I couldnt agree more Matt. Testament are a legendary thrash band and its completely unjust that they should be in support for that pile of sh**e

Yeah, I've been feeling this way for a while. Testament is supporting all kinds of bands they should be headlining with and taking opening slots for tours when they should have decent set lengths instead. Perhaps they do not have the power to draw the big crowds themselves like some of these bands, but I feel like they are selling themselves short sometimes as well.

I agree with you almost 100% Deathbringer. But I've seen their drawing power at the Powerfest and let me tell you, it was pretty intense how many people showed up for Testament.

We all know the industry these day's is more about popularity than talent these day's.Maybe it's time TESTAMENT started there own festival.That could potentially put them where they oughta be.It's not like they don't deserve it.They've been around more than long enough.
