What happens when you have a Heavy Metal guitar player who was obsessed with Classical Music in his youth? You get Yngwie ("Ing-vay") Malmsteen's take on "Fugue in G Minor" by Johann Sebastian Bach.
This is "Fuguetta" by Yngwie J. Malmsteen's Rising Force from the 2005 album Unleash The Fury.
As for the name of the album...
In 2002, guitar acrobatic extraordinaire Yngwie Malmsteen was aboard an airplane in Japan and received the surprise of his life. As folklore goes, Malmsteen allegedly made offensive comments regarding homosexuality. A fellow passenger took offense to the comment and proceeded to throw a glass of water on Malmsteen. This sent his temper into a rising force and began a legendary tirade that catapulted Malmsteen back into the heavy metal spotlight for one last time. Amid the fracas Malmsteen launched a verbal spat on the passenger with the phrase "you've unleashed the f*cking fury" being atop the most quotable of moments. [Ref. ALLMUSIC.]
