An hour and fifty minutes of brilliant walking the perfect middle line between ultra-melodic catchiness and the free-spirited, mischievous wit of improvisation from the one-of-a-kind master of the six-string bible left the crowd stunned by…

»Unstoppable Momentum« is a brilliant new manifesto of the symbiosis between Satriani's instinct and his schoolbook! With this new studio outing, the master only confirms the extraordinary artistic maturity of his songwriting character.

Joe Satriani – a guitar ace, an out-of-this-world artist when it comes to mastering six-string theory, and in sheer genius pretty much an "alien" – presented his new studio album "Unstoppable Momentum" on his third visit to the Slovenian…

On this album, Satriani proves he's not just a guitarist, but a whole lot more. His banjo, harmonica, and keyboard work stands out too.
