Album Review

You never quite know what style of guitar playing is going to greet you when you put on a new Paul Gilbert disc, as he's tackled blues, pop, and acoustic pieces in the past. But on his 2008 release, Silence Followed by a Deafening Roar, Gilbert focuses on what made him such a renowned player among guitar shredders worldwide in the first place, as he totally focuses on his soloing and riffing capabilities (and goes "all instrumental," to boot). It may be 2008, but such tunes as the album-opening title track and "Eudaimonia Overture" could have easily come out in 1988, and probably would have caught the attention of every Guitar for the Practicing Musician subscriber at the time. And there are even a few tranquil moments ("Bronx 1971") and oddities (the piano-led "The Gargoyle") thrown in for good measure. Paul Gilbert remains one of rock guitar's top gymnasts, as evidenced throughout Silence Followed by a Deafening Roar.

I'm sure Paul Gilbert read your comment and thought to himself, "He's right! This guy who nobody has ever heard gave me a good length of yarn for thought. Dandy! Thanks mate!" Maybe he'll track you down and hire you to coach him on how to write guitar instrumentals the correct way. Were you listening to Street Lethal in 1984? I doubt it.

Holy crap!!!! i just heard this guy today cause i was looking at my genious sidebar and he cam up so i clicked one of his songs and it blew my mind!!!!! I like this guitar stuff like Dragonforce, Slayer, Metallica, Gun's n' Roses, and Eric Clapton, now he's one of my favorites!

Spectacular in Every Way!!!
     
by Phil in Drummer

This album is simply amazing and his best work yet!!! Not only is it a guitar masterpiece offered up by Paul Gilbert, but the drums and the rest of the band are smokin'. This work of art has solid rock sound with an undeniable sprinkle of funk, soul and the blues, which makes this album amazingly musical. The syncopation is tight, fast and exciting. This album is a must have if you are a musician and a better have if you are not. Great job Paul Gilbert! How in the hell are you going to top this one???
