Black Utopia is the third solo album by keyboardist Derek Sherinian. In addition to the returning members Zakk Wylde, Simon Phillips, and Steve Lukather, three new faces joined Sherinian’s all-star team: bassist Billy Sheehan and legendary guitarists Yngwie Malmsteen – with whom Sherinian toured in 2001 – and Al Di Meola. "One of the highlights of my career was flying to Miami to produce Yngwie, and the next day Al Di Meola - all for my record! ". The song "Axis Of Evil" (co-written with KISS drummer Eric Singer) showcases Zakk Wylde and Yngwie Malmsteen in a brutal guitar duel. Black Utopia marks the first of ongoing collaborations with drummer Brian Tichy, and album cover artist Mattias Noren. Black Utopia is Derek's best selling solo record to date.
