is his best? thx in advance

rising force, fire and ice, the seventh sign, and attack!! are my favourites; any one of them would be a great.

I don't like him either, he's all about technicality and not about the actual songs, he
prefers to have long ass guitar solos then rythm pieces. He is also one of the most
arrogant pricks I've heard of.

valhalla has defenatley got to be one of yngwies catchies songs

Album Rating: 3.0

one of his greatest albums

Album Rating: 3.5

Maybe that´s just what I think but you have forgotten, when you mentioned the notable songs, these four:

Rise Up-classic Yngwie song, more notable than the Razor Eater, Doogie White really hits the point and backing vocals by Yngwie don´t lack as in Valley Of Kings

Mad Dog-very strong and expressive song, improved by the keyboard solo (very rare on Yngwie´s albs in these times)

In The Name Of God-the melody sung by the choral on the beginning makes the song the easiest to remember on this album

Freedom Isn´t Free-the absolutely top of this album, reminds me Jimi Hendrix and ensures me that Yngwie has a really big blues feeling and his vocals goes very well with the feeling of the song, Doogie (nothing against him) wouln´t be able to sing it better



But I must congratulate you, though. You have done a splendid job. Cheers.

yngwie is a pretty epic guitarist because its not all mindless wanking. he's actually pretty impressive musically.

I agree - Ive always had a special appreciation for Yngwie and his writing abilities. I have an album of him, I dont think its posted on this site, thats all instrumental with a symphony accompanying him the entire time, and he wrote all the instrumental parts, every instrument, every song. Perhaps ill review it, its spectacular.

yngwie is my favorite guitarist
his musical ability is absolutely stunning
in a way, he helped shape power metal along with iron maiden his neo classical style is great
he is total virtuoso

great review, refreshing to read. yes i do think yngwie is great, but there are better.
