Rather mixed ... 4

I expected this album with some impatience to see what musical direction was well able to take one of my favorite guitarists ...
It generally takes the sound used in the previous album ("strange beautiful music"), but still a little heavier (especially at the beginning of the album)!
The compositions are not very original (I would even say that this album is one of the most monotonous and boring that he composed), without being unpleasant to listen to.
Securities that leave the batches are, for me, "Searching" (a piece of 10min), and "Bamboo".
The 2 rides of the album ("Is there love in space" and "just look up") are frankly boring.
It even surprises to resume melodies of his old albums (the beginning of the chorus of "if i could fly" is very similar to that of "the traveler" from the previous album ...).
In short, this album is nice, but definitely not original.
If you want découvrire Joe Satriani, do not start with this album ...
