(Stereo Play, August 2015) "The string acrobat develops ... steadily his sound; this time orchestrated by John Cuniberti, who shaped the sound design of phenomenal early works like "Surfin With The Alien," and again achieves the qualities of style-defining early works." (Audio, August 2015) "Satriani is what's commonly called an 'exceptional guitarist'; he knows the coarsest riffs and all the quick tricks, seeking out congenial musicians and producers." (Rolling Stone, August 2015) "A guitar virtuoso revered by many of his peers, as on his last few albums he delivers melodic hard-rock instrumentals with massive grooves and, above all, Satriani's distorted guitar sound." (Stereo, September 2015)
