Testament: Original Line Up To Kick Off World Tour

Testament

Continuing the return of Testament, the original line-up will perform shows

world-wide within 2007. Influencing a whole metal movement today, Testament

remain the originators of thrash.

Drummer Nick Barker (ex-Dimmu Borgir/Cradle of Filth) will join all original

members Alex Skolnick (guitar), Greg Christian (bass), Eric Peterson

(guitar) and Chuck Billy (vocals) for this historical year.

Band guitarist Eric Peterson exclaims, "Hey Metal world! Working hard with

Nick on some new ideas and some cool old school styles and it's coming

together really killer! Six songs already in the can so far! Just waiting

for the Chief to come up with some lyrics to match, we get into the studio

to track the drums in June...looking forward to busting out some new ones

for this summer at the festivals and get a reaction!"

Chuck Billy states "It's been a long time coming, this new album is like a

good wine, you throw in the grapes and "CRUSH"."

Testament is currently working on new material for an upcoming CD release!

Stay tuned for more information.
