Editorial Reviews

It moves, it swings, it rocks!
Satriani and his touring band, who all recorded remotely in separate areas of the world during lockdown, deliver an album-length journey that never dulls. The Elephants of Mars crackles with an exciting new energy, briskly traveling through stylistic roads that feel freshly updated, viewed through new eyes.

The guitarist had an aim to create a “new standard” when it came to crafting an instrumental guitar record. He strove to openly challenge himself to move away from what he describes as “the classic rock” tone of the past few albums he’s put out, replacing that with a new platform of his own design. “I do want to show people that the instrumental guitar album can contain far more complexity of creative elements than I think people are using right now.”

From the gripping, sci-fi madness of “Through A Mother’s Day Darkly,” to the isolation felt in a decaying urban landscape, as depicted in “Sahara”, to the general endorphin levels that peak as the elephants finally roar in the title track, The Elephants of Mars will stampede across your mind, leaving a sonic imprint that doesn’t fade.

Thanks to the pandemic removing all time constraints, The Elephants of Mars truly represents the album that Satriani himself hoped he could deliver with his band. And ultimately, The Elephants of Mars stands as one of the most intriguing and interesting albums of Satriani’s career.

“We did everything. We tried the craziest ideas. And we entertained every notion we had about turning something backwards, upside down, seeing what could happen.&rdquo.

Fantastic new album for postponed touring!

Fantastic new album for postponed touring!
VERIFIED AMAZON PURCHASE: [Last purchased Apr 9, 2022.]Joe brings another great, diverse set of songs, and his technique, energy, and vision are burning bright. The great Kenny Aronoff plays drums, and Bryan Beller is powerfully excellent on bass, with engineering and production by Eric Caudieux.The whole album could be a soundtrack for a visually stunning science fiction film."Sailing the Seas of Ganymede" and "Blue Foot Groovy" are among my favorite tracks. The ballads "Faceless," "Memory Lane," and "Desolation" all feature poignant, beautiful melodies. "Dance of the Spores" is in waltz time, and ends with a sample of what sounds like a merry-go-round and a children's choir. "Through a Mother's Day Darkly" is an intense science fiction song that includes a spoken-word vocal with a visit from Crystal Planet.*** *** ***The CD case is tri-fold cardboard, no jewel case. In the center pocket are seven two-sided cards, one side for each of the 14 songs, with great artwork including a letter for each one in what may be a Martian language.NOVEMBER 2022 UPDATEI finally saw Joe live in ATL on November 7! Great show, featuring several songs from this album, several from "Shapeshifting" (2020), and of course several from his best album "Surfing With the Alien" (1987).Don't miss him live, and don't miss this album!
