TESTAMENT's ALEX SKOLNICK To Guest On Tomorrow's 'The Metal File'

April 24, 2008

"The Metal File" program on Montreal's CHOM-FM (commercial, 50,000 watts) will air a 40-minute feature on TESTAMENT at the beginning of tomorrow night's show (Friday, April 25).

CHOM's Mike Metal did an interview with TESTAMENT guitarist Alex Skolnick to celebrate the release of the band's new album, "The Formation of Damnation" (due April 29). Mike also has three copies of the album to give away on the show.

"The Metal File" can be heard live from 12 midnight to 1 a.m. Friday nights on CHOM-FM. It is also available for listening via the Internet at www.chom.com.

An e-card for "The Formation of Damnation" can be accessed at this location.

The band recorded "The Formation of Damnation" in part with producer Andy Sneap (MACHINE HEAD, EXODUS, ARCH ENEMY, NEVERMORE) at Fantasy Studios in Berkeley, California.

As previously reported, TESTAMENT will be the featured artist on MTV for an entire week later this spring as part of the channel's "52/52" campaign. Performances including footage shot on April 2 on the Alcatraz Island (more commonly known simply as Alcatraz) and video material that was filmed at the April 6 concert at the B.B. King Blues Club & Grill in New York City along with interviews, and behind-the-scenes footage will air throughout the week.

MTV's "52/52" is a brand new way for the channel to give unprecedented exposure to unsigned artists, indie bands, and established acts on major labels in a completely new and innovative way. MTV handpicks one band/artist per week for the entire year and gives them the equivalent of roughly 11 hours of on-air commercial time per week on the channel.
