The Death Angel guitarist was interviewed by Robb’s MetalWorks and the chat covered a wide range of topics relating to the band’s quarter century history.

This year, the band have spent time on the road with Anthrax and Testament, as well as having re-issued their long out of print debut ‘The Ultra-Violence’ for it’s twenty fifth anniversary.
