"WAGNER'S WAR" CD Review in Heavy Metal Universe
Fred Boschet, Heavy Metal Universe
 

"The Great Kat - Wagner's War. The CD starts with Wagner's Ride of the Valkyrie totally speed up and energized, the perfect song to go to war, just like in that Oscars awarded movie: Apocalypse Now."

The Great Kat's "Wagner's War" CD
The Great Kat - Wagner's War
style : hyperspeed
reviewer : Fred label : Blood&Guts/TPR Music

The American guitar prodigy is back with a new CD to express her rage and her battle cry in reaction to the 9/11 bombing. It's a true fact that these bombing have generated a lot of patriotic feelings and vocations worldwide especially among American people and musicians are no exceptions. The CD starts with Wagner's Ride of the Valkyrie totally speed up and energized, the perfect song to go to war, just like in that Oscars awarded movie: Apocalypse Now. The following titles are pure Great Kat style songs before closing the show with two other rearranged classical songs from Liszt and Sarasate. The style has slightly evolved since Beethoven On Speed, more mature, more orchestrations, especially in the rearranged musical songs that gives some more strength and impact to her hyperspeed that she know call shred/classical. In fact, it will be great to hear theses songs with a fully real orchestration, not a partially orchestra completed by samples. Finally, this album is a little bit a condensed mix between her two first records: the classical music transcriptions remind Beethoven On Speed while the others makes me think to Worship Me Or Die, especially War with its KILL! KILL! KILL! The only regret that we can have with this album is that it lasts no more that 11 minutes and 6 seconds.that's short and we'd like to hear some more.That's always been my concern when listening to Kat's CDs.
