Trilogy is the third studio album by guitarist Yngwie Malmsteen, released in October 1986 through Polydor Records. The album reached No. 44 on the US Billboard 200[2] and charted within the top 60 in the Netherlands and Sweden. In the liner notes, Malmsteen dedicates the album to the memory of the late Swedish prime minister Olof Palme, who was assassinated on 28 February 1986.

Malmsteen’s compositional and lyrical skills were described as being at their peak on Trilogy, while his guitar work was praised as “jaw-droppingly fast and technically demanding”. “Dark Ages”, “You Don’t Remember, I’ll Never Forget” and “Trilogy Suite Op: 5” are highlights.
