Chuck is a legend. The man beat cancer and the decline of thrash during the 90's. Testament shows that a band need not bend to media and commercial influence. They continue to put out quality music and remain true to their sound despite any trend. Cheers and much respect.

The Legacy was my first Testament cd. I think Chuck's voice has given away some of the balladness it used to have. Otherwise, still a mother f***er of a vocalist. Why couldn't they focus on the guy during the solo? He played that spot on.

i was very impressed with billy's vocals when i saw em at metal masters. he sounded just like the record. excellent!

though im usually a sucker for an orchestra, i think they could've put the music together better. sounds kinda cliche what they did, but i supposed im being overly critical and ticky tacky as usual ;)

cool none-the-less.

now playing: arcturus - to thou who dwellest in the night
