		Marty Friedman was the lead guitarist for the thrash metal band Megadeth for a period of almost twelve years (1988 to 2000).
		It was during this period that Megadeth's musical style became less aggro, and more melodic, which Friedman claims to be due, at least partly, to his creative influence.
		Friedman's style is quite unique, and easily recongisable to those familiar with it.

	Marty Friedman - Dragon's Kiss
		Marty met Jason Becker before any contracts were signed and was so impressed by the then sixteen year old's guitar playing that he asked Jason to join him in a band which was later called Cacophony.
		Marty never tended to use effects such as delay, and the confusion is purely created through unbelievable harmonising of guitars.
		I feel that Marty is a genius like no other guitarist in the respects that he is capable of doing such amazing harmonies, but even Marty only recorded a few such sections, (all in the 1987 to 1988 albums), due to the obvious level of commitment and difficulty in getting it to sound right.

		Marty : - I'm not terribly religious, but sometimes music is so beautiful that it confirms the existence of a God.
		Marty : - Jason is a friend, musical partner, genius and an inspiration to me. I pray for a cure to ALS so we can jam again soon.

		Friedman this time sets his sights on a more flavor of progressive rock that integrates many of the other elements from his other experimental excursions.

	Marty Friedman : Entertaining Comments (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		I personally think this album is a great introduction to Marty Friedman, it successfully displays his new influences in his rhythm playing which is much more rock based than his metal works in the early 90s, but yet he still clearly has that vintage soloing style from the 90s, my favorite part about...
		Displaying Marty's great usage of exotic note selections, his unique phrasing style, and an assortment of great chops, this is no "shred to death" album that...
		marty friedman is always a guitar genious, this album had lot of melodic stuff just like his previous release but also got some hardrock tune, rock box is my fav track

	Marty Friedman - Dragon's Kiss
		Credo che a questa domanda risponderebbero in pochi, almeno tra i cultori del Metal in generale, visto che qua stiamo parlando di uno dei chitarristi più influenti usciti dalla seconda metà degli anni '80 in poi.
		Devo ammettere che per certi versi l'album di Marty è leggermente inferiore a quello di Jason, ma si tratta di piccole imperfezioni, o forse solo una questione di gusti personali.
		Marty ha il vizio di utilizzare gli sweep in sottofondo, come base per le canzoni, un muro di note che si contrappongono alla semplicità della melodia portante.

		Quindi un periodo di forte crisi per Marty, addirittura lessi da qualche parte che sarebbe arrivato al punto di volersi tagliare i capelli e momentaneamente mettere da parte la musica, per trovarsi un lavoro "serio".
		Se non sbaglio, risulta essere anche l'album più venduto di Marty, trascinato in alto dal mastodontico successo di "Countdown To Extinction" dei Megadeth.
		Marty poi si prende il lusso di ospitare in fase di produzione (solo nei primi quattro brani) Kitaro, famosissimo compositore New Age giapponese, che contribuirà non poco alla riuscita dell'album.

		Themes are not just introduced and abandoned in favor of gratuitous technical noodling, rather the compositions are thoughtfully explored and brought to a natural conclusion.
		Friedman could easily put down his guitar in favor of a pen, as it is his gift of composition that differentiates him from his peers.

		Marty Friedman is een zeer bekende naam in de wereld van de langharige hoofdschudders, door onder andere zijn werk bij Cacophony (met Jason Becker) en natuurlijk Megadeth.
		Een fel oranje zelfklever op de voorkant van de cd deelt je mee dat dit album de reden is waarom Marty Friedman Megadeth heeft verlaten.
		Dat de gitarist ook het klassieke werk niet schuwt laat hij horen in het ultra korte 0-7-2, om vervolgens in Salt In The Wound weer helemaal los te gaan.
