Product Description
CD Description
Produced and recorded by Mike Fraser (AC/DC, Metallica), Black Swans and Wormhole Wizards, is Joe's 14th studio album. Once again, Joe is joined by his long-term drummer Jeff Campitelli, alongside newcomers Mike Keneally (keyboards - Frank Zappa, Steve Vai) and Allen Whitman (bass guitar - Mermen). On the eleven tracks that make up Black Swans and Wormhole Wizards, Satriani‟s classic sound is accompanied by a surprisingly rich new texture. The first single "Light Years Away" provides a great introduction to the album, alongside several other high energy offerings, like the anthemic "Pyrrhic Victoria", "Wormhole Wizards" and "Premonition".

Bought this yesterday, really like it. Seems more like his earlier stuff - think Extremist or maybe even Crystal Planet (IMHO his best album). The mix is good and interaction with the rest of the band also is good. Quite a diverse set of tracks which keeps you interested, this is a welcome return to form for Joe.

I was fortunate enough to be present during rehearsal for this album (a few days before they went into record)... and the magic that was in the room has clearly transferred to the recording process.
Lots of diversity, great melodies, stunning fret work and tricks, and a whole new energy and vibe from the rest of the band.
Ignore the negative reviews, whether you're a Satch Fan or not this album has a great mix of tracks/styles to suit all and is well worth adding to your collection

Just went to see Joe at the Symphony Hall in Birmingham and he played most of the tracks from the new album. And I can see why, they are brilliant live. I was blown away in particular by Pyrrhic Victoria, Light Years Away, Premonition and Wormhole Wizards. Littleworth Lane needs a few more listens, not my style. The keyboards add a new dimension which I hope he continues with. I can't believe this guy does it album after album. Totally inspirational.

Melodically very strong. Catchy even
My first impression on listening to this album was that it had a slightly overproduced feel to it. Slightly more contrived maybe. Read more

More laid back relaxed songs
I love a Satch album, but I'm finding it difficult to like this one. The riffs are too similar throughout the tracks and I feel it needs a couple of tracks with a bit more bite. Read more

It ain't heavy
It's great to read all the different opinions on this album, but to say it's not very good quite frankly is a little silly. Read more

Satriani is on top !
Well, I have always thought that Satriani is not only a guitar virtuoso but also a great (and in certain circles underrated) composer. Read more

The master
This is one of the best Joe Satriani albums that I have heard. Something for everyone, some tracks very melodic, but all showing the real talent of the man.
