Went way back again to my Testament influences. I remember taking a trip to Mexico and buying every Testament Album up to Souls of Black. It had some of the most intense playing I had ever heard. Immediately, I became a huge Alex Skolnick fan and learned every solo I could off of every album.

So this tune will probably melt your face a bit especially with the blast beat sections. Hope you enjoy!

Oh almost forgot, this one features my first real guitar. My beloved Ibanez RG570 loaded with Dimarzio Tone Zone/Airnorton. My Dad flew me to New York on my 15th birthday as a surprise to buy this in Manhattan. What an experience that was! (I also threw in the Ibanez 4 string bass to even out the Ibanez festivities)

Skolnick was by far my favorite part of Testament. And as far as Face-melting? Bring it!

Cool stuff as always! Weirdly, even though I consider myself a thrash metal fan, I don't own any Testament albums. Please don't revoke my Thrash Metal card!

Looks like I need to start collecting some of their stuff, sounds like things I'd like based on your song...

You master a song like no one else! It always sounds like a producer spent 6 months working on it.

Thanks a bunch doc! Means a lot.
I was worried about this one. The Ibanez hasnt had a string change in at least 3 years lol.
