Wow! Testament is back in a big way. Got Alex back & Chuck has never sounded better. Top notch production for some kick ass thrash. Testament certainly deserve the support. Looking forward to the next album- I believe its supposed to come out in Feb. 2012
Testament stayed more true to their roots, and didnt expieriment with other sounds. they actually got heavier through the years like Metallica.. That's why this album kicks ass is still more thrash than DM and St anger even though Metallica starte dout a thrash metal band liek Testament. I'm really high tight now too.
@MindFury like Metallica? Dude Metallica sucks now. They got retarded through the years. Metallica changed and started making shitty music, bands like Slayer, Exodus and Testament stayed true to their roots and continue to fuckin rock your brains out today. The old 'Tallica is the shit, but this "new" Metallica sounds like they fucked off the original fans and tried to earn the respect of the little kids who like Linkin Park and Papa Roach and shit.
...some guys that are hardly at drinking-age debate about the birth of metal...just funny....and to kill some rumors here are some of the milestones that made metal big (maybe not the best albums, but they had the biggest influence)
black sabbath: paranoid
Iron maiden: the number of the beast
judas priest: british steel
venom: black metal
metallica: master of puppets
slayer: reign in blood
death: leprosy
everything else is copied..some of em are good though;) and now go and buy em:)
@jimmyriesling you are right and you know much about metal....this is true even if i love testamente megadeth and so on those were the cds that made what metal is today.-.......the rest is a copy with personality i d say
thrash metal is definitely not what it used to be. i think it's much more technical now. like take a look at overkill's album "ironbound" and medeth's "endgame". not the same... but i love it!!!!!!!!!
@jesse17ful they are different in some ways though. Testament is way heavier and faster, while Metallica is just as good, just a bit slower and lighter, but none the less good. They are also from different decades. Metallica 80s and testament late 90s and 2000s. I like them both equally and listen to them both avidley. I AM NOT TAKING SIDES
@illownyou42 Whatre u talkin abt dude?? Testament released their first album in 1987. and personally i like Metallica better than Testament because they were the first thrash metal band i got into, but no matter how you look at it to me Testament has prevailed through the years while Metallica has fell behind, I mean Testament got heavier and more epic over the years and plus they got more talented musicians as well.
@jesse17ful if you took your time to listen to all metallica albums u would find that this is the other way around if the only metallica songs youve listened to are master of puppets and one i could completly understand why you say this but i assure you my friend
all metal bands put together to ride the storm of metallica would fail do to lack of power!!!
@abc21035854christ metalica are far from the most powerfull metal band, they are good dont get me wrong but it is not 'brute force and power' sort of good, more sort of delicate and fancy
@jesse17ful if you took your time to listen to all metallica albums u would find that this is the other way around if the only metallica songs youve listened to are master of puppets and one i could completly understand why you say this but i assure you my friend
all metal bands put together to ride the storm of metallica would fail do to lack of power!!!
@jesse17ful hey i like testament too but they're not better than metallica. no thrash band is better than metallica becuase they are the originals of thrash. megadeth, slayer, testament, anthrax, exodus, and overkill rule too but come on metallica are the inventors of thrash.
@thrashmaniac99 hi dude use your brain it is all a matter of taste and by the way exodos is from 81 or 82 so they are just as old as metallica so it is hard to say who was the first but hi pal you cannot say metallica is the best just bcoz they were the first to play that kind of music thats stupid
@mortenrahm but if u look back on metallica's first 4 albums and death magnetic, they were perfect thrash albums. exodus after bonded by blood wasnt really good. testament's first 3 albums and the formation of damnation were perfect thrash albums. honestly, no metal will be heavier than black sabbath dude because sabbath were the originals of metal. besides i tried of everybody dissing metallica. if u r a true metalhead then u need to stop dissing metallica.
@thrashmaniac99 Black Sabbath made Metal, Venom created Extreme Metal, Metallica made Thrash popular. I won't give Metallica more credit than they deserve.
This better be sarcasm. Though Metallica had some good releases IE ...And Justice For All and Ride The Lightening those days are well behind the band. Frantic is probably one of their worst songs and can't even compare to some of Testaments worst songs, at least outside of Demonic.
@Madbutcher305 Of course you acknowledge St. Anger and not Death Magnetic. Typical of you morons who still believe in thrash metal band rivalry.
Metallica and Testament are both great bands. If you're such a thrash head that you can't accept it when Metallica tried new things, that's your fault, not the band's.
It was hardly new things; and while I like both bands I haven't been impressed by some of either band's works.
Testament have had two fairly bad albums, and Metallica has had a few too. I now have better insight and prefer not to compare bands; indeed, the term big four should not exist simply not exist.
Also, on the subject of Death Magnetic, I have never been a fan of it dues to bland songs like Cyanide and My Apocalypse weighing it down, but Judas Kiss was pretty decent.
@Madbutcher305 Allow me to correct myself; different things. A metal band should not be defined by the sound it played twenty or thirty years ago. Especially if it plays that sound just as well live in the current era. If there was no experimentation, music would be even further along in obscurity than the current hip-hop trend has brought us.
@Madbutcher305 I don't see the Black Album, Load or Reload as failures. And Death Magnetic is a result of a lot of bitching on the part of the fans. That said, I still see it as a good album. A return to form. Slayer accomplished the same thing with their album World Painted Blood. Megadeth did the same in Endgame.
Black Album and the Loads are fine, but I felt that Death Magnetic tried to emulate old Metallica. It's kinda like Slayer's God Hates Us All in terms of direction; new-found aggression, but poorer songcraft compared to older works. As for St. Anger.. ...uhhhhheehrrhhr
Anyway, Slayer's comeback was Christ Illusion. Megadeth have been fine since System. Anthrax is releasing a new album this year too.
@Madbutcher305 There's a problem with this? The only issue I ever head with Death Magnetic was that the lyrics were not very strong (save for Unforgiven III). As far as I'm concerned, DM was another great metal album.
DM also had a bunch of songs that would have benefited from being shorter, especially inspid tracks like Cyanide, which generally are dull, as well as otherwise great tracks like The Judas Kiss, which could have benefited from just being a bit shorter.
Oh, and Kirk's solos were pretty bad. Not as diverse as earlier works and he had constant wah. Lars' drumming wasn't great either, it was a little too straightforward.
@Madbutcher305 All of those scathing qualities are ones that YOU heard. I did not. I still think DM was better than most modern metal we hear today. It was a good album throughout. Sure, maybe not as great as say Master or Ride, but it's a good return to their roots and I hope the next one is similar to it.
@jesse17ful Your so right dude.Testament kills Metallica in any aspect of the music i dont know why people are so shallow that they left out Testament out of the Big four.Metallica should be out and Testament should be in at any cost.Fucken killer riffs,Demonic Vocals.Teastament ruless.
@kytrev27 Testament never came close to popularity as any of the big four. Peoples opinion on musical taste has nothing to do with who should be included but obviously popular opinion has dictated why those 4 bands made it and Testament didnt. Face it, Metallica and co simply had better songs, better song writing and craftmanship. Testament, as heavy and as good as they are, simply never went anywhere with their music
@axl409v If you knew anything about Thrash Metal u wouldent argue about popularity because if u know who still remained a true Thrash metal band right till nw Metallica isent Thrash anymore sorry to say bt Metallica wasent the Metallica after Cliff passed away.Nd people who r fans of Metallica r mostly into grunge nd punk and alternate shit.U know the reason y Testament dint win a popularity contest because they dint participate in ny popularity contest they just made awsome music.Face the facts
@axl409v Nd secondly y dint i accuse Slayer,Anthrax or Megadeth to be replaced by Testament its because these 3 bands stuck to their music dude.But Metallica dint.We are talking about the big four or Thrash Metal not Alternative metal.Nd as far as the song writting,craftmenship goes of Testament they are awsome and their vocalist is still as beastly as he was when the band started and he never lost his voice.TESTAMENT RULEZZZZZZZ.
Are you REALLY using popularity as an argument point? That's like saying that Lady Gaga is better than Nuclear Assault because she sold more albums.
Secondly, Testament did actually come very close to matching the popularity of the Big 4 in the very late 80s since Practice What You Preach was a very popular thrash album at the time. In many ways, Testament was superior, as they right more technically demanding music while staying catchy and melodic.
Reason why Metallica shouldn't be called the best thrash-metal band or even be included to big four is because their first four albums are good, the rest is just garbage.
hahah evry thrash metal video i see...theres always a damn debate about megadeth and metallica......GET OVER IT!......there both one of the best bands for me:)
check out warpath. they are a newer thrash metal band, just released their first album not that long ago. you will be surprised! You would think that newer bands are nothing compared to older bands like testament, exodus, slayer.
The rhythmic part around 2:48 reminds me a lot of a riff from the Low album, I'm pretty sure it's "Hail Mary", both that and this song are awesome, of course, as expected from TESTAMENT! \m/
@dimbobscout Old metallica and megadeth are both Thrash. But if you think for one damn second that the new metallica is thrash LOL. Hell new metallica ain't metal rock or even country its just pure bullshit. St. anger was a joke and so is that fagot ass death magnetic... But Megadeth And Cliff Burton era metallica will always be bad ass and rule for fucking ever...
I agree with you about St. Anger being a joke. That album was pure garbage. But I did like Death Magnetic. Death Magnetic, in my opion, is their best album since ...And Justice For All, and I just plain don't like Megadeth. But everyone is entitled to their own opinion, so lets just argee to disagree.

@RockerHeade
This is a more logical comment. Many bands don't sound the same as when they started.
However, Testament has changed quite a bit. Their first albums were pure thrash, but now they have a death metal influence too.
Pantera is probably the greatest example of all, started as a cheesy glam-rock band and then becoming a groove/thrash giant.
The problem is that with Metallica's recent works, one doesn't really try new things (DM) and the other tries but falls flat on its face (St. A).

Oh, and Kirk's solos were pretty bad. Not as diverse as earlier works and he had constant wah. Lars' drumming wasn't great either, it was a little too straightforward.

@Madbutcher305 All of those scathing qualities are ones that YOU heard. I did not. I still think DM was better than most modern metal we hear today. It was a good album throughout. Sure, maybe not as great as say Master or Ride, but it's a good return to their roots and I hope the next one is similar to it.

@jesse17ful They damn sure are better. Metallica is a bunch of pussies compared to them...
angelairwave88 6 months ago
@jesse17ful Seriously? Dude, you realize your comment fails so badly right? Why?
1. Both bands are from the same damn basic genre.
2. How do you expect to beat Pop music if you guys are making bands from the same genres rival against each other?
3. There is no such thing as a better band than another because its all based on OPINION.

@jesse17ful Your so right dude.Testament kills Metallica in any aspect of the music i dont know why people are so shallow that they left out Testament out of the Big four.Metallica should be out and Testament should be in at any cost.Fucken killer riffs,Demonic Vocals.Teastament ruless.

@kytrev27 Testament never came close to popularity as any of the big four. Peoples opinion on musical taste has nothing to do with who should be included but obviously popular opinion has dictated why those 4 bands made it and Testament didnt. Face it, Metallica and co simply had better songs, better song writing and craftmanship. Testament, as heavy and as good as they are, simply never went anywhere with their music

@axl409v If you knew anything about Thrash Metal u wouldent argue about popularity because if u know who still remained a true Thrash metal band right till nw Metallica isent Thrash anymore sorry to say bt Metallica wasent the Metallica after Cliff passed away.Nd people who r fans of Metallica r mostly into grunge nd punk and alternate shit.U know the reason y Testament dint win a popularity contest because they dint participate in ny popularity contest they just made awsome music.Face the facts
kytrev27 5 months ago
@axl409v Nd secondly y dint i accuse Slayer,Anthrax or Megadeth to be replaced by Testament its because these 3 bands stuck to their music dude.But Metallica dint.We are talking about the big four or Thrash Metal not Alternative metal.Nd as far as the song writting,craftmenship goes of Testament they are awsome and their vocalist is still as beastly as he was when the band started and he never lost his voice.TESTAMENT RULEZZZZZZZ.

Firstly;
Are you REALLY using popularity as an argument point? That's like saying that Lady Gaga is better than Nuclear Assault because she sold more albums.
Secondly, Testament did actually come very close to matching the popularity of the Big 4 in the very late 80s since Practice What You Preach was a very popular thrash album at the time. In many ways, Testament was superior, as they right more technically demanding music while staying catchy and melodic.

Reason why Metallica shouldn't be called the best thrash-metal band or even be included to big four is because their first four albums are good, the rest is just garbage.

@dimbobscout Old metallica and megadeth are both Thrash. But if you think for one damn second that the new metallica is thrash LOL. Hell new metallica ain't metal rock or even country its just pure bullshit. St. anger was a joke and so is that fagot ass death magnetic... But Megadeth And Cliff Burton era metallica will always be bad ass and rule for fucking ever...

I agree with you about St. Anger being a joke. That album was pure garbage. But I did like Death Magnetic. Death Magnetic, in my opion, is their best album since ...And Justice For All, and I just plain don't like Megadeth. But everyone is entitled to their own opinion, so lets just argee to disagree.
