Yngwie Malmsteen Ruined His Career Says Ex-Singer
. (Classic Rock) Yngwie Malmsteen's former singer Michael Vescera has slammed the axeman saying he ruined his career by "burning bridges and pissing people off." He recorded two albums with the Swedish axeman: 1994's The Seventh Sign and 1995's Magnum Opus. And the vocalist says the guitarist blew his chance to be the best in the world because of the way he treated other people. Vescera is on a South American tour with former Accept frontman Udo Dirkschneider, ex Iron Maiden man Blaze Bayley and Tim 'Ripper' Owens, formerly of Judas Priest under the Metal Singers banner. Vescera says at a press conference to promote the tour in Brazil via RocknaMochila: "A lot of crazy stuff happened with Yngwie. But I think the main thing is Yngwie could have been the biggest guitarist in the world today, by far. And he's destroyed his career by burning bridges and pissing people off. It's unfortunate, because he changed the face of guitar and to be where he's at today is kind of sad." Read more here. Classic Rock Magazine is an official news provider for antiMusic.com.
