Testament - D. N. R. & Three Days In Darkness (Dark Roots Of Thrash 2013)

[@mexikong00]

I have been listening to these guys for 30 years and I never get tired of hearing them play. Truly one of the best metal bands ever. They don't get the credit they deserve in my opinion.

[@TheBoinger5150]

Oh yeah I totally agree they are very bad ass. Another 1 of those bands that I go and see whenever they come close within 50 miles from home.

[@burritokraut1987]

Seriously.... never.

[@motherlovinsnuffstar]

Grossly underrated!!!

[@richr1029]

I could not agree more with this statement....

[@jerseydeviljohnnyfeds9347]

Fucking A right

[@DustinWHiser]

DNR is the greatest thrash metal song of all time. Come at me!

[@SuperGogakis]

I will stand next to you as they come!

[@brandensalinas9874]

As I will stand with you my metal brethren 🤘

[@Metalton95]

Apocalyptic City, Burnt Offerings, Fall of Sipledome, The New Order, The Formation of Damnation, Stronghold.. and that's just some of better thrash songs from Testament. Dead Embryonic Cells, Desperate Cry, Slaves of Pain, T.D.S. (Take it as you will), Bodies on Bodies, Kill on Command, Blackened, Damage Inc, Disposable Heroes, Ghosts of War, Crypts of Eternity, Silent Scream, Captor of Sin, Some Pain Will Last, When The Sun Burns Red, Coma of Souls, Awakening of the Gods, Riot of Violence, Phantom Antichrist, Totalitarian Terror, Army of Storms, March Into Fire, Follow Me, Through Eyes of Glass, Twisted Into Form, Infinite, Fabulous Disaster, Strike of the Beast - I could go on... DNR doesn't even have any climax to begin with, it doesn't build up to anything special, despite having awesome riffs and a good, up-beat tempo.

[@billyreynolds4749]

@@Metalton95 - Look...no one here wants to debate something that everyone has their own opinion on!!! I agree that DNR is a great pounding thrash metal song!!!! Best ever??? For some people Yes! For others...No! Let's just agree that Testament kicks ass, period!!

[@salvatoretotoriina9523]

@@theodosios2615 yes

[@blppt]

I think his most important skill is the ability to play just about anything in metal, and unlike people who cover other people's songs (cough cough lombardo), he doesn't leave out any of the iconic fills. Also one of the strongest, most consistent feet in metal. May not be the fastest drummer who ever lived, but he's probably the most consistent live.

Underrated is an understatement. One of the best that we will hear for the rest of our lives.

Testament and Overkill are both better bands than Anthrax. I think most real metal heads know this. I respect Scott Ian but Alex Skolnik is a legitimate thrash titan.

[@editorrbr2107]

[@jerry42023]

truer words have never been spoken

[@Retrorevelations]

Sounds great. Seeing Alex play these songs is a trip, bad ass to see him busting them out.

[@kevinw8688]

One of Erik's best riffs he has ever written. Look at that talent? Chuck, EP, Gregor on bass (I know Steve Digiogio, a master himself, would soon came back on bass), and the incomparable lead guitar of Alek Skolnick and on drums one of the greatest drummers in metal history. Talent in excess here.

[@arvindshastry1178]

In my opinion Alex Skolnick and Eric Peterson are one of the greatest guitar duo of all time

[@tylerdees4850]

Outstanding.

[@DeadZone318]

I seen them in the early 90’s at The Back Room in Austin, Tx. I lost a game of pool to Chuck and told him “if you can do that again I’ll turn you onto some acid.” He smoked me on the pool table again. So that night me, a roadie & Chuck tripped balls. He would run over to the side of the stage where we were, point at us and say “I’m fucked!” Yet he was business as usual while singing! My 21st birthday that night!
