"Veteran San Francisco Bay Area thrashers TESTAMENT will release their new album, "The Formation of Damnation", in North America on April 29, 2008 via Nuclear Blast Records."
Testament was my favorite band when I really got into metal in high school, and I kind of lost interest in the early 90's but about two years ago I found their 1999 CD "The Gathering" and it instantly became one of my favorite metal albums of all time. I can't believe I missed it when it came out. I had heard "Demonic" a times on tour, but for some reason never picked it up, but when I found out Dave Lombardo had played drums on the Gathering I had to find it, and I have probably listened to it a minimum of twice a week since.
With Eric Petersons riffs, Paul Bostaph playing drums, Alex Skolnick back on lead guitar, and Andy Sneap producing(!!) I have zero doubt this new record will be amazing. Cannot wait until April.
And I guarantee there was to be a To The Lions promo photo this is the look we would go for. Sunglasses?... check, black, head to toe? ... check, barbedwire!... check, smiles? ... there's no smiling in metal.
