View Full Version : hey - anyone listen to yngwie malmsteen? Enzed 03-03-2004, 02:22 PM Where's a good place to start? http://www.metal-guide.com/jpegsclas/malmsteen.jpg patrick 03-03-2004, 02:25 PM start anywhere. it's all the same, more-or-less. which is fantastic if you like guitar thunder i can send you some live mp3s sometime if you want sledge 03-03-2004, 02:25 PM I don't listen to him, but I know people who do and they are always telling me to listen to 'alchemy'. the 03-03-2004, 02:36 PM hahhahahahaa oh. shit. Isle 03-03-2004, 03:01 PM he's a fat fuck, but he sure he can shred. i wanna die 03-03-2004, 03:20 PM ew, trilogy...my first (and last) malmsteem album Enzed 03-03-2004, 03:32 PM I'll see what I can pick up cheap. scouse_dave 03-04-2004, 02:20 AM i don't rate malmsteen at all. he needs to learn what a 'tune' is.. ZackZ 03-04-2004, 11:10 AM Rising Force is his best album. Some of the best riffs of all time. Too bad hardly anyone can play them. His new album, Attack! is really good. It is completely different than any album he has done before. His singer isn't so falsetto (Dougie White) and the production is really raw and "live" sounding. He is at the top of his game as far as shredding goes as well. Stand out tracks (all albums): Little Savage Far Beyond the Sun Evil Eye Black Star I Am a Viking Valhalla Disciples of Hell Razor Eater Alchemy is an ok album. Some of the vocal melodies are a little strange, but the shredding is top notch. It's a really long album and I don't think you can get it other than an import. Malmsteen kind of tried to get too commercial sounding after Trilogy. I have the Malmsteen Collection VHS and a few of the music vidoes on there are beyond cheese. It's like he was trying to immitate a third rate Poison. So, in essence, early Malmsteen: good. Mid-period malmsteen, not good unless you like cheesey hair metal. Later malmsteen: good if you like heavy metal with super fast solos. Mason R Butler 03-04-2004, 11:20 AM UNLEASH THE FOOKIN FURY! sledge 03-04-2004, 03:21 PM Does Malmsteen ever do acoustic stuff? I once downloaded a song with him shredding on an acoustic guitar. patrick 03-04-2004, 03:42 PM Originally posted by sledge Does Malmsteen ever do acoustic stuff?

Ya he plays the acoustic once in a while. If he ever plays Black Star live, he'll do an extended acoustic intro. Although acoustic technique is not all that great, it is still better than most. sledge 03-04-2004, 07:07 PM Originally posted by ZackZ Ya he plays the acoustic once in a while.

I've been listening to the songs I got and I really like them. I prefer his acoustic playing to his electric playing. It seems more...I don't know, richer. killer_tomato 03-04-2004, 07:25 PM best track = "hello" seriously, i don't think he ever topped that one |
