    I could watch this guy play for 24 hours straight. He is unique. Despite everything he has done in his career, with Extreme or in other projects, I always thought that we didn't have enough of him. We don't have enough material from him and it's sad. Guys that talented should release way more music and I would buy every fucking cd he would release, and buy ticket of any fucking show as long as he's on the stage. Musicians like him are rare. He is not only an outstanding guitarist, he is much more than that. A pure artist.

    Another gem of Nuno's is his solo album Schizophonic. He sings and he riffs. These songs meant a lot to me. They seem very personal, it's an emotional album, especially towards the end.
    The track "Note On The Screen Door". Like several songs on this album, the intro and the verse are creative. Maybe not the Nuno we are used to. Kind of alternative, kind of indie. However, if you make it past the intro and a couple verses, you get to the magic in this song. To the chorus. Big open riff, poppy, hard edge, kinda pop punk, and his vocals are rad, and the lyrics are emotional. He comes home, to a note on the screen door. I imagine it to be a relationship lost, gone to the dust bin of history. A crush that leaves you behind.
    At 1 mins 23 seconds in to the song, he is still in the slow indie verse, and he says: "to a cold steel edge...and cutsss...cuts like a razor goodbye". Chorus explodes: "SEE YAH, LAYTAH, SEE YAH, laytah....., it's been nice knowin' YOUOUU". It's fucking awesome. 2nd stanza, pre-chorus verse finishing at 2 mins 24 seconds: "into my despair..., and shatterrrs...., like a BROKEN STREET LIGHT, GOOD BYE GOOD BYE" Chorus: "SEE YAH, LAYTAH, SEE YAH, laytah....., it's been nice knowin' YOUOUU"
    Don't miss it :) ua-cam.com/video/oON4lMNGGeQ/v-deo.html

      This is exciting, lol. Yay! Go get it :)
      If you still have some strength in you after the Schizophonic sharp turn left...you have to, oh please for the love of god, have to check out the one Dramagods album he did. I link to the track Megaton below in another comment. This album is very special, not avilable on Spotify, but here and on Soundcloud.
      Have fun! The very incredible, wonderfully nostalgic and mystrerious catalog of Nuno Bettencourt music...is alive and well, thru connections on the web :) All the Best, Amy --

      They mixed everything, including very 'aware' and 'political' lyrics/songs. Most hair bands sang about excess, Extreme criticized it.

      It was horrible mix of the imperfect storm. Grunge was getting massively big and Extreme’s two biggest hits were More Than Words and Whole Hearted. Great tunes for sure, but just the tip of the iceberg of what Pornografitti SHOULD have been. It seems like they missed the window by 2-3 years. Either way, I’ll ALWAYS love these guys.
