Hi, I'm Steve Vai. Listen to me wanking. (Disclaimer- For The Love Of God is breathtakingly good)

This guy can play. In addition to that, he does have a veey nice sense of music and melody. Combined they make for a great album, however of course it could be less cheesy and pompous. Overall really great though. Not a big fan of the commentary between tracks either.

This album made me stop playing guitar for years. KISS Alive made me want to play, this one didn?t! It utterly depressed me.

3.5 greatkheman1317 | January 26th 19

Contains some really good melodies and shreds and some wankeries here and there, still far from being a classic. Erotic Nightmares, Ballerina 12/24 and For the Love of God are perhaps by favorite tracks from this album.

My neighbor's shrubbery is more captivating than this self-indulgent mess.

4.5 superbSystemunfolded | August 17th 12

Between this guy and Joe Satriani, they almost compete with my love for Buckethead. I just love listening to guitar virtuoso's go at it like this

Bump

5.0 classicTheCourage | July 16th 12

Fucking essential in any serious guitar players collection.

Bump

0.0 mandan | January 13th 12

Vai's masterful response to Satriani's Surfing With the Alien. This album is great and extremely rewarding. Vai's approach to his instrument is nothing short of impressive, he's the guitarist that many aspire to be.

3.0 goodTRMshadow | April 7th 11

Van Dragonforce, in a word. I know Van Halen came before and Dragonforce came after, but that's what this album is. Endless wankery that sometimes sounds really awesome, but most of the time just gets tiring. Not to the completely deplorable level of crab-core, but still a chore to listen to in my opinion. 3.1/5

Bump

2.5 averageIre | December 29th 09

this album fucking sucks

Bump

4.5 superbshindip | August 5th 09

Containing some absolutely spectacular guitar work, this album is widely considered to be a masterpiece, and for good reason. The instrumentation is brilliant, and the song structures are varied and interesting with plenty of variety. If you are a guitarist, or simply someone interested in instrumental rock, you must get this album.
