Robert K. Lopez
BIO: Lead Guitarist
Self taught, USA Based. I first started playing
the guitar at around age 4 or 5. In 1991, I almost
lost 3 fingers and was told I'd never play again.
As the story goes, with much determination I have
built my speed up to almost where it was prior to
the accident. I am pretty muchly a flash player with
a 80's metal sound.

What would I say about my playing:
I am old school 80's metal. I normally do quite a few tracks.
So if you listen to it a few times, you will hear stuff that you
did not hear before on it.

Previous bands: I have played in quite a few bands, such as:
Forged Steel, Waysted Innocense, Defiance, Endureth, Forced Entry
and many more.

Likes: Songs with solo's in the middle and endings.
It shows talent.

Dislikes: Watching one of these new bands play, and there is
no solo in it. To me solos are what make a guitarist.

Why Koalition: Koalition to me is the ultimate achievement.
I call it the best of the best band. Numerous countries and only a
few guitarists. Every song has so many talents involved and each
song has a different sound. Aarion has an ear for finding the best
musicians and it is damn impressive.

Current Project is: Forged Steel

Influences are: Criss Olivia, Randy Rhoads, Yngwie J. Malmsteen,Vinnie Moore
Vivian Campbell (DIO), Queensryche, Dream Theater,
Dokken (George Lynch), Ratt, Leatherwolf, Flotsam and Jetsam, Megadeth
and Iron Maiden.

Favorite Quote: "If it is too loud, You are too old"

Gear: Jackson Kelly Guitars and Jackson Professional Strats.
DOD GS30 Effects, BC Rich Amps and Marshall Amps.
Dunlap Picks and SIT Strings.

Recording Gear: Sonar 4 Professional
