Some great reviews:
Guitar and Bass Magazine UK: "Opening with zappy acrobatic riffing that sounds, well, quite unlike anything we’we ever heard; weird and wonderful shredding that’ll have even the most proficient players agape."

"Flight of Pegasus" Greek Webzine and radio station ..He demonstrates impressive playing/technique- which easily separates him from many different others..Truly a remarkable musician.”

Guitar Player magazine USA- February 2009: "Pedersen's notes seem to bounce off his fingers like kernels in a popcorn machine. His wonderfully off-kilter melodies and slippin' and slidin' bends add to the illusion that you're being pelted by shards of strange yet beguiling music. This is a good lesson on employing formidable technique in a uniquely musical way." (Michael Molenda, editor of Guitar Player magazine).

Radio Xymphonia (The Netherlands): "The high degree of virtuosity is therefore linked to some nice catchy song.”

iO Pages music magazine, Netherlands: He developed a sophisticated sort of shredding.
That is why even when it goes very fast – the melody is easy to follow. Pedersen has been able to use his experience with radio friendly bands to profile himself as a guitar virtuoso!"

TruthInShredding UK: Crazy guitar chops from Roger Pedersen . Roger Pedersen certainly has a really distinctive style and incredible licks!

Norway Rock Magazine: "Han beviser at omtalen i Guitar Player Magazine US er berettiget. He er det gitarakrobatikk på øverste hylle. Det er shreddng, sweeping, tapping- you name it!

Heavymetal.no: "This is gold!!....Det er ingenting fetere enn å høre folk som kan sakene sine så bra at det høres ut som en lek...Om det går fort eller i sjektefart, takler fyren å fremstå som en formidabel instrumentalist!

TV2 Norway: Fingrene til Roger farer over Fender-gitaren med imponerende presisjon og ikke minst et vanvittig tempo.

If you like extreme, skilful guitar playing and want it in a package with some kind of melodies, this is an album you can try to get in your collection.

More Is More, certainly offers plenty more “popcorn,” and similar to John 5 (yet different), Pedersen’s playing often appears to be on the brink of total disarray … somehow, though, he masterfully keeps it together. More Is More contains Shredding with a touch of Jazz and Fusion … and it’s a listen worth your time.
