Haha, I know nothing about thrash compared to most people on here!

I don't deserve respect at all bruv. Just cause I talk a lot doesn't mean it's worth anything.
Gee.... I don't know about the rest of you guys, but lately the only things that truly motivate me are erections and bowel movements.

Thank the Police coming straight from the underground...

Leagacy and New Order are just about as good as each other for me. Perhaps Legacy is just slightly better. Apocalyptic City is such an absolute belter of a tune that it might just swing it.

As for Formation of Damnation? Meh... not thrashy enough! Too typically modern and bland and characterless for me. a couple of good songs and not much more than that.

The old stuff is fecking deadly though...

The Ritual I think is slightly better than I expect
but still a so so release
I prefer LOW more

and how you guys think about the Gathering? I dont care what line up they had,
I totally don't like that shit

Souls Of Black worth to get dude!
they back to more straight forward style after Practice,
but too bad it's not as good as the first two

I always think it's sad that when they have more bright ideas, they go release Practice
I dont really like it, then they back to form in souls of black
if back in the days they can release an album that have the best of these two
they can make one more classic like legacy and new order
but whatever, im just bitching
what have done is done

The Gathering is one of the best sounding metal albums ever. production is beyond great. Amazing album from start to finish.

Best Testament album is one of the first 2 though. Practice was also badass but I'd have to go for New Order. Legacy is immense.

You bunch of fucking wrong 'uns. :)

ALL TESTAMENT IS GOOD TESTAMENT.

I am a fan boy. There isn't a single one of their songs that I find unlistenable. They rip dick. Fully rip dick.

Different strokes for different bumpokes though I s'pose.

Low is underrated, nice one BK! That was my favourite by them for a long, long time... nowadays it tends to switch up constantly. I haven't listened to testament in ages actually, I'll have to give them a spin this afternoon

Yeah Low is good release
not timeless classic but Testament really know how to do 90' groove/post whatever thrash right
