You can't go to any video with a metal band involved, that at least half the comments are talking about Metallica...Metallica is Metallica, Testament is Testament...they both kick serious ass..so does megadeth, so does thrash...shut the fuck up and stop comparing metal bands to Metallica
@liveingthoughtsfade Actaully, Exciter was the very very first thrash band, but yeah. Without Metallica, these ungrateful idiots wouldn't have the bands they listen to.
@liveingthoughtsfade: well it's not realy about "who created it". It's more the carreer bands gone through. Metallica disapointed me three times: Load, ReLoad and St. Anger. Testament only did it with Demonic. Plus: today Testament can still play metal like metal should be ... Metallica is just weaker now (logic after YEARS of touring). ;) however, Metallica still kicks ass.
@liveingthoughtsfade not true,we all know bands like Exodus exists longer. Did you know most of the riffs from the best songs were on the demo of Exodus 1982??
@liveingthoughtsfade Yeah and when he left Exodus sounded/sounds completely different, the riffs your talking about ARE KIRKS. They were written in '82 for the Exodus demo, just RELEASED later in 2004 or so. Exodus sounds NOTHING like Metallica. I'm glad Kirk got his ultimate break cause he's a stand up nice guy, but I'm also GLAD he's IN Metallica. I'm a Exodus fan, they're fine with Holt and Altus and previously Hunolt. Kirk down with Metallica for life please.
What an odd comment, it's as if it's better to stop listening to Metallica, or as if listening to Metallica keeps you from listening to other bands/exploring other bands.
I find it odd to see so much anti-Metallica or at least comments negative towards Metallica on this album on YT. You know, Chuck Billy is a big Metallica fan, and it's not as if he's musically retarded. So funny to see fans of bands bashing Metallica while band members are actually fan of them.
@OpethToolMetallica i love metallica but im saying i found a band as good or even better then metallica bt metallica is still my favorite band testament is my 3rd
@OpethToolMetallica dude hes just saying that he liked metallica so much and couldnt find a band that was just as awesome to listen too aswell, there was no negativity...
@darthkiller14 me 2 man,id heard about testament b4 and am a huge fan of older metallica,old sepultura and slayer,infact im a fan of thrash so when i heard this i was in fukin love with it straight away
@darthkiller14 i felt the same way dude Metallica will always be my fav. but I know Testament is better and Chuck Billy's voice never went like James' did..
@darthkiller14 ive always liked metallica.. well only the black album. it was only this year i got into them, other than that its all been slayer megadeth and overkill
Fucking hell man that main riff has got some fucking burn!!!!
