Testament have been consistently great throughout their time. They are effectively a super group, as each of them are considered among the best at their positions.
Excellent reaction and the vid is indeed awesome! Horns up!!! Btw, I love at the beginning of the guitar solo, the guitar turns in to a horse because of the whammy technique that gives it the horse like sound!
They never sold their souls like Metallica did, and always had a lot of power in their delivery. As my man is saying above - solid solos, solid riffs. Absolutely.
Alex Skolnick is AWESOME!! He is incredibly humble. He also played with the TransSiberian Orchestra for a few years. Highly recommend going to one of their shows if/when live shows return to the world. He's also got a trio Jazz band
Always my favorite thrash Band by far. As i said before, look Who plays in Testament.... the best thrash has to offer Hoglan digiorgio skolnik peterson Billy Doesnt get better
Glad you made your way back here. The new album kills. One of their best IMO. Look forward to more from them on here. Maybe Overkill and Exodus, as well... Peace!
Totally recognizable sound. Could it be that the maker of this vid made the vid of the newer Obituary too? Very solid song. They are getting even better with the years.
so, there was a cult called 'Heaven's Gate' the guy w the white hair and crazy eyes was the leader "39 who took the ride" they committed suicide, it was weird. Google it. I was on the sidewalk outside Stubbs and a bus pulled up and Testament got out, i didn't recognize them at first, i was like 'nice guitar!' (..and this and that) I got into that show for free, Megadeth headlined. Oh i see you googled it, i started this comment before vid ended (:
Testament is my favourite trashmetal band since 1988 The New Order album. Go, check it out! They have that groove on their music but at the same time quite brutal..
Anthrax had one EXCELLENT album in 1987. Since then they've had a few good moments, especially on their last 2 albums. Overrated, no way. They've been eating shit since the early 90s and still kept at it, still putting out good (occasionally great) music. Testament underrated: I totally agree there! Way better than Anthrax (sorry Scott!). These guys need to be heard by every metal fan that exists. It bugs the hell out outta me that there are people who love Metallica or Slayer, yet never even heard of Testament. The world ain't fair sometimes.
@@henrym7427 First demo came out 1985 and Souza was on vocals (he went to Exodus=. First album came out 1987 and Chuck was on vocals so i agree the first album, but not year 1985 or Souza on vocals 😁.
i have a suggestion of a band i haven't seen here yet. Sabaton. now while most would say to listen to Bismark, i feel like people get too hung up on the video and fail to really hear the music for what it is. Instead i would suggest listening to Attack of the Dead Men. this band does nothing but historical war and battle music, and has some great impactful songs about them. i'd also say dont go much into the research about the song though, as i feel like either before or after listening to it you should read the history fact in the description of it, as a part of the reaction. before would clarify a lot of the lyrics, but i feel like reading it after would intensify the meaning of the song while it's fresh in your mind. especially if you pay attention to the text mid song that isn't sung. but at the end of the day Sabaton is a power metal band, and i've heard few songs that can compete with the power of theirs.
You have to react to Night of the Witch from the same album. Awesome song!! I agree that Testament is very underrated and should have been in the big four. Matter of fact they are better and more consistent then the others at this point.
Man, y'all should listen to the entire Scorpion's 'World Wide Live' album, i think your wife would luv it. Other recommendations; Ozzy: Bark at the Moon Shot in the Dark Centre of Eternity Rock n' Roll Rebel Believer Over The Mountain Diary of a Madman Suicide Solution No More Tears Thunder Underground Perry Mason Mama I'm Coming Home ..

"Electric Crown" is a good one...despite some of the Metal "purists" poo-pooin it. (Still waiting for somebody to recommend Megadeth's "Reckoning Day")
another one criminally underrated is corrosion of conformity more to them than clean my wounds and albatross both great but they have tons of rockin stuff to describe them i say black sabbath and lynyrd skynyrd had a baby n they came out

You'd dig their new song from the album "Dream Deceiver". That was probably my favorite from it.
By far the best song on the New album Dream Deceiver
Great song
Holy shit the solo on that song left me speechless
This album just came out this year and it's pretty awesome.
Testament is a great band
Their first album:
Over the wall
Alone in the dark
And the album the new order is one of their best albums
Testament blows away metallica part 2!!!
Yup , i think thats why Testament wasn’t invited to The Big 4 concert. They would outshined Metallica .
This, in my opinion is one of Testaments best songs..🤘🤘🤘🤘
One of my favorite songs by Testament 🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽
This track is unbelievable. I listen to this numerous times a day
Excellent reaction and the vid is indeed awesome! Horns up!!! Btw, I love at the beginning of the guitar solo, the guitar turns in to a horse because of the whammy technique that gives it the horse like sound!
Strong album. They are a very consistent band. The album gets better each time you hear it. More and more is revealed with each listen.
Seen this band 4 or 5 times live... they have some amazing music.
The whole album is amazing. Testament did not disappoint they never do !
Over the wall, dnr, night of the witch . there one of the best most underrated bands on this planet.......
They never sold their souls like Metallica did, and always had a lot of power in their delivery. As my man is saying above - solid solos, solid riffs. Absolutely.
You nailed it! Highly underrated and should be part of the big 4
Alex Skolnick is AWESOME!! He is incredibly humble. He also played with the TransSiberian Orchestra for a few years. Highly recommend going to one of their shows if/when live shows return to the world. He's also got a trio Jazz band

As i said before, look Who plays in Testament.... the best thrash has to offer
Hoglan digiorgio skolnik peterson Billy

4:42 You missed something so funny here 😂
This guy’s a legend. No bullshit. Just jumping into the thrash and rocking out.
Glad you made your way back here. The new album kills. One of their best IMO. Look forward to more from them on here. Maybe Overkill and Exodus, as well... Peace!
React to Practice what You Preach. Some of their earlier stuff
And the Legacy album...
Practice what you preach and sins of omission
Totally recognizable sound. Could it be that the maker of this vid made the vid of the newer Obituary too? Very solid song. They are getting even better with the years.
Indeed, IIRC they did 2 videos for Obituary.
One of my favorite to play on bass. Yessss
Man has taste and sense for musicality, cheers!
they killed it on that song !!!
Like I said before they should've been in the big 4 man. Great reaction my friend. Yes sir my second favorite band. Megadeth#1
The vocals are my favorite part I can't believe this was made in 2020!
Good stuff.....do some Overkill !
The other big 4
Testament
Overkill
Exodus
Death Angel
Overkill necroshine
Death Angel is killer , bay area thrash metal !
Overkill - Nice Day for a Funeral

33 years on the top metal band.

Anthrax: overrated
Testament: underrated
Wrong, both bands amazing, dont listen to this guy
Anthrax had one EXCELLENT album in 1987. Since then they've had a few good moments, especially on their last 2 albums. Overrated, no way. They've been eating shit since the early 90s and still kept at it, still putting out good (occasionally great) music.

@@benrichardson7306 bro their first album in 1985 was the best. Better than kill em all. Vocalist was amazing.
@@henrym7427 First demo came out 1985 and Souza was on vocals (he went to Exodus=. First album came out 1987 and Chuck was on vocals so i agree the first album, but not year 1985 or Souza on vocals 😁.
Anthrax has a couple cool songs but they're too abrasive and repetitive boring.
i have a suggestion of a band i haven't seen here yet.

"Disciples of the Watch "is one you shouldnt skip over.. its one of the top thrash metaL tunes of all time ...

Definitely should replace Anthrax with Testament in the Big 4. I love Anthrax, but Testament is a better band.
I have all of their studio albums. You should check out earlier songs. Like Practice What You Preach. It’s a great one.
F dam## song, I love this song, I love testament. Very underrated band.
Need to listen to D.N.R. THAT SONG THRASHES YOUR NUTS OFF!!!!
Man, y'all should listen to the entire Scorpion's 'World Wide Live' album, i think your wife would luv it.

You should react to DNR by Testament 🤘🏼
Fuck yeah... Lombardo on drums that album
Jason Loza He manages to make whatever he is doing sound incredible 🤘🏼
Beer Hound's Beer Reviews! For sure!
Awesome band and album
I don’t know either but like you said this band is heavily underrated. But I do know the older they get the better they sound and play.
I seen them with slayer
Try night of the witch same album
Check out "Over the Wall"! You'll love it!
Damn this is mixed well
another one criminally underrated is corrosion of conformity more to them than clean my wounds and albatross both great but they have tons of rockin stuff to describe them i say black sabbath and lynyrd skynyrd had a baby n they came out
Totally agree that testament should have been one of the big four.
Other youtubers can take a lesson from you how to balance the video audio volume with your speech audio. Well done!
The REAL Big 4
Testament
Exodus
Forbidden
Vio-lence
shouldv'e been in "the big four" and bounce anthrax nuttin against them but testament has been dope for decades
They should’ve been in the big four, not instead of Anthrax, but they should’ve replaced Metallica
@@FNM98765 hahah
That cult was really screwed I remember that story on news back in the 90s I think
If you want something HEAVIER and with more ENERGY react to Open eye by Orbit culture, like Metallica on steroids....
React to Chevelle - Well Enough Alone, pls. You'll be the first in yt to react to that song!
Check out The Evil Has Landed by Testament. Its their take on 9/11
Testament was excluded from the big 4 in the 80s and personally I think they’re now superior to all of the big 4 even Metallica
Slayer > Testament > megadeth > metallica > anthrax for me
I love Testament but Gojira blows all these bands away. Check out Gojira- Pray live from Red Rocks. Epic performance
Grow a pair
