My Take

Axel Rudi Pell is the embodiment of European metal craftsmanship to me. Born in Bochum, he came up in the speed metal band Steeler before going solo under his own name in the late '80s, and has churned out melodic hard rock with a rotating cast of singers ever since. The detail I love is the stability inside the churn: Johnny Gioeli of Hardline has been his vocalist since 1998, an unusually loyal partnership in a genre full of lineup chaos. I think of him as a guitarist's guitarist, prolific and reliable, quietly building one of hard rock's most consistent solo catalogues.
