Customer Ratings & Reviews

Great cd from beginning to end definitely recommend picking up the brotherhood of the snake

"The Very Best Of" Testament is an enormously grand album to buy, especially if you do not own any Testament at all. This album will get you on the right track in building your Testament music collection. There are 15 infamous Thrash tunes to be had here, every song has it's own signature of Thrash greatness. Testament was passed the torch of Thrash and ran with it, creating their very own sound with the guitar expertise of Eric Peterson and Alex Skolnick. The guitar playing will blow you away! The formidable bass of Greg Christian and the blasts of Thrash on drums by Louie Clemente will push the Metal meter to overload. "Practice What You Preach", "Burnt Offerings" and "The Ritual" are three songs worth their weight in Thrash gold. I cannot give lead vocalist Chuck Billy enough praise, he is the most courageous flag bearer of Thrash Metal today. Chuck Billy can belt out Thrash, Death and old school Metal vocals like a true champion of all three genres. I encourage all Metal fans to buy this album. New fans of Testament simply have to know these songs and enjoy them! Alex Skolnick and Eric Peterson are so skilled at their craft, with Chuck Billy leading the way, Testament is guaranteed to satisfy any Thrash hunger you have! I am grateful that Testament still plays these songs as strong and loud today as they did years ago. Keep it Thrashing Testament and thank you Chuck Billy for staying so strong. The liner notes are Thrashtastic, with 16 pages of Testament history, song & album credits and many incredible band photos. The liner notes history details the Testament lineup changes, with timelines. Excellent added stuff to catch you up on Testament & their legacy!
