RadioBypass Chat with Alex Skolnick (Testament, Metal Allegiance, Alex Skolnick Trio)

Alex Skolnick first became well known as the guitarist for Testament. Alex is not just a speed player however, and has a broad interest in different musical styles. He can certainly shred with the best of them, but there are many flavors to his playing. Alex joins us by phone to discuss one of his bands, Metal Allegiance, who have a live show coming up on January 23, 2025 in Anaheim California. We talk about his background, find out how he went from playing thrash to jazz, earning a degree in jazz, and talk about the forming of Metal Allegiance and discuss the two albums the band have released to this point, and whether a third album will be forthcoming. Alex picks out some Metal Allegiance music for us to crank up at the end. Alex has had such and interesting career and he was absolutely a pleasure to speak with.
