      If I'm not mistaken they were considered one of the BIG 5 along with Megadeth, Metallica, Anthrax and Slayer...Personally I've always been partial to Megadeth but Testament definitely kicks ass, I love everything about their sound and their lyrics are more intelligent than most, from what I've seen.

      Ive seen slayer a bunch since the early 90s and I never though they tapped out unless you consider the albums after diaboli in musica a tap out but I though that’s when they got angrier and more metal. I remember getting god Hates us all when it came out (9/11) and thinking fuck...this is heavy and angry this is slayer!! World painted album was awesome but the guitars had a low distortion gain which made it seem weak but I still liked it.

    • @archangel5627
      @archangel5627 4 роки тому +13

      Personally I think Slayer hasn’t sounded the same or as good after Jeff Hanneman passed away. No disrespect to Gary Holt but I think a big part of what made Slayer was what Jeff Hanneman contributed to the band. When it comes to replacements, I think Gary Holt is probably the best choice but I still think something is missing. I will say that Anthrax has been killing it these days. I really like their last few albums with Joey Belladonna. To me Belladonna was always the quintessential Anthrax vocalist. Now Testament not only has the best line up they’ve ever had but the last three albums might be some of their best work! I’m loving Titans Of Creation! What a sick and Badass record!

    This song is based on the "Heavens Gate cult" which was a cult in where they belived that Christ was gonna send aliens and save the good ppl on earth while the rest of humanity suffered. This cult had u mandatorily cut ur gentitals off. And this whole cult committed suicide as they claimed to go to the next plane of exsistence.

      You forgot one other thing: TRUTH! The World needed to know what really happened concerning the "Heaven's Gate" cult, which, of course, turned out to be another Death Cult, complete with promises of seeing God, Paradise, Purity...and were told that all they had to do, when the time was right, was Overdose on Phenobarbital. Stuff like this, and stuff like "Organized Religion", where they do what THEY want to do, instead of following the Bible, is the exact reason why I don't go to Church anymore. I don't care for any "Religion" that adds to, or subtracts from, the Word of God! I'll just be in my own space, living my life the best that I know how! Testament really delivered on this song!
