Legendaarinen kitarasankari Yngwie Malmsteen julkaisemassa uutta albumiaan kesäkuussa

Legendaarinen ruotsalainen kitarasankari Yngwie Malmsteen on julkaisemassa uransa seuraavaa albumia nimeltä ”World On Fire” kesäkuun 1. päivä King Recordsin kautta. Mies on antanut hiljattain Seymour Duncanille haastattelun albumistaan, josta on kertonut mm. seuraavaa:

”I spent two years [working] on it, touring, recording, touring, recording. And that’s much, much better, actually, in a way. Back in the day I would write the songs then rehearse them with some musicians, then go and do a backing track and we’d record it, mix it, learn the songs to go play them on tour, then do it all again. That way isn’t necessarily conducive to making the best music, y’know what I mean? So in a very, very backhanded way, this weird twist of fate in the music industry has actually made it a more inspiring environment, for me at least. I can write anytime and record anytime. My recording studio is always open, 24 hours. I can just record when I want and it’s a beautiful thing.”

Albumin suuntauksesta kysyttäessä kertoi Yngwie tyylistä seuraavasti:

”It’s a Malmsteen record. [Laughs] But I would say it’s a little different. First of all, I do all the lead vocals on it. Any time I did lead vocals in the past, I was singing blues stuff. This time I decided to do lead vocals in my style of songwriting, so it’s different in that way. It’s a very hard-hitting album and some parts are very advanced, very complicated. But it’s a broad record. It’s definitely a must-listen-to!”
