I Would Love To- Again, not a bad song in itself, but it just sounds a lot like the eariler tracks.

The female vocals in this song are very effective. The song itself is great, especially when he whips out his wah pedal. The Audience Is Listening- Another of the best songs on the album, Steve's sense of humour becomes apparent here, just listen to the lyrics. This certainly seems to be the case with this song, the tempo has slowed down, and Steve has laid aside his insane shredding for some more melodic playing. 5/5įor The Love Of God- I read somewhere that Steve tries to always make his 7th track on his albums more 'spiritual'. This is one of my favourite songs on the album, because it is different. The song is just Steve's guitar and an Eventide H3000 Harmonizer. Steve's guitar sounds more like a harp or a keyboard. 5/5īalllerina- There are some great things in this song. At 5:07, some vocals come in, saying the Plege Of Allegiance. There is some great stuff happening here. The Riddle- This track is another one that is one of the best on the album. Again, the bass is great, and the drumming is a tad nicer than the last track. 4/5Īnswers- Slightly funkier than the last two tracks, especially at the start. Towards the middle, Vai does some good stuff with a wah pedal. By itself, this song is great, but after the previous song, it can get a bit boring. The Animal- A bit heavier than the last track. There are also some wierd effects in the song that add to it ver well.

Stu on bass does some nice slapping and popping as well. Immediatly, from 20 seconds into the song, Vai starts shredding. 2.5/5Įrotic Nightmares- One of the best tracks on the album. Liberty- This song is very american and patrotic sounding, a nice opener, but not really a great song in itself. It is a little inaccessible to those niether into heavy metal, or the guitar, but if you are into either, then this album is a great buy. The album is based on dreams that Steve had when he was a teenager. P&W has been called one of the most important guitar albums by many critics. The album went Gold, not bad for an album with next to no lyrics. Immediatly upon it's realease, Steve Vai was certified as one of the current best guitarists around. Passion and Warfare was Steve Vai's second solo album.
