Metal Allegiance have joined forces with Alice In Chains vocalist/guitarist William DuVall for a new track called “Black Horizon.” Bassist Mark Menghi said the following about that:
“Who would have thought we’d be here 12 years later with new MA music? Very excited to have one of my favorite vocalists from one of my favorite bands on the first new MA music in 8+ years, which opens up a new era for MA. As the saying goes, you can’t kill what doesn’t die.”
Guitarist Alex Skolnick (Testament) continued:
“This song is a gift from the ghost of MA past. It’s salvaged from a stockpile of riffs we’d started long ago but never quite finished. Now, in combination with a first time voice for the band — the great William Duvall — we are pleased to announce a brand new track, forged from what once was, here to kick off a new era. Check it out!”
Drummer Mike Portnoy (Dream Theater) also commented:
“After having recording these drum tracks some time ago, I’m stoked that they finally get to see the light of day! Thanks to William for finishing it up for us and welcome to the MA family! m/”
DuVall added:
“I was pleasantly surprised and absolutely honored to be asked to contribute to this song and I’m very happy with the result.”
