    Eddies influences through the years have ranged from European to British & some of the US sounds. Michael Schenker and Uli Roth early on were a big part of his playing style that layed down the Neo-Classical foundation that later followed into the Shrapnel lineups such as Marty Friedman, Jason Becker, Yngwie Malmsteen &  Paul Gilbert which all extended that Neo-Classical sound. Through the years Eddie has always enjoyed British and U.S. bands such as KISS, Judas Priest, Y&T, VH, Sabbath(ofcourse) and so on.
   Currently Eddie is a huge fan of the Scandanavian onslaught from bands like Inflames, Opeth(favorite), Soilwork and Katatonia...not excluding the U.S. "Scandanavian" metal sounds of Daath, Devin Townsend(Canadian) and Scar Symmetry.
