Chuck Billy has an awesome voice for metal. I love the range in his voice! This song is the one you hear it well! The dude can sing and growl with the best in metal. TESTAMENT Should be part of the Big 5
You should look up Stu Block. He's the lead singer for Iced Earth and he can do anything from death metal growls to Rob Halford screams. But chuck is the absolute best for thrash except for maybe Hetfield(in his early days.) MAYBE.
This is one the most genuinely intense (as opposed to a lot of bands that do the standard poses and things to say to look cool) fully and completely into what they're doing performances I've ever seen. This is what a pure love for metal looks like.
Chuck Billy is amazing, I love his low growl. His high pitched screams were pretty lame, glad he doesn't do them any more. Let's hear it for Eric Peterson, he doesn't get anywhere near the credit he deserves. Brilliant rhythm guitarist.

First time I ever heard testament was Live at the Apocalyptic City in ‘93 on cassette in my Walkman. When disciples hit, I was like “that’s cool. They have two singers”. 😂
Testament is very good. I grew up with this music in the Bay Area with bands like Deathangel, Forbidden and what not... Was a great time, very good music.
Metallica they were good at 80's begginig of the 90's after this period the became more and more commercial and lost their Thrash essence... but bands such as Testament, Exodus, Slayer, they carried out the flag of The Thrash Metal.
....really hope anyone's has the chance once in a lifetime to see them on stage....no video can makes you feel the adrenaline they're givin'... ! RULEZ ;)
Ok i stand corrected. Everyone keeps saying that Testament is not touring anymore, BUT they are all WRONG!!! I checked out their web site on MYSPACE and they have a brand new album calle Formation of Damnation comming out on April 29th 2008. I will be attending their concert in Mokena, IL on May 3rd C YA THERE!!!
This is metal to me, man. I don't know how it got warped and twisted into the corny shit we have today, but this to me is the peak of its history. The golden era.
no crap!!! he does play like clif!!!! i saw cliff twice in 85 and he greg play almost identical. he could of been the ultimate basses when metallica was looking for one, but i don't think greg would just like to play melodies! look at his finger picking
Same here....the answer is simple. Metallica was first and came out with more commercial friendly hits......Most real metal fans realize Testament is as good or better that's all that matters
Because let's be honest they have why more awesome riffs and that's just a fact I'm mean come on if you want me to list them just look at all 5 of the first albums
They obviously toured through NC and SC not long before this. I say this because Chuck is wearing a COC shirt and they are from Raleigh,NC ,and Greg is wearing a Myrtle Beach shirt and there is only one Myrtle Beach!
Testament is bad ass! Death Angel is a bad ass thrash metal band but I dont know if that would be in your top favorites, Seems to be a band that peoeple forget about.
Read the lyrics and then watch the movie Children of the Corn you will then know all similarities. Besides Chuck said that movie was his influence for the song!
Chuck Billy's voice was fucking killer then and still is now. As all the other bands ( Metallica, Slayer, Antrax ) got older they ALL sold out to going softer, ALL ACCEPT TESTAMENT!!!

Jordan Kay Tom Araya is my favorite thrash metal singer! I love Jamez' 80s stuff and St. Anger forward! Plus Millie from Kreator and Joey from Anthrax
His Death growl is the best hands Down!
I was there. And everybody here in Italy still remember the festival
Lol i was 7, but fuck i bet it was awesome to see them. Especially in their prime. Remember it forever.
Imo the best metal festival in ITA history....for me for sure....fkn great...Pantera....Warrant...Megadeth....

I like the way Skolnick made the solo looked so easy... he's one of my favorite guitar players ever...
Greg Christian is a fucking bass beast! Just awesome, such energy!!!!!
Chucks vocals in this are fucking intense \m/
i love that chuck can go from the upper register to the lower without hesitation. he pulls off that death growl omminously well.
God i love chuck's death growls!
Kickass vocals!
And alex's red pickups are awsome !
Testament, godfathers of thrash!!!
damn, thats one kickass bass!
Greg is crushing it!
wow amazing vocals and music testament fucking awesome
Seen Maiden, Testament, and COC on the American leg of this tour. Testament was the most intense thing I ever seen in my life.
awsome bass ! testament the formation of damnation the best album ever
Chuck Billy is amazing, I love his low growl. His high pitched screams were pretty lame, glad he doesn't do them any more.

@Torgeytits
I agree about the Big 5, but the reason the Big 4 were chosen weren't any of those, they just had the highest record sales at the time.
Ok i stand corrected. Everyone keeps saying that Testament is not touring anymore, BUT they are all WRONG!!! I checked out their web site on MYSPACE and they have a brand new album calle Formation of Damnation comming out on April 29th 2008.

DAMN THAT SOLO WAS CRAZY!

Greg Christian is awesome!!!!! :) \m/
Maaan, this performance is So .Fucking. BRUTAL.
That was at Monsters of Rock 1992 in Donington!
ieah very good the sound is the best
This is metal to me, man. I don't know how it got warped and twisted into the corny shit we have today, but this to me is the peak of its history. The golden era.
i agree!!!!!!!!!!!
Testament rules!!
Thank you so much for adding this. RUclips NEEDS older Testament videos.
Oh yeah, they played this one in Hungary too last Friday - it was an excellent concert
no crap!!! he does play like clif!!!! i saw cliff twice in 85 and he greg play almost identical. he could of been the ultimate basses when metallica was looking for one, but i don't think greg would just like to play melodies! look at his finger picking
Great show man.
Pantera was here too! :-D They played Rise! :P
I might see these guys in a few months
yup, ive seen them in manchester for the priest feast, were unreal!!!!! Best thrash by far, followed by Death Angel and Exodus!!!!
most of testaments song are so heavily laced with gnarly accents its hard to get down, but once you do it feels so badass to play their songs
Perfect.... 5 stars.
I was at a show in Houston when this CD came out, girls were throwing themselves at Chuck
I'm seeing these guys live later this month with Megadeth and Exodus. Win.
This band is fuckin amazing, im just starting to get into these guys..
OBEEEEEYY!!!
Epale MUCHAS gRACIAS. Y lo de Megadeth como que es verdad!. Que arrecho. Yo los vi en ago 2008 en NY. Y fue trmendo. Saludos.....
0:10 i just came all over my laptop when i heard the guitar :))))
Fucking Greg slapping the shit out of that bass! Killer!!!
hahahaha, that is actually pretty funny! thanks for the laugh
im still wondering how the fuck metallica made it bigger than testament -.-
Same here....the answer is simple. Metallica was first and came out with more commercial friendly hits......Most real metal fans realize Testament is as good or better that's all that matters
So di I
i work with the guitar player every now an then most humble fucker you'll ever meet
Because let's be honest they have why more awesome riffs and that's just a fact I'm mean come on if you want me to list them just look at all 5 of the first albums
Essa é a melhor live dessa música !
There is absolutley no way 0:05 was Chuck's CLEAN vocals O_O
Alex Skolnick is one of my heroes
Testament!!!!
There's nothing like Disciples of the watch, original version.
They obviously toured through NC and SC not long before this. I say this because Chuck is wearing a COC shirt and they are from Raleigh,NC ,and Greg is wearing a Myrtle Beach shirt and there is only one Myrtle Beach!
It's time now... to OBEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEY!!!!
\m/ Chuck's so fucking awesome!
Not only is the song fucking awsome! The title for it is reallycool too:P
Testament is bad ass!
Death Angel is a bad ass thrash metal band but I dont know if that would be in your top favorites, Seems to be a band that peoeple forget about.

Read the lyrics and then watch the movie Children of the Corn you will then know all similarities. Besides Chuck said that movie was his influence for the song!
