TESTAMENT!! 🤘💀🤘 the absolute best who NEVER compromised their sound! They always gave their fans exactly what we wanted! Amazing talent amazing sound!!
Eric Peterson seriously upgraded his lead guitar skills on the later albums. He used to play one or two leads on the old thrash albums and played a little bit more of them during the 90s but mostly kept it quite simple. Nowadays he plays like 1/3 of the solos and shreds like a beast ahah
Once Alex Skolnick said, that Master Of Puppets album is like Bible of Thrash metal. So, you can say about Metallica whatever you want, but their influence is indisputable.
Can confirm. Metallica does indeed suck. Once upon a time they didn't. Testament is one of the few metal bands, Anthrax as well. Who have only gotten better over time.
@@НиколайГолодов-э1и This is what Testament sounds like live. Its just been mixed and remastered, not overwritten/edited. There are plenty of amateur live videos on RU-vid that will testify that this sort of precision is the norm for them, the only difference is that some instruments or vocals will sound too loud/too soft or not be EQ'd to sound their best, because the mixing engineer is mixing to make it sound good to the crowd, not to make it sound good on tape (as someone who has mixed bands live I can tell you it is different), and also the phone/camera microphone being used by the fan to record it will have its limitations in how well it can truly capture the sound.
@@andrewawakened628 Well, Testament DO sound great live, but at 5:45 you can clearly see that Alex's sustained note and the sound from the recording does not match.
@@Metalton95 ok...but that doesn't mean it wasn't live audio, could just be the video editor messed up the syncing or used different video footage in the wrong place. Of course it is always possible there was some overdubbing done to clean some things up, but I'm sure its not the case that all sound has been overwritten like the original poster said.
@@andrewawakened628 Of course not, you can hear Eric messing up at 3:38-3:45, but like most modern metal DVD's, there's bound to be some re-recorded overdubs. I'm just happy that Testament don't over-do it like others. I still (mostly) prefer watching recordings from the crowds, to get their noise in there as well :D
Testament is like wine, the older they get the better they play!!! ......while Metallica continue keeping their live performances weaker over the years!!!
The music is absolutely amazing, very tight especially for such a difficult and fast song. The sound of as done absolutely to perfection. The video editing and post effects are a bit lame though.
I agree. It sounds like they've mixed the album's vocals with Chuck's live ones here---you can hear the album's vocal effects at times during the song. Also, watching Alex soloing---he's not hitting the fretboard at times when notes are coming out of the speakers---and he's not playing an open string to get those notes. Telltale signs that there has been heavy postsession editing in the studio. I have a feeling this is 50/50 live/studio at best.
