Lost Symphony - launched by multi-instrumentalist and producer Benny Goodman - has checked in with the following update:

"New album, Chapter III, featuring guests Marty Friedman, Nuno Bettencourt, Alex Skolnick, Richard Shaw, Angel Vivaldi, David Ellefson, Jimi Bell, Matt LaPierre, Joey Concepcion, Oli Herbert, and Ryan Formato drops July 9th! Check out the first single 'Take Another Piece' (feat. Marty Friedman, Nuno Bettencourt, Alex Skolnick and Richard Shaw) and pre-order the album here."

Friedman: "The friendly folks in the Lost Symphony project have a deep love for guitar. Let me rephrase that, they are dangerously obsessed with it! Whenever I am invited to participate in their music, it is exciting to be around their tireless enthusiasm, and cool things always seem to happen because of it. The newest song, 'Take Another Piece,' may be my favorite of all the LS songs I've been a part of."

Adds Skolnick: "It is humbling to share guest guitar duties with Marty and Nuno, two guitarists I consider to be champions among our generation of players, and an overall honor to be brought in to participate."
