122. TESTAMENT’S ALEX SKOLNICK SHREDS EXPECTATIONS & REVEALS THE FULL STORY BEHIND HIS ENTIRE CAREER (PART 1)

The lead guitar player of Testament isn’t your typical metalhead, as you’ll soon hear.  He’s had a long, varied, and surprisingly moving career in music. 

 

In this episode, Alex talks with Discograffiti about:

 

• The evolution of the types of guitars he’s played through his life;
• The exciting road to becoming Testament’s lead guitar player;
• And the epiphany he experienced in the late 1980s watching a Miles Davis gig, and the profound effect it had on his career.
