DAVID SHANKLE's 'Insane, Hot Shred Lick'; Video Available

January 17, 2009

Video footage of former MANOWAR and current DAVID SHANKLE GROUP (DSG) guitarist David Shankle playing an "insane hot shred lick" for the Guitar Wheel book, due out later in 2009, can be viewed below.

DAVID SHANKLE GROUP recently rejoined forces with singer Kyle Michaels following a brief collaboration with Chitral "Chity" Somapala (AVALON, FIREWIND, FARO, MOONLIGHT AGONY, RED CIRCUIT). The band's current lineup also includes keyboardist Drake Mefestta and drummer Gabriel Anthony.

Commented Kyle Michaels: "I'm back with David and together we have reformed DSG with all-new members. Starting with players that the two of us have handpicked from the experience, great attitude, world-class talent and the look that David and I believe our audience deserves. All the while knowing we have all the material from the first two DSG records, we are writing a new record and getting ready to put a live show together with a mix of new material and an intoxicating witching brew of our past. We are filling a void that has been missing for years in our generation of music. Great songs, great live show… heavy-as-hell, powerful, shredding guitars with soaring killer vocals, all on top of a monstrous rhythm section complimented by orchestral compositions of the most eerie and familiar nightmare."
