Testament - Perilous Nation

[blackthrasher]

1:44 .... Disposable Heroes.... xD!

[Blacklizzy22]

Really awesome!

The Singing sounds very similar to Hetfield's voice back then!

[modnarsarhp]

This is my second favorite Testament song behind Electric Crown

[MyRichardLong]

Testament=Epic

[gahoachma]

I used to play Mario Bros with this in my earholes.

[501stscottie]

bottom line testament is a legend band......

[Purdonnnnn1873]

@albiinoankka Kill 'Em All and Ride The Lightning.

[zythepsarian]

best old metal

[sylar0123456]

0:54 skin o my teeth

1:34 sweating bullets!

megadeth was influenced by testament!

[SpiritMolecule1]

This= Awesome

Karmablade= The new hope for Metal

[falarious123]

you know metallicas old shit is awesome, testaments old shit is awesome. But you have to admit that they both sound like shit now.

[TS2ArabMovies]

@falarious123 HEY HEY HEY there. Stfu. The Formation of Damnation, along with Endgame, were singly the best Thrash Metal albums ever since the end of the Thrash golden era by mid-90s. And I personally think Formation beats PWYP, but both are great albums.

Slow with the shit. Metallica getting their shit lost doesn't mean everything for each band. Give the Revival a hope, it's fucking decent.

[falarious123]

@TS2ArabMovies what are you talking about? endgame is megadeth, i was talking about metallica and testament. Megadeth still sounds amazing, i never said they sucked now. Formation of damnation is garbage. The vocals ruined formation of damnation.

[TS2ArabMovies]

@falarious123 Chuck Billy sounds decent to be honest. Formation was great. And I mentioned Endgame because I just keep stating that as one of the best thrash revival albums ever.

[technoguyx]

Dat bass.

[sebastian4399]

q chimba de bajo

[lowercase18]

and ignorant ppl say "thrash metal" is trash....... they dont know diddly skuat!!! thrash rules musically,lyrically,and time wise!!!...... /m/(>.<)\m\

[The1uFearisme]

@lowercase18 Nope. Only Metallica sounds like shit now, Testament's still wrecking shit bro

[lowercase18]

@The1uFearisme thts a tough one to agree with, do they sound different, sure. as does slayer, megadeth, testament, exodus and testament somewhat. is it still "thrash".. theres a little left in all of them, but its not as dirty, gritty, simple and yet blood boiling as it once was. 80s bro. only 80s, and early 90s.

[The1uFearisme]

@lowercase18 Megadeth sounded mostly the same, except they slowed down a littl bit in the 90's, probably to appeal to more people who aren't neccessarily huge metal fans. I don't listen to a WHOLE lot of Slayer, so idk. Metallica just went mainstream.

[Strindom]

@The1uFearisme Slayer started tuning their guitars to nu levels at some point. Compare Chemical Warfare and Angel of Death to any new slayer song.

[iamsocool147]

all of you guys who are fighting about which band is better are being dumbasses

If you were real metal fans you would like both bands because they both are freiking awesome

[BubblyNinjaFart]

why are Thrash bands allways compared on Thrash videos?

they are the same shit with different people, and they shall unite instead of getting compared by teenagers on YouTube.

Thrash Till Death! \m/

[MPetrozzaIsGod]

Awww take it easy on the Metallica junkies. Until they make a REAL THRASH METAL ENEMA, you won't be able to change their minds anyway. Hey..I like 3 Metallica songs myself.

[BigAlFTW]

bass intro-NICE

[studas2011]

chuck - billy - from predator

[UrbanAssault5150]

@studas2011 ;D



[agentcamo]

Testament Is WAY better than metallica!

Metallica changed styles for fame..

[Maidensfan1]

@pleasuretokill627 1-Because the retarded Metallica fans can't accept the fact that bands like Testament kicks Metallica's ass and 2-Metallica fans live in the past...

[vggtcd]

Only Two Motherfuckers ._.

[DarthMohammed]

"Bold is the one who dares to say what he feels"... greatest lyrics ever!

Keep that in mind here on YouTube when criticizing other people's comments.

"Say now what you will, before they make it illegal" ... more of the greatest lyrics ever. Words to live by.

[pbb8240]

@DarthMohammed agreed thrash has many quotes to live by reguardless of band :D

[wantelectronicmail]

This album kicks ass! 

[reigningbullets]

hey, does anyone know why louie clemente left?

[Lickmyballs718]

Annihilator, Testament, and Sanctuary own thrash.........i love guitar solos

[Christhjian]

This kind of more melodic sound makes thrash metal way more colorful than shouting in my opinion. That's why I simply love Anthrax, Megadeth and Testament!

[XxXTheNextSlashXxX]

all i got to say is learn your music befor you talk..

[RandyVanHalen1]

@acdcguy2 acdc................ Hahahahahah

[pandeth17]

[NAUGHTON96]

@RandyVanHalen1 Slayer are Thrash Metal , just coz the vocalist screams every hour an agen does not meen there Death Metal

[RandyVanHalen1]

@NAUGHTON96 alright but Testament and the other big 3 are more thrashy

[heashon2000]

ABSO-FUCKIN'-LUTELY BAD ASS!

[PGROSYE02]

The good thing about testament is that their lyrics are much more well written than most metal bands (they don't dwell on the death, die, satan shit)

[RandyVanHalen1]

@PGROSYE02 fuck yeah Testament kicks their ass

[XxmYnAmEiSmOexX]

I nearly shit my pants as soon as the song started.

[MrRobbfather]

who is the idiot talkin bout fotsam and jetsam lol...i wonder is he listens to the vanilla ice punk rock band ........moron

[davidscurlock1]

some dude put big 4 with anthrax

no way overkilll stomps on their necks while they are trying to hump their mike stands

[bloodmerc620]

@davidscurlock1 Anthrax rules stfu

[starsnbars3]

Aint it the truth

[TheLastBrainLeft]

Oh man, I am in the 11th grade again.

This and Flotsam And Jetsam's No Place For Disgrace made 1989 epic.

[starsnbars3]

@TheLastBrain Left Very good! You have great potential.

[jfkdjfd]

Testament fucking is the gods of thrash. I was before giving my vote to Overkill to the Big 4's expansion to the big 5, but Testament has it now. First Strike Is Deadly has the most awesome barreling riff ever, right after Petersong gets done with the first rhythm, it's the second one cause you'll know it is, cause you can hear Louie's double bass drums.

[davyjones21121]

peterson has a furious bad ass rythm on this one

[CarlosRex19]

I have the strange feeling that the new Britney's album it's gonna be the heaviest album ever. :D

[Nebelgranate]

TRvE^^

[doomedarkness]

Thanks for uploading this HELL OF A MASTERPIECE

[MrThrashingmad666]

everyone if you love thrash check out ThorHammer on myspace I'd put alink but youtube is gay if you love this you should also enjoy ThorHammer

SUPPORT TRUE METAL!!!

[SeeDubyaa]

@MrThrashingmad666

True metal? THIS IS TRUE METAL

[rozman40]

best song on the album!!! "the ballad" "envy life" both good but this one is the shit

[GRILLBUOY101]

out of all the thrash metal i have i love this cd the best i think i love the drums alot thats what does it for me mixed with the guitars .

[ThrashTillDeath322]

@ilovevampires555 get raped, bleed and die bitch.

what the fuck would you know about music, you have liked katy perry on your channel, jesus...

[heashon2000]

This song is killer. We used to cover this when we were playing back in the early 90s. Thanks for posting!

[killer13962]

i love this song

[williejack2]

I've seen Testament twice and they never play anything from Practice What You Preach....It pisses me off.

[Studas2006]

@williejack2 they normally play the title track, thats it. I've seen em twice, once in Camden 3 yrs ago and a year ago supporting Priest & Megadeth. Both times they were great.

[ThrashTillDeath322]

@williejack2 it's because this album gets such a bad wrap, alright it's not their best album but it's not as bad as people make it out to be, it's still a good release

[toxicwaltz89]

i just bought this album yesterday used at a pwn shop for 3bucks. well what can i say it an original cd from '89 so its scratched up a bit. havent listend to the whole thing yet. testament fukin rules

[TauruVikingur]

I'm reconnecting with this album in a major fuckin way after almost 20 years...FUCKIN THRASH with a MACHO FUCKIN ATTITUDE!!!

[McNuggetButt]

vocals sound a bit like skin o my teeth by megadeth at times, great song tho

[Ganjateer88]

@McNuggetButt what song do u think came first?

[deadenddude]

@McNuggetButt This came out 3 years before Skin o my Teeth.

[McNuggetButt]

@deadenddude i had no idea which came out first i was just pointing out a similarity, just goes to show how underrated testament is

[MegaJaybee]

the new youtube setup sucks dick down with it!

[mkerwin1]

read those lyrics - these politics and social issues ARE happening NOW:

Men are poor and lost in war of ideology

No solution will prevail unless we can be

Free on anger, free of pain

Free of hatred that we obtain

Show me what this place was meant to be

A Perilous, Divided Nation more and more everyday. Sad. Fuck Faux News.

Thanks Testament. Quite an eye opener for me in 1989 and still viably accurate today.

[chickenfetusnarr]

@mkerwin1 thats the beauty of it. timeless.

[RokkinpoGOROSHI]

@mkerwin1 your view is a bit one sided. blaming one party (i assume you mean conservatives based on your having a go at "faux" news.. nice play on words) will not solve any issues. all parties cause conflict, all parties cause hatred and anger. live free without a hive mind. dont place blame or faults solely on one party or individual.

"A Perilous, Divided Nation more and more everyday." you have just proved these lyrics correct. You are slowly giving into what the song was warning against.

[Dyno247365]

The guitar has a brutal sound in this song.

[PS3POWERFTW]

Solo reminds me of Marty Friedman's playing

[uhuhmaster]

the bass is so fucking cool!!!! :3

[MutantX109]

My favourite Album , i love the "Practice"-CD :-)

[CaptainAmerica4Ever]

Testament and Megadeth are both fuckin awesome bands!! cant wait to see them both mar 31st in hollywood!!

4.a day of reckoning

[SickMetalVideos]

Clemente's the best drummer for TestAmenT. Listen to that perfect drumming, Louie's own unmistakable style.

[lordatramentous]

reminds me of megadeth.

[metalskull100]

Best song for bass for Testament!!

[wiiwhiz]

i'd cal it a tie between this and the souls of black re recording

[iDrum37]

[pandemonic01]

[timmah638]

Absolute classic, thanks so much for putting up amazing songs by one of the greatest bands of all time!

[surgpath1]

Alex Skolnick is soo friggin good!!

Him gary holt(exodus)michael gilbert(flotsam and jetsam) were the best thrash guitarist in the 80s.

[Nikkimetal666]

@surgpath1

[jets1235]

@FkenHellzBellz

Disciples of The Watch

One Man's Fate

Over the Wall

[nilmaggot]

Just Kick Ass Metal..nuff said...

[FkenHellzBellz]

METAL!!!!!!!!!!

[theXbobXjob]

awesome bass intro

[lddevo88]

@theXbobXjob i agree, but i think the bass needs more bass in it

[rb7magnetico]

You can hear the influence of Al DiMeola on Alex on this whole album.

[metallicatilldeathhh]

wow lmao sounds a lot like megadeth, rust in peace if i had to be specific although it is significantly slower

[dalqorian]

Skolnick is an immense guitarist. So exotic and fluent...kinda like the original Marty Friedman

[JacquesFlamel]

Me recuerda al Kill 'em all.

[WPH15]

Cool!

[ErikB71]

There's a lot of great guitar riffs in Testament, but one thing I cant stand is the drummer, he fucking sucks. Every beat he does is a simple one two one two one two on the snare and bass drum. Its bullshit.

[Disposably]

Which drummer do you mean, actually?

The drummer in this video? Louie Clemente doesn't suck! Alright, his drumming is a bit easy and basic to this kind of music, but he's far from a bad drummer. The other drummers who he been in Testament is better, though...

[dalqorian]

who gives a fuck if the drummer plays simple beats?Its about the song not the drums...some bands are 'drum' bands, some a 'guitar bands'...Testament had some of the best metal songs of the 80's bar none!

[Disposably]

I agree! I love Testament and the drumming fits it brilliant...In my opinion Testament is the best thrash metal band...

[Luis444Felipe]

@Disposably Yeah maN!!!!

[Raikaage]

@Disposably I love Testament too, but if you're saying that, then you haven't listened to Sodom.

[JustFaKickz]

@Raikaage sodom is pretty good, i heard they have a new album out...just wondering if you heard it yet? if you have would you reccomend me buying it?

[Raikaage]

@JustFaKickz Yeah you can. It's good, but nothing too different from their last album (the self-titled one). I recommend buying that. That album was awesome.

[Stratodreamer]

this song is soooo megadeth :P

[thebandconniption]

Alex Skolnic used a jazz riff (prob. Chick Corea) to help write one of these riffs! At least, according to him. :)

[Studas2006]

CHOOOOOON!!

[stront555]

why does this song remind me so much of the song skin on my teath?

[GrifsRiffs]

that's strange it sounds nothing like it

[stront555]

i don't know why i think it lol

[JosephKuby]

This song reminds me of Megadeth's Liar which is also a song that draws comparisons with Skin o' My Teeth so I think you're onto something.

[TheLastSpartan67]

My fav track from the album!!

[Thrashfro384]

4th favorite Thrash band right here, Testament rules

[MrFosse75]

Which band is at 1st place?

[Thrashfro384]

MY favorite thrash band and band in general, Megadeth

[MrFosse75]

Very good "pick" :-)

[dhaliwalia]

metallica, megadeth, testament, what is other?

[Chuloloc]

Awesome. Into the nation of perilous thrash. Hail Testament.
