This is my sort of homage to Zakk Wylde, except less bluesy (mainly cos blues just doesn't do it for me). The solo is a bit silly, just improv'd over the top with wah, and the tone is a bit strange, cos its an awful Line 6 POD with lots of Post EQ

Play live with my band None Of The Above, in Birmingham, UK, love every second of it. Most special moment was the crowd screaming for more at our first gig
Hard to tell my influences, it can be anyone from one minute to the next. Alexi Laiho of Children Of Bodom started me playing, but I dont play like him. Meshuggah have an influence on me, as do Iced Earth, but at the same time Eric Roche does and so does Charlie Hunter
