Yngwie Malmsteen releases new song from upcoming album “Parabellum”
“Parabellum” will be released on July 23 via Music Theories Recordings/Mascot Label Group. Only four of the songs on the album feature vocals.
Yngwie Malmsteen states: “Si Vis Pacem from upcoming new album “Parabellum” is a piece of great difficulty. Octave arpeggios it is very satisfying to apply this extremely challenging violin technique to my own composition. Starting in B harmonic minor, it transposes to D natural major and then into F# Phrygian. It is a natural flow within the chord progression of relative keys and modes. It was very challenging and exciting to perform this piece and I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.”
The album title “Parabellum” is Latin, translating as “Prepare For War”. “There’s a track on the album called ‘(Si Vis Pacem) Parabellum’,” Yngwie said. “This translates as ‘If you want peace, then prepare for war.’ It was a last-minute decision to make this the album title. But I think it fits very well.” Yngwie Malmsteen adds
