Mike Portnoy His First 'Full-Blown' Metal Album
. (Classic Rock) Drummer Mike Portnoy has revealed he's been recording his first "full-blown" heavy metal album. Details of who he's recording with haven't been officially confirmed, although he recently posted a picture of himself with Testament guitarist Alex Skolnick and Megadeth bassist David Ellefson on Facebook. And the sticksman says his live appearance with members and former members of bands including Anthrax, Slayer, Sepultura and Death Angel under the Metal Allegiance banner sparked his idea for his latest project. He tells Mike Portnoy Warriors: "There's another album I just finished the drums and the writing on - and it's my full-blown first full-on metal album. We wrote it in December and January, I tracked my drums in January, and we're about to do the guitar and bass tracks. "It's pretty obvious that it's stemming from my Metal Allegiance experience. I'm getting to do double-bass shredding drumming that I've only been able to hint at with Dream Theater, Avenged or Adrenaline Mob." Read more here.
