Details:
With soaring Satriani-like guitar leads and imaginative keyboards suggesting a cross between Tangerine Dream and Dream Theater, Bill Majoros' 2002 album (digitally remastered in September 2003), "Sleepless in Pompeii" is sure to inspire anyone who appreciates the newer melodic rock instrumental genre. As he navigates seamlessly from rock to new age, through blues and back to rock again, Majoros' fluid compositional and improvisational styles never lose the listener in gratuitous technical displays, nor fail to dish out the catchy hooks that make this style of rock both sonically engaging and eminently hummable.

"Majoros has a knack for writing music that shapes the mood without drawing too much attention to itself...a solid guitarist capable of composing sellable music...Sleepless in Pompeii is a success."
-Score Music Magazine

"He's been called a young Joe Satriani and after hearing the latest from guitarist Bill Majoros it's clear he's blazing a musical trail all his own. With inventive playing and arrangements...Majoros further establishes himself as a guitarist on the rise"
-20th Century Guitar Magazine, March 2003
