Metal Allegiance, the project that began as a celebration for heavy metal music featuring its four core members David Ellefson (Megadeth), Alex Skolnick (Testament), Mike Portnoy (The Winery Dogs/ex-Dream Theater) and Mark Menghi will release their sophomore album Volume II – Power Drunk Majesty on September 7th via Nuclear Blast. Today (24th), the third single “Bound By Silence,” featuring John Bush is now available.

Skolnick commented:

“Bringing in John Bush to sing on “Bound By Silence” feels like a  real coup. He has the perfect voice for this track musically, as well as the ability capture the intensity of the lyrics in terms of storytelling. A great addition the the MA family.”

Menghi added:

“’Bound By Silence’ tells the true tale of an amazing Vietnam War Vet, a brave soul who told me his incredible story with only a few months left to live due to Pancreatic Cancer. It’s a very personal song to me. I’ve since come to learn he recently passed on while leaving a great legacy behind. Forever Bound By Silence.”
