Californian thrash metal outfit Testament were recently in the UK for a run of four UK tour dates supporting tenth studio album ‘Dark Roots of Earth’. Stereoboard were at their Manchester show last week, check out all the on-stage action below.
Regarded as one of the most popular of the 80s thrash scene, few bands have the capability to survive line-up changes, health crises and over 25 years of recording and touring, only to come out the other side primed to impress once again. Legendary Bay Area thrashers Testament are one of the few living legends of the thrash metal scene who are able to evoke the same strong emotions as they did in the 1980s and who truly grow with each album without abandoning the substance and integrity they are known for.
With their latest album 'Dark Roots Of Earth,' they have proven once again that there is no stopping their relentless talent - with the band even managing to reach their highest chart position ever at Number 12.
