ALBUM ART + RELEASE DATE FOR TESTAMENT’S DARK ROOTS OF THE EARTH!!! | MetalSucks

Cant wait for the new album. These guys seem to be running at full speed since their last record Anybody else excited...?

 

[USMarine75]

Practice What You Preach is one of my favorite albums of all time! Love me some new Testament. Is Skolnick back?

 

[anomynous]

Skolnick's been back since 2005........

 

[USMarine75]

Sweet! He was one of the reasons I picked up guitar. I always preferred him over Hammett or Mustaine/Chris Poland... I know who I'm seeing when they come to town.

 

[TheShreddinHand]

Freakin' awesome, can't wait for this! Love me some Testament. And I agree, of all the 80s thrash bands, Skolnick was my favorite lead player.

For my money, The Ritual had some of the hands-down best lead guitar of that era.

Nice Cernunnos on the album cover too!

 

[Netherhound]

It's like if the Deku tree had a three way with Satan and Jeff Bridges...


Bring on the album!

(I like the cover)

Giggidy. Can't wait to hear! Fantastic band still thrashing like it's 1988!

 

[TheFerryMan]

Need me some more Gene Hoglan in my life

Me neither. I miss the old days of non-digital album art.

Beyond excited for this album, though. Those three non-Skolnick albums were big downers for me, and then The Formation of Damnation was a superb return to form. Hoping this is another masterpiece

This art was painted supposedly

 

[Into Obsidian]

Looks painted to me!!

I always look forward to hearing Skolnick play

 

[EvolDerek]

Sweet! I really dig that cover art. seems fitting with the name of the album.

 

[Nile]

The art

 

[revlover]

I am convinced that this will be great! Apparently Chris Adler is drumming on two tracks.

 

[Bloody_Inferno]

^ Yes Chirs Adler and Gene Hoglan are sharing drum duties for this album.

Seriously looking forward to this.
