Testament Photos, video and sound question answered

[Guitar Goddess]

Hey Everyone....

Here are a couple of links for Testament and Metal Masters photos from the shows in MA and CT, they were taken by photographer Tom Couture.....

On Tom's MySpace blog he talks about the sound problems at the Worcester MA show which was the topic of another post here on the board and explains why the sound was so overpowering and loud.....

I was at the Worcester, MA show and even though the sound was very loud and the venue was shaking the show was still amazing and the band played a great set......

Here is a link to a recent interview with the band and near the end they talk a little bit about the status of the "More Than Meets The Eye" video....

Hey that was really cool thank's! It seemed like all the fuss was made over Alex.I'm glad Gregg is getting some cover.
It was strange to here that Testaments favorite songs on the album are " Formation and Leave me" ( also mine) but they made videos for 2 other songs I wonder why? I find it hard to believe it's because they are a little.. not commercial but tamer maybe? Because as a metal head I would love to see the heaviest songs get the videos.Maybe it's just another case of the establishment not understanding metal?Anybody know?

Where can I get one of those shirts?

I don't think they're for sale. The band always had some merchandise only for themselves and the crew. I've been waiting for Testament workshirts for years...

 

[redfly]

I was afraid of that! Thanks though.

Wow, I think that's the most I've ever heard Greg talk. Cool interview.

I think the best piece of advise Gregg gave is 'Don't follow trends'. So many bands from the 80's have tried to be grunge / alternative or nu metal to disastrous effect. Hats off to Testament to carrying the old school flame and make it stay cool!
