Next Testament CD

Looking on Testament's FB page, a good amount of people have the album already.



I'm jealous.
 
Ok, can you tell us who are still waiting more, please? :confused: Any favourites yet? Biggest surprises? I simply cannot wait for tomorrow and am beginning to fear I should have ordered it online instead of going to the store as usual. I don't know what to do when no store in my neighbourhood has it tomorrow already. :waah:
 
It's another great Testament album. I like it more than Formation but not more than The Gathering. Man Kills Mankind is a new favorite. The covers are really cool, especially Powerslave. The only weak point is the ballad Cold Embrace. I've never much liked their ballads in the past and this one is pretty much a yawner.
 
I love their ballads, so it's not unlikely I'll appreciate this one too. As for the covers, I'm pretty excited about Dragon Attack, especially that Eric has said it's not just a karaoke version, but one with a lot of Testament's creative input. I love the original (but am not a Queen fan in general) and hope they made good use of the possibilities this song leaves (it's very spacey and good for a thrashy jam session). Can't wait to hear Chuck on this one.
 
Personally I love the ballad, but I do like the others so oh well. Early favs are Rise Up, Dark Roots of Earth, True American Hate, A Day in the Death, Cold Embrace. The whole record is smokin basically. The dvd is good too. About a 30 minute documentary, 20 minute live show, and Eric and Alex break down some gear for almost 10 min. So you get almost an hour dvd. The sound on the live part could've been better but, nothing compares to the Live in London dvd for sound.
 
Well, the leak now was obvious since so many people got the album earlier. Still great it hasn't leaked earlier. Hopefully this will help the sales.
 
Only other album recently to not leak until release was Periphery II.



This pretty much counts too, it's 7/27 somewhere in Europe.
 
Yeah, I've been busy and tied up with a bunch of stuff. It sucks that somebody leaked it, but I think once people hear it, they'll buy it. It's a strong record for sure.
 
I am now wishing that I had done that too! :(

It figures,the one time I don't! lol I can't believe people in the US have gotten it already.Now I'm behind! I am going to the store as soon as it comes out here...they better have it!
The cdjapan site blows.They still don't even have a picture of the album.No info on bonus material.No info at all, except to say that it's only one disc.

I was considering buying the album from Japan, and I'm now very relieved that I didn't do that! lol

I live in the UK, so I'll be checking out the stores tomorrow to see if they have it...
