Some of the songs sounded like they had synthesizers in them, but rest assured, supposedly it's all him on his guitar. Though all of these songs are instrumentals, all are catchy & engaging. This CD isn't a 'welcome to my guitar recital', with one technically superb but boring track after another, this is a CD of weight & relevance. Doppler so impressed musicians like Stu Hamm, Billy Sheehan and Brad Gillis that they all make guest appearances on this debut CD.

The album seamlessly combines the grains & specks & flecks of what's good about nu metal with old metal & instrumentals, hence the title. Unfortunately, for his next endeavor, he envisions working with modern pop tards of the day, like Christina & whoever else will be trendy in a coupla years. Given that, buying this CD is a great idea, hurry & get 'em before they're gone!!

This is a CD that musicians will love, but even non-musical types won't find much to criticize on here.
