In this week’s brand new episode of Gear Factor<\/a>, Hatebreed<\/a>‘s Wayne Lozinak<\/a> plays his favorite riffs.<\/p>\n Loudwire had the opportunity to attend Ohio’s Sonic Temple<\/a> festival last month, and while we were there, we captured a whole season’s worth of new Gear Factor episodes. We’re launching this next batch with Lozinak.<\/p>\n The guitarist played riffs by rock and metal legends including KISS<\/a>, Judas Priest<\/a>, Ozzy Osbourne<\/a>, Metallica<\/a> and, of course, some of his very own Hatebreed riffs.<\/p>\n “I tried to teach myself growing up, but I just made a lot of noise. For years I had a guitar because my father had one, so I would just mess around with his,” Lozinak recalled during the episode.<\/p>\n READ MORE:\u00a0The Rock + Metal Bands Touring in 2025 – Tour Guide<\/a><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n “Then when I was about 12 or 13, I started taking lessons.
