Whoaaaa - what a fucking killer show - me and the missus are there!!!!
For those of you who HAVENT seen this afternoon's press release...
"San Francisco thrash metal legends TESTAMENT will play their classic first two albums — "The Legacy" and "The New Order" — for one night only at Islington Academy in London, England on March 25.
This unique "Metal Hammer Presents..." event will showcase the face-melting albums that kick-started the TESTAMENT story and helped create a monumental legacy that now stretches over 25 years. The set is also set to include a neck-cracking encore that will be drawn from the very best of the rest of the band's back catalog, possibly including cuts from the group's 2008 Metal Hammer Golden Gods "Album Of The Year", "The Formation Of Damnation".
Founding guitarist Eric Peterson spoke exclusively to Metal Hammer about this one-off event: "If anybody's gonna get a special show it's London! They don't say the term 'London Rocks' around the world for nothing! Oi! We will expect all the legions to be present at this show! Heavy futten met-all!"
This fucker is gonna sell out quick so get ya tickets ASAP - they're already on sale!!!
See you in the pit!!!
Edit: Upon searching for tickets I would also like to inform you guys that there are a couple of dates AROUND the Priest Feast shows that (to my knowledge) havent been very well advertised in the UK press - for instance I wasnt aware until just now that Testament were playing their OWN headline shows here in Feb and supporting Megadeth too at one show.
