What is your favourite song off Dark Roots of Earth

[one man]

I think the album's been out for long enough now to start the poll. So let's see what's the most popular after 1 month.

It's a tough choice, but I'm going with A Day in the Death. It's innovative, yet undeniably Testament, kinda proggy, has great riffs, an amazing solo, many changes and Chuck really shines on it. It's both heavy and catchy as hell. Honorable mentions to the title track, Throne of Thorns and Cold Embrace.

I adore the covers, but wouldn't vote for a cover or an instrumental for that matter as a favourite track.


Oh, here are the links to the earlier polls, in case anyone hasn't voted there yet:

The only song I didn't get into yet is Rise up, although I'm sure it will work live very fine.

So, after 2 weeks it seems A Day in the Death is the favourite song. I admit that I didn't expect it to get 100% votes

I don't think I could pick one song. I have to agree, A Day in the Death has really become a favorite of mine too. True American Hate and Deadly Embrace and the title track. I guess it depends on what my mood is at the moment.

 

[one man]

was the pun with Deadly Embrace intended? He hasn't posted here for years.

I keep spelling the title wrong too.

 

[anomynous]

Throne of Thorns easily.




Even though the extended version as a bonus is the most retarded thing ever.

Ah crap. No, I wasn't paying attention. I should lay off the crack pipe more often.

I went with Throne of Thorns. Great song. They did a great version of Powerslave, but I've got to go with the origianl song, not a cover tune.
