Classic Album of the Day 2/10/09: Testament - The Gathering

[Klschmann]

I still remember when I bought this album, it was at Best Buy on release day. 

At least you got THIS ONE at the time!!!

 

I remember running into my guitar teacher in line at the same BB and he was buying the other copy.

I also recall buying a Soilwork album with it, Preadator's Portrait I believe.

I think V is referencing the MANY albums on your "must buy" list,,,,,ones that you didn't purchase at the time of their release,,,,,

I didn't take offense, it just took a few seconds for me to get what you were talking about.

Testament was one of the more "underground" (aka, not the big 4) thrash bands that I did get into in the mid 90's, so I was always around for their new stuff.  The first new Testament album I remember buying was Low.

[moshdrum69]

I didn't take offense

How rude,,,,,oh wait,,,,,no it's not,,,,,

[Klschmann]

mosh is so silly.

Man, DNR was such an amazing opening tune.  I saw them twice on the Gathering tour, both were great shows (minus the one hour mic sound check, and then when Chuck came out I couldn't hear the vocals for the first 4 songs). 

[moshdrum69]

I have the live bootleg, "Gathered At Dynamo",,,,,good stuff,,,,,

[mak28]

A very good album but I'll kind of stop there.  There are a good 6 or so amazing tracks DNR, Down For Life, The Fall of Sipledome, Three Days of Darkness, Legions of The Dead, and True Believer but the rest I can take or leave.  Nothing bad about it but a middle level Testament album for me.
