While a very different supporting cast joins Michael Schenker on Unforgiven, this 1999 collection of hard-rocking numbers and swirling guitar solos echoes the return to classic M.S.G. form first accomplished on 1996's Written in the Sand. As the guitarist proved decades ago, there's no mystical chemistry, no mysteriously unifying combination of talents necessary for Schenker to kick out the old-school heavy metal jams with verve and style. Great songwriting? Well, that's another story, but Schenker's appeal was always his energetic guitar performances and rich tone -- of which there is plenty of on Unforgiven. Highlights include the old-time metal riffing on "Fat City N.O." and "Pilot of Your Soul," but there's plenty more where these satisfying throwbacks came from, as each number confidently delivers on the promise of Schenker's talent. Ex-Baton Rouge vocalist Kelly Keeling maintains a strong presence with his Coverdale growling that while excessive, manages to stay out of Schenker's way. The two make a good pair, confident, stylized and unapologetically grounded in their '80s roots. Anyone who is at all inclined to buy traditional metal discs from the masters 20 years removed from their best work should consider Unforgiven, a satisfyingly nostalgic and muscular recording. ~ Vincent Jeffries

Average Rating: (4 out of 5 stars) 4 stars

5 stars Simply Amazing!
Absolutely dark and haunting, just as one should have expected from an album of this title. The "not-so- clean" mix may not appeal to some, but I liked the garage band-y feel that it gave the album. Michael's guitar work, both acoustic and electric, is incredible. He never ceases to amaze me with his versatility.

2 stars THIS IS NOT REAL M.S.
Ý've bought this cd with great expectations as a M.S. fan for i don't know how many years, but this cd is really bad, vocals are so weak, guitar work is poor and also the mixing is disturbing, ý can't really hear the guitar lines so clearly. M.S. is no doubt one of the best guitarists but this cd must be an exception

5 stars Good CD and great playing!
A bit more moody and dark than "Written In Sand" with more gritty vocals. I do like this CD and there are some really good songs here. Kelly Keeling does a good job as vocalist here but I'm not sure if he is the best choice Schenker could have for a front man. Schenker produces a fine piece of work with killer riffs and cool changes that keep it interesting. He has such a cool way to make things sound unique but never really straying too from what has made him a rock legend and a great talent. With Shane Gaalaas on drums - look out! Man is this guy good!!
