Chuck's Voice has not aged a day

[@chilichad]

Big Chuck and the boys still destroying!!!!!!

[@TheAngryDoughnut]

I think it has, in a good way. I think his aged voice made him sound more badass.

[@richardsoto2393]

Yeah definetly not the same vocals especially on "Over the Wall" but not bad for a 50+ metalhead

[@rattlehead999]

but his breathing has, he should lose weight as age has caught up to him.

[@Gorg0nops]

It has. And it's even more brutal. I love this guy, goddammit! And Testament in general.

[@creepygeorgie148]

I remember in the old days when you haved to buy a vhs to see a concert of this guy's........THIS IS GREAT

[@schade80]

I remeber the days when an vhs tape of them was not available. I borrowed a lot of rock and metal albums from the local library. The Ritual was the first album I heard. Then also borrowed Low and Live at the Fillmore. Ordered their first two albums from a super marker. No record stores back then and not to this day where I am from.

How lucky were those of us who grew up with early Metallica, Testament, Megadeth, Exodus, early Anthrax, Overkill, Slayer, etc. so many legends and pioneers. Although some decent newer bands today, nothing close to the 1983-1993 decade for thrash metal. My youth was spoiled musically!

[@stevenschoenauer4752]

Spoiled indeed!!!

[@malachibenfield4384]

You are very lucky. I’m glad your grateful for it. I’ve had to grow up in the era of this shitty rap music.

Back when Metal Edge magazine was popular and you could mail tapes to people that were in to metal music. Miss those days!!!

It's also great to see most of them still going strong & younger generations getting into it - proof that the best metal never dies \m/

[@beatmet2355]

Their best lineup for sure

[@briangeorgebowes]

@idoj654123 Grab a membership to Songsterr! Being able to slow everything down and bring the speed up gradually helped me hit this More than Meets the Eye perfectly.

[@mroc7113]

Don’t sleep on Eric Peterson. He might be the most underrated guitarist in Metal, a full-on , next-level Riff Lord

[@nickolson9235]

Agreed! I've always said that Testament is nothing short of a supergroup with this lineup.

[@sticksman7819]

Chuck sounds absolutely incredible live.never followed testament much but what a live band.

I saw them in 1988 and they sound every bit as good here as they did then.

[@SeamusMacMattain]

I agree, and I have been going to their shows since 1991, I've seen them more than any other band.. They are my absolute favorite though....

[@cruxvox]

I saw one where the sound was absolutely horrid, and they were visibly bothered by it. BUT, as a countermeasure, they tried to rile thr crowd up even more. True professionalism. (Unlike Yngwie who tossed his guitar and b*tched at the engineers in plain sight)

[@CreatureFeature666]

@@cruxvox yeah, I’m not a fan of Yngwie. I posted a question on Jason Becker’s channel about why Yngwie didn’t appear on the Triumphant Hearts album. The Becker family replied to me and said, “he was invited.” Yngwie has always been a jerk IMO.

[@marktourtillott1865]

My favorite of all the old school thrash bands. Chuck is the best thrash singer, and they have always been great live.

[@joesilva8484]

Man between Eric playing rhythm and Alex playing lead with their harmonizing nobody does it better in my opinion and I've been listening to them with Testament since 1988. Keep Rocking guys cause age is just a number 👍🤘🎤🎸.

This is an all-star Thrash Metal band big time. Every member is a Master at their instrument. I have seen this lineup twice so far , and they are insanely PHENOMENAL live. They are heavier and more aggressive now than they were thirty years ago. Most bands that get older slow it down, not Testament.

Muy bueno!!! Gracias por poner los minutos de cada tema en la descripción 💪💪💪👍👍👍

[@putridabomination]

They still sound just as good as they did back in the day.

[@lecorsaire2283]

Even better due to the better equipment. The modern metal amps that came out in the 90s and after have a much thicker heavier tone compared to the Marshalls they used to record the early albums. You can hear the difference with First Strike Still Deadly. Mesa Boogie Dual Rectifier is used for sure.
