Album Review

Not of This Earth was the first studio release from guitar wizard Joe Satriani (not counting the hard-to-find Joe Satriani EP). This all-instrumental album was making ripples in the guitar-playing community not long after it was released, and it's easy to see why: superior compositions, a signature style, a unique tone, and playing that's out of this world. Satriani shifts musical gears deftly, often layering multiple tracks together to make a complex soundscape. The fiery sound of "Not of This Earth" and "Hordes of Locusts" is tempered by the cool, dark tone of "Driving at Night," the far-out Eastern approach of "The Snake," and the quiet, thoughtful "Rubina." Satriani's fluid playing and wicked licks are enough to drop jaws and widen eyes. There isn't a weak track on this disc, even though the guitarist was still maturing when he released it.

hahaha indeed
     

What is "the gore-gore talking about "cheesy 80's/90's synthesizers"? None used on this album. The guitars sure do sound cool tho. You can see that Joe has everything already in place style wise. It's a cool cd for any fan

the Greatest Guitarest (Next To Jimi Hendrix)
     

Joe Satriani is one of the best guitarest who ever lived. This is his debut album, and also one of his greatest.

alien space music
     

memories and hordes of locust are amazing songs but check out the live vesions of those same songs off of dreaming#11.those vesions are much better.
