The July 2025 edition of Guitarist magazine includes a 3-page feature on Envy of None as part of their Tones Behind the Tracks series. They chat with Alex Lifeson for a short interview about how the project came about, their new Stygian Wavz album, what gear he used, and what's next for the band.

... We've been talking about [live shows]. You know, it's not easy to just go and do a gig. It's not like you grab your gear, jump in a van and go to a place and play. We have never played together, so we'd need to put together a set from the two albums. There's a lot of work involved to even consider doing some dates. But having said that, we would love to because, in our minds, we can see what an amazing couple of hours it would be if we were to do those first two records in a live situation. A nice theatre with a nice PA and a very subtle light show. I think that would be great.

You can read the entire interview in the July, 2025 edition of Guitarist magazine. Thanks to RushFanForever for the heads up and transcript.
