Review from Guitar9.com
Pictures Of A Dream is a fantastic home studio, instrumental guitar creation by Swedish guitarist/keyboardist/producer Mathias Holm. Holm rates Al Di Meola, Vinnie Moore and Mike Oldfield as his biggest influences, and his compositional style definitely favors Moore. Holm graces each cut on the CD with dizzying solos, Pentium-speed passages and the aggression and passion his energetic music deserves. Pictures Of A Dream features a total of sixteen (count 'em, sixteen!) instrumentals showcasing Holm's command of the guitar particularly "Voyage" and "Day Of Silence." Instrumental Guitar (Electric (Heavy)/Shred), total running time, 72:29

Mathias Holm
(Born 19701007)

Sweden is quite well-known for it..s many high quality-guitarists. Prepare yourself to add yet another high quality-bender to that list - MATHIAS HOLM.

Just don..t expect a full-time shredder that knows nothing about feeling and subtlety. Mathias has been brought up listening to players like Al Di Meola, Vinnie Moore and Mike Oldfield, giving him quite a broad perspective of influences. He picked up the six-string at the age of 13 and has with great self-determination and ambition though himself to handle the guitar with great skill.

In 1995 Mathias decided to put his songs on record and knowing how hard it is for an unknown solo-guitarist to get a deal, he decided to record the album on his own.
With the aid of drummer Mats Eriksson-Wigg he created the outstanding platter "Pictures Of A Dream" (he even made the cover himself).

Mathias has been compared to the likes of Vinnie Moore, Yngwie Malmsteen and Al Di Meola and when listening to Mathias album, you can..t but see why.
This is also why Japanese label Shinseido/Sound Treasures picked Mathias album as one of their first foreign releases.

Mathias mixes smooth, sensitive notes with fast fret-board runners in a highly intriguing mix. This and the fact that he has the ability write great listenable music makes him a respectable musician.

If someone gives this guy the break he deserves, he can go far, very far!

I haven't heart the new one yet but I'll probably buy it when I see them Oct. 2nd in Hamburg.

Do you have one of the Deluxe Collector's Edition Box Set and maybe the Silver ticket for great and meet - he,he?

Then you can see them Sept. 25th in Stockholm!

I heard James LaBrie's voice shall not be the same anymore - not that high as before. Is it true?

Hey Mathias honey

It's funny - here it is rain, rain and rain too and I'm listen to Dream Theater "Train of thought" 'Stream of consciousness' in this moment.

Isn't it magical?

Have a beautiful day and maybe tomorrow the gull comes against the rain.
