As far as impressive musical resumes go, few can match the one belonging to American guitarist, writer, arranger and producer Steve Lukather. As a founding member of AOR superstars Toto he's shifted a tidy 35 million records, but it's his work as a session musician that really catches the eye, contributing to over 1500 albums by the likes of Aretha Franklin, Roger Waters, Paul McCartney, Elton John and Miles Davis. As well as playing most of the guitar parts on a certain Michael Jackson album called 'Thriller'. He's also released a string of genre hopping solo albums, with his recent output displaying deeply personal, emotionally charged songwriting following the breakdown of his marriage, his mothers death and numerous nasty business wrangles. 'Transition' continues that introspective trend, but this time there's hope amidst the pain as the album moves from lost and angry to resigned and hopeful. Whilst not as musically thrilling as 2008's 'Ever Changing Times' or 2010's 'All's Well That Ends Well', 'Transition' is more song centric and focussed, whilst still delivering a cornucopia of styles that encompasses scorned blues grooves, lush soundscapes, prog dexterity, jazzy flourishes and his trademark melodic rock sensibilities.

It is not very often that listening to a new album makes you want to cry, dance and brawl at the same time, but The Virginmarys’ 'King of Conflict' does just that. It is like getting caught in a ruckus that leaves you with a bloody nose, a smile on your face and a rush to the head.
