The record is set to arrive on 8 April 2022, via earMUSIC. Satriani said in a press release that he challenged himself to create a “new standard” for instrumental guitar albums, as he explains: “I want to show people that an instrumental guitar album can contain far more creative and entertaining elements than I think people are using right now.”
The album was recorded with Satriani’s band remotely, when the pandemic nixed his touring plans and forced him to take a “workingman’s holiday.” According to Satriani, this environment removed all of the time constraints from the project: “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,” he said.
