Hosts Eddie Trunk, Don Jamieson and Jim Florentine get the Anthrax guys to provide an update on their new album, as well as their side projects. They also “Rank” their own albums, “Put It On The Table” with answers to some serious questions, and engage in a passionate debate in the “Throwdown” when it’s KISS - Unmasked vs. KISS - Dynasty. Anthrax singer Joey Belladonna checks in from the recording studio in Los Angeles via the “Metal Modem.” Joey updates everyone on how the recording is going for Anthrax’s new album while taking a break from tracking his vocals.
The episode also features Testament’s ace shredder, Alex Skolnick, making his return to That Metal Show. The guitar wizard discusses his latest acoustic solo album, Planetary Coalition. He also talks about the upcoming Testament / Exodus tour, and how much he’s looking forward to those shows. Alex even donates one of his ESP LTD signature guitars to the Box Of Junk for one very lucky and excited winner.
