Our Take

Ah, Joe Satriani, the guitar virtuoso who never fails to astonish us with his otherworldly shredding abilities. His latest album, "Shapeshifting," sees the maestro continue to push the boundaries of instrumental rock with his signature blend of technical prowess and melodic sensibility.

From the thunderous opener "Nineteen Eighty" to the ethereal beauty of "Ali Farka, Dick Dale, an Alien and Me," Satriani takes us on a sonic journey that is as mesmerising as it is exhilarating. His ability to weave intricate guitar lines with a sense of melody and emotion is truly unparalleled, and "Shapeshifting" showcases this skill in abundance.

Tracks like "All For Love" and "Spirits, Ghosts and Outlaws" demonstrate Satriani's versatility as a musician, with the former showcasing his knack for crafting infectious hooks and the latter delving into darker, more atmospheric territory.

Overall, "Shapeshifting" is a triumph for Satriani, showcasing his continued evolution as an artist while staying true to the sound that has made him a household name. Whether you're a die-hard fan or a newcomer to his music, this album is sure to captivate and inspire in equal measure. So, grab your air guitar and prepare to be dazzled by the master himself.
