*"On the record Patrick did all the guitar and bass parts and he also was the responsible for the Synth and Drum Programming, in other words he did all the album by himself what is really cool to see that he was able to compose and create arrangements for the whole instruments. Patrick is definitely a great player and I think his songs will get some good recognition, so it worths listening!"
(Guitar Clinic Review Guitar Clinic.net & www.guitarclinic.com.br (Portuguese))

*"The truth of the matter is that what Patrick is saying makes perfect sense. Besides being an awesome musician, Patrick is one of the most down to earth guys you will ever get to read about."

* "Freefall Faith Firestorm is a highly entertaining album displaying a guitar player who is blessed with some great chops. His playing is highly accessible & dare I say, commercial thanks to his focus within all the songs on melody. Playing wise he has the swagger of Slash & the rocking fineness of Joe Perry all topped off with the schooled techniques of Joe Satriani."

* "The track is focused on structure & melody. It can be tempting in instrumental songs to put the focus on technique (yours is great by the way) rather than melody. Cool musicianship that feels mature and creates a good mood."
(TAXI on the FFF song "War Party")

* „Lo cierto es que si desean oír un buen instrumental, donde la guitarra es la protagonista, pero sin buscar ir a dos mil por hora de puro riff, esta es mas que una buena chance de hacerlo.“
(Lucas Gordon/www.mundorock.org)

* "Interessante lavoro per Patrick Vega che ci presenta questo suo esordio formato da otto songs che spaziano dal rock americano al funk. Lo stile di Vega ci ricorda molto il primo Satriani. Si parte con la rockeggiante Camael per poi proseguire nell'interessante My Demons dove Patrick sforna le sue doti da vero shredder! Da mensionare le tracce più interessanti come No One, una power-ballad con bellissime melodie ben azzeccate e la finale The Big Lion sorretta da un bel riff rock-metal. Patrick vuole accentuare che il tutto è stato prodotto in camera da letto dallo stesso Vega, ma oramai non è più una novità, se un artista ha delle buone idee e le capacità tecniche non mancano si potrebber produrre un disco professionale anche in bagno! Troppo esagerato? Ok, allora accaparratevi questo album!"

*"This new album shows his great talent and excellent guitar performance overall. Amazingly, there are no boring moments. Mostly done and performed instrumentally by Vega on his premiere debut album, he carefully prepares various guitar-oriented music with nice music sensibility and good dynamics."

* "Vega's debut album...hasn't left my stereo since I got it. Tuned down guitars are jamming heavy riffs, catchy lead lines, drenched wah melodies & jaw dropping solos. The album never loses clear sight of melody, feel & groove & almost comes across like a movie soundtrack to Vega's musician life in LA. From vintage clean to over the edge Nu-Metal distortion, FFF has it all & more in one distinct - up to date - in your face package."
(Steve Klein/Guitarobsession Magazine)

* „That guy can shred with the best of them but he doesn’t stick it in your forehead with a fork. You know it’s there but it’s smooth & unforced.“
(Rob Gemmler/Studio Force)

* "This album is different than anything else outthere. Go ahead compare it. The vision of FFF was to create something unique...very modern, heavy, guitaristically & artistically interesting yet accessible & enjoyable. I can go off on my guitar like a self obsessed maniac an album's worth easily, but that's done to death we've already heard that. FFF is so much more. It's open & alternate tunings, life-inspired songwriting & lots of honesty, heart & vibe. Listen to FFF & you will feel it & you will enjoy my vision & ask for more."

* It’s all about visuals and emotions. Lyrics or instrumental..doesn’t matter..it hit’s the spot when it touches you. I have a very colorful imagination; always had. See that beach there in the distance? I can smell the salt.."
