4 stars Haven't been to the Angel Vivaldi page for so long that I didn't notice that he finally got an expanded discography! Don't be fooled by his classification as tech/extreme, as he is at his heart a neo-classical shredder influenced by the likes of Joe Satriani, only plays much heavier and denser (there is a second guitarist in tow). The all-instrumental songs are naturally all about the incredible solos, but at the same time I wouldn't call it aimless shredding, as his compositions do have certain hooks, recurring themes and flow (at least maybe starting from this mini-album on). And on this EP one can also find among the dense shredding some clean breaks and even a power ballad of sorts. The guy is pretty cool.
