I first saw Testament live in the fall of 1987 as the opening act for Anthrax in Essen, Germany. I had never heard of them before. Never stopped listening to them since.
I don't think it's the best debut. We also have Alice In Hell by Annihilator. It isn't better than The Legacy, but they are equally good, so I think they are the two best debuts.
This is the album. Every piece fits together to create one great hard rock song after another. One of the best heavy metal albums ever! Thank you men for your hard work. Let me say more. The blending of the lyrics and music fashion clear visual imagery. Rush, Black Sabbath, Judas Priest, Iron Maiden, Testament! Testament earned their place in the preceding sentence with their first two albums. Additionally, Practice, Souls, The Ritual cement this legacy. Lastly, I need a band who can back up live what they've put down on wax. In Ft Lauderdale and Honolulu they did just that. Thank you for Legacy and New Order remasters. COTLOD!
FANTASTIC SONGS. OFF A FANTASTIC ALBUM. A THRASH MASTERPIECE IN MY OPINION. A SOLID FUCKIN 10. THIS WHOLE ALBUM KICKS ASS AND DELIVERS. GUITAR GOD. ALEX SKOLNICK. HORNS UP. 🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼
I love this band! Can’t wait for the next album and for the these remasters to be on cd. I still have my original disc and cassette 🤘🤘🤘 P.S. I t would be really great if you could redo Reign Of Terror and put it on disc!
One of the truly greats in Thrash Metal Debuts there is every fire in this Album and one of the best debut Albums of all time, Testament Rules since and then now☺🤘🔥.
No, they don’t. None of them did. They’re beloved classics for very good reason, and there was no need to “modern them up” beyond the obvious fact that people are dying to spend their money on stuff like this.
I can't think of any thrash debut album that got to this level. It was mind blowing at the time. If it was released today, with modern, heavier production and Chuck's death growling, would be fantastic!! Masterpiece indeed!🤘🤘
Young Metal musicians should also pay attention to the songs structure,, it’s an art to write and record music that lasts decades. Great album to learn how to be what you want. This is a beautifully remastered album.
Finally, a remaster has been made. Waited a long time. An excellent debut album with a much clearer sound. Thank you so much guys for your remastered youth.👍🤘
@GoldenGateNum9 Dave is the shit also. He used to be an alchemist. Chris Poland is a bad ass, Marty Friedman,... there are many bad ass guitar players out there. 🤘 😎
That's pretty wicked! I never put that together, and I've been listening to both, since their respective release.🤦♂️ Ironically (or coincidentally) both videos were filmed in/around/at a prison!!
Ordered this from Rockway records store after reading about them and hearing some of it. i got it on cd it came in the long form box, the drummer from FF was working there and handed it to me way back. Saw them a bunch of times, at the troubador with violence and at the country club many times, also went to the show in ventura where Louie quit the band they canelled the show said they would make it up but never did and lost out. Wish i could afford this remaster on vinyl though.
I was skeptical because many remasters disappointed me...but this one...wow!!!...it further enhances the masterpiece that is this album, enjoying every second of everything...especially wall, offerings, haunted and waters !!
Remastered?! Aw cmon! Havent you heard? All the cool kids(the Cavaleras) are re-recording their epic classics. While this remaster sounds decent enough, just imagine!
One of the very best debut albums in Thrash History! And (for me) the best Testament album!
Finally remastered!!! :)
I bought this on cassette on July 4th 1987 having never heard of them
Cover, label and producer checked off
One of the truly great debuts

There isn't a time where Over the Wall fails to make me feel like I could head butt my way through 12' of solid steel.

You mean head BANG!! 🤘🤘

"Apocalyptic City" is the spike that pins this monster to the wall. The Legacy is
...the only TESTAMENT record I still play, 40 years later.
I still have the cd of this I bought in 2004 along with the next 3 albums and the ritual which I bought years later

Used to see them when they were called Legacy and Zetro was the singer. I think I still have their demo recording somewhere.
Sounds a bit clearer than the original.
Good job, Testament!
The Legacy is a classic.

Sounds crisp and clearer. Also, not sure if I heard that bass guitar before but this version's bass sound is. Nice!

This is Gold! To hear this classic album in all its glory is amazing. Thank you!
Wore this tape out in my mustang.
My all time favorite album
Bought original vinyl lp in 87 and just ordered remastered splatter vinyl 🤘🤘
One of my favorite thrash albums🤘
1987-2024: still fuckin' relevant!
The first time was 1987 at Dynamo open air Eindhoven, Awesome.
Definitely one of the best Thrash Metal albums ever recorded. This is OG Thrash right here.
Finally, a remaster has been made. Waited a long time. An excellent debut album with a much clearer sound. Thank you so much guys for your remastered youth.👍🤘
Skolnick is an absolute beast.
For you, Jeff Waters (Annihilator) Dave Mustaine ( Megadeth ) for me 🤘😆
@GoldenGateNum9 Dave is the shit also. He used to be an alchemist. Chris Poland is a bad ass, Marty Friedman,... there are many bad ass guitar players out there. 🤘 😎
FUCK YES!
Masterpiece \m/
Listen to the intro of over the wall then to the intro of repentless by slayer
That's pretty wicked! I never put that together, and I've been listening to both, since their respective release.🤦♂️ Ironically (or coincidentally) both videos were filmed in/around/at a prison!!
I love the sound of old school thrash...raw
The best 👍😉
I love the sorcerer's vibe
Absolute Masterpiece,cheers from Argentina.🇦🇷
One of the greatest thrash metal albums 🤘👹🤘

Bought the Lp back in '91. Thank you for this remastered version.
Such a badass album. I had the demo when they were called Legacy.
Alone in the Dark is such a banger.
The remaster vinyl showed up yesterday and sounds and looks amazing ❤️ Thank you for this release
In love with Amazing sound.
Testament incredible.

In my opinion it is still the best testament album
A fuckin' solid 10 out of 10!!💪.. Well done TESTAMENT!!🇺🇸👏
they where in holland in1986 and i whas there in zwolle the nederlands ,sooooo good live.
And i still have the album at home.
Having seen Testament many times it's weird hearing Over The Wall and the part at 33 seconds in without Chuck going "ALLLLLLL RIGHT!"
Testament is great, the first album 1987. I'm glad they Remastered!
if i dont manage to see slayer this year guys, i'll see you in winnipeg 🤘🤘🤘🔥🔥🔥
If you really want a great copy of this album, get the first German pressing on vinyl.
Sounds great. I'll buy if it comes to CD.
This remaster sounds good, if you want more drums and bass.
I've never heard them play it live, but Apocalyptic City is one of my favorite tracks off this album.
One of my favorite albums by Testament 🤘
Congratulations guys for the remaster,i'm 48 old and still listening, for me one of the best álbuns of Trash metal ever!!
🤟🇵🇹
Espetacular!!!
Curse of the Legions of Death
OVER THE WALL!!! 🥹🤘
Fabulous album in my top 5 of all times
His best album. Hail Testament!
It sounds like it always should' have. I only have an issue with this: why didn't they add the song Reign of Terror? This album changed my life.
Respect the Old School Bands ❤
Greatest band of all f**king time.
See you in Katowice 11th December 2024🤘🔥🤘🔥🤘
