ZAFFIRO – Surrender Absolute (NEW*US WHITE HARD ROCK /AOR ‘92*BLOODGOOD AXEMAN)
Retroactive Records 2020 -
Brandnew limited US White Hard Rock / AOR - Rerelease from 1992
ABOUT THE ALBUM
Some things really take us by surprise. We just don’t see them
coming. We don’t expect what our eyes
actually see, and it makes the experience absolutely mesmerizing - like the
moment in Terminator 2 when you realize Arnold Scharzenegger is a Terminator, but
the GOOD GUY! Or, the moment when your
loved one says, “Go ahead honey - buy them all - we can never have too much
music!” Or, the fiery moment the next morning when you remember you ate some
hot peppers the night before - uh - well, maybe not that so much, but you get
the point! Tantalizing surprises are the spice of life, and boy oh boy does
Bloodgood guitarist David Zaffiro give us four elite reasons to be dazzled and
delighted with his solo albums. Known for his renown axemanship with the iconic
Christian metal band, Bloodgood, Zaffiro treated fans to four of the finest AOR
/ Hard Rock albums ever released in the Christian rock scene. Indeed, these
albums are far from the metallic juggernauts he played on with Bloodgood (their
first three albums). But each of these four albums is essential ear candy for
even the most discriminating rock music connoisseur. One listen and you realize
the padlocks were cut loose from this master guitarist’s hands and you have
been magically ushered into glorious riffing with feeling, with intensity, with
skill and precision. The lyrics are filled with hope, conviction, and
transparency - including life lessons and insights free of lectures or
preachyness. And, the instrumental tracks remind us of three important words: WOW
WOW WOW. Great words, right? The instrumental tracks show Zaffiro with all
the skill and talent of Joe Satriani and Steve Vai. Yes, it’s that good! That brings us to the most tantalizing
surprise of all - Zaffiro’s vocals! With
one of rock and metal’s finest vocalists in Les Carlsen leading Bloodgood, we
could have never guessed there was a world-class vocalist hiding in Zaffiro’s
slight frame - but it’s absolutely perfect for AOR, rock, and hard rock. These
four Zaffiro CD reissues are international treasures with the finest of
musicians filling them out from top to bottom.
All have been digitally remastered and include eight-page inserts with
lyrics packaged in jewel cases. If you
slept on these classics in the past, now is the time to make things right -
these are top-shelf reissues for collectors who care about quality of packaging
and sound. Get all four CD remasters
now!

WHAT OTHERS ARE SAYING
ABOUT DAVID ZAFFIRO SOLO ALBUMS
"Nobody Knows" (from Yesterday’s Left Behind) is the best song
Zaffiro has ever produced....with words that are deep, profound and very
convicting. It’s one of the sweetest little guitar riffs any musician has ever
played.
Cross Rhythms
Magazine
Zaffiro's amazing speed and the superb cleanness of his style will be a
great delight to anyone who really appreciates truly excellent electric guitar
playing.
Rex Carroll -
Whitecross & Rex Carroll Band
Zaffiro’s songs are laced with plenty of hooks....drawing the listener
in and making the listening experience more enjoyable. David is one of the
better vocalists in the metal industry.
Christian
Molten Metal Bands Reviews
"I See Red" (from The Other Side) takes off to an edgy metal
flavored guitar riff that quickly propels it to a chorus with a good catchy
hook. Zaffiro is once again on top of things with several seconds of spirited
lead guitar work.
Angelica Warlord Reviews
The AOR format allows Zaffiro to add more flash in the guitar
work...something that he did only sparingly with Bloodgood.
Scott Waters / NoLifeTilMetal
The Other Side closes with “Spirit of the Lord” ....an atmospheric song
with haunting piano frills....
