JOHN 5 ON THE ART OF MALICE:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWith guitar instrumental records, you get one thing and it\u2019s hard to listen to [one thing] all the way through. Even for guitar players it\u2019s kinda tough. I like to put together different styles to keep the listener entertained. It\u2019d be like eating the same meal again and again; it\u2019d get tiresome. I just put some different styles in there, and put a cover of Ace Frehley\u2019s \u201cFractured Mirror\u201d on the record. It was the first instrumental I heard and I loved KISS so much. It turned out to be one of my favorite songs for quite a long time \u2013 and I was only eight or nine years old when it came out. To do a cover of that song was something special.\u201d<\/strong><\/strong><\/p>John 5 speaking to Metal Sucks<\/a>: April 21, 2010<\/cite><\/blockquote><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
