Meltdown is the third studio album by the American guitarist Vinnie Moore, released in 1991 through Relativity Records. Moore wanted to use a singer on the album but could not find a suitable one. He supported the album with a North American tour.
The Washington Post wrote that "this is fast and furious, finger-flying stuff for the most part, a power trio album devoted to torrid instrumental flights and designed to compete with the likes of Steve Vai." The Chicago Tribune concluded that "Moore's production is intenseâÂÂmuch better than that of labelmate Steve VaiâÂÂwith crisp snares, wicked-yet-smooth guitar squeals and steady low end."
