Red Fang Guitar Solo Contest: Winners Announced!

MetalSucks, Relapse Records,IndieMerch Store, and Soundcloud recently asked Red Fang fans to provide their own guitar solo for the track “Blood Like Cream” from the band’s kick-ass new album, Whales and Leeches, for the chance to win some incredible prizes,  including a one-of-a-kind custom fuzz pedal from guitarist David Sullivan! There were a lot of great entries, and the band listened to all of them — yes, all of them! — and have now hand-picked their favorites! It was a tough call — so tough, in fact, that even though there was only supposed to be one grand prize winner and two runners-up, the band has decided to give out a few honorable mentions to receive some additional goodies! We’re so honored to have such talented readers.

And on that note, the winners are…
