I really like this band... although I don't understand Japanese. I really like the solo of this song.

I like Graham Bonnet from Alcatrazz and Rainbow.

I like Jason Becker (from Cacophony, his solo work, and from David Lee Roth).

The end of this instrumental sounds very different from the beginning.

The album called: Abstract Logic by Shawn Lane and Jonas Hellborg is really cool fusion.
But at the moment I am returning to Iron Fire with the great song: Ironhead, check it out!
Hail from Denmark! good speed metal.
Wish they come to my place. But as long as I have internet connection I can listen to such a groove so I don't care they don't visit my country.
