As previously announced, seven guitarists will showcase their shredding skills for a panel of three judges: Alex Skolnick (Testament), Daniel Dekay (Diemonds, BangerTV) and Sam Dunn (Banger Films Co-Founder). The six-episode series is hosted by Blayne Smith and premieres Monday, July 23rd, with new episodes daily during “Shredders Week” – July 23 to 28.
“No one’s ever really done a show like this before,” says Sam Dunn in the video. At the end of each episode, one contestant will be eliminated, until the finale episode featuring a guitar duel to determine one champ.
The SHREDDERS OF METAL digital series is produced by Banger Films with the support of the Bell Fund.
