Album was done during the grunge era. There were some cool bands but grunge took away the musicianship and made guitar solos out of fashion. It's a shame 'cos I love to hear Nuno shred. He's a very tasteful player. They started slagging shredders off during this era because it was the in thing to do. It's sad when there's no original thought and people just follow trends and not their own taste.
That's a really interesting and thoughtful comment, refreshing for UA-cam! Although I agree with you, I personally prefer guitar solos that are more refined, a sort of less is more approach, so this album is by far and away my favourite amongst Nuno's work. It's a beautiful combination of two worlds, one which is too basic and raw for my taste and one which is overly saccharine, so it balances out about right for me.
