Gold Digger:
I love speed classic metal songs! I think that songs like this one can perfectly describe my songwriting style.
Not Connected:
A mid-tempo song inspired by Loudness atmospheres (my favourite band!).
Que Es La Vida
This is probably one of the best and inspired songs Tony and I never wrote together !
Early Warning:
An epic and classical song (Dio oriented...) perfect to open a live show.
Fool Paradise:
Another speed song very personal and unusual...
Tutmosis IV-Tarantula:
They are two instrumental songs: the first is a keyboard intro of Dario Patti with some kind of Arabic and Eastern atmosphere. Tarantula instead is a neoclassic instrumental for guitar, very technical and based on speedy rhythms.
Anno Mundi:
That's a Black Sabbath masterpiece that I chose because when I was in the beginning of my adventure in metal, I used to listen to this song from "Tyr" thinking: "I'll never be able to have such a wonderful singer!". Then I met Tony and the dream became true! I took the occasion and I made this "big" version of this song where Tony Martin gave his best!
Disfunctional Kid:
A great example of compromise between speed metal and melodic metal songs!
Mourning Star:
A big epic atmosphere, very interesting in its classical appeal.
Trouble Just Keeps Coming:
This a fascinating melodic metal song, a little bit AOR but with big metal sound!
The Closest Thing To Heaven:
An epic metal song with a little bit of experimental elements, very guitar-hero oriented...
Memories In The Sand:
I'm really proud of this slow instrumental full of feeling, dedicated to the nostalgia of passed persons, loves and years. I tried to blend my metal style with a bluesy feeling that my first love among guitar players, David Gilmour "used" to make me falling in love with music.
Tarot Warrior:
This song was born one day I decided to play a riff having in mind John Sykes's Whitesnake... but every time I try to make a song sounding like some other guitarist, then always a true Giuntini's style song is born! And nobody complains: "Ohh... this song seems like this or that that guitarist style!....It's a typical Giuntini's song!" That's really a good one!!
