We show that roots of log-concave Alexander knot polynomials are dense in $\mathbb C$. This in particular implies that the log-concavity and Hoste's conjecture on the Alexander polynomial of alternating knots are (essentially) independent.
Keywords: genus, alternating knot, Alexander polynomial, dense, polynomial root
