ELLEFSON-SOTO FEAT. DAVID ELLEFSON AND JEFF SCOTT SOTO RELEASE UNBREAKABLE ALBUM; TRACK BY TRACK BREAKDOWN VIDEO POSTED

Grammy Award winning bassist David Ellefson (ex-Megadeth) and acclaimed metal vocalist Jeff Scott Soto have once again joined forces, releasing their second album, Unbreakable, today, August 15, via Rat Pak Records.

The duo Ellefson-Soto is joined by Italian guitarist Andy Martongelli and Paolo Caridi on drums and the new album features 11 studio tracks with guest appearances from Tim Ripper Owens (KK’s Priest) and Burning Witches frontwoman Laura Guldemond.

In the new video below, David Ellefson, Jeff Scott Soto, Andy Martongelli and Paolo Caridi break down the inspiration, songwriting, recording process, and the stories behind their heaviest and most dynamic tracks yet. From blistering riffs to anthemic choruses, the guys pull back the curtain and share what makes Unbreakable a must-hear for every metal fan.

Recorded at Rogue Studios in Wembley UK, by Alessio Garavello and produced by Chris Collier (Mick Mars, Korn, Flat Black) Unbreakable is a sonic assault packed with catchy riffs, melodic vocals, and thoughtful lyrics that blends their classic metal roots with modern rock intensity.

“This album digs even deeper,” says Ellefson. “It’s heavier, more personal, and shaped by everything we’ve experienced on and off the stage.” Soto adds, “The energy we poured into this one—it’s the sound of two lifetimes colliding in riffs, rage, and redemption.”

Ellefson further comments, “One of the things I like most is I feel like you can hear a real sense of brotherhood on our records, that we’re really in the creative process together as a band. The consistency of our sound has remained intact while allowing us to further build upon each other’s strengths from our debut album. It’s an honest, organic approach that blends well and lets us explore new sounds and musical paths. At the end of the day, I don’t think there is anything that an artist desires more than that!”

Unbreakable is available on all major streaming platforms with limited edition autographed Vinyl, CD & Cassette bundles exclusively through Rat Pak Records. You can view all available formats and order here.
