YNGWIE MALMSTEEN: Sheffield Video Footage Posted Online

July 22, 2008

Fan-filmed video footage of legendary Swedish guitarist Yngwie Malmsteen performing the song "Dreaming (Tell Me)" on July 13, 2008 in Sheffield, England can be viewed below (clip uploaded by YouTube user "thefirstwizard").

According to HMV Japan, Yngwie Malmsteen will release his new studio album in Japan on August 27. The LP's limited edition will feature the high-fidelity SHM-CD format (fully compatible with standard CD players) plus a bonus DVD containing interviews with Yngwie Malmsteen discussing the songs on the album and more.

Yngwie Malmsteen recently told Guitar World magazine that his forthcoming solo album will feature his strongest lineup ever: Tim "Ripper" Owens (BEYOND FEAR, ex-JUDAS PRIEST, ICED EARTH) on vocals, Bjorn Englen on bass, Michael Troy on keyboards, and Patrik Johansson on drums. "It's going to come down like a fucking atom bomb!" Malmsteen said. "We've already recorded 39 songs. I went full out. I've got strings from Istanbul, and the drums are the heaviest I've fucking heard. Ripper conveys the lyrics I write like no one else. I'll write something like 'divide and conquer' and when Ripper sings it, it really comes out that way. It's like Sparta!"

Yngwie is inviting fans to join him at Fender University on August 21-24, 2008 at the home of Fender guitars in Corona, California. Yngwie will attend Fender University as a "visiting professor" where he'll spend time with students playing guitar, talking technique, and sharing stories from the incredible life of the guitar legend.
