In case you weren’t aware, Dublin Death Patrol (DDP) is composed of members from Testament, Exodus, Laaz Rockit and others. There’s not too much to report on right now but, after listening to … Read entire article »

Epic Tales: Megadeth, Testament and Exodus in Hollywood (video, pics)
As much as I love hitting the open road on a beautiful California spring Wednesday morning on a trip to Hollywood, I equally hate the drive back the next day, or at night when I’m haggard and barely functioning from the night before. There are many forces at work against one, that is, should one decide to make a road trip – the main obstacle of course, being money. Nevertheless, Megadeth, Testament and Exodus skipping … Read entire article »

Another European Metal Fest That Should Be in the U.S.
Wow, Bolt Thrower are way more popular than I thought they were. I mean, that song The Killchain is pretty awesome, but those guys with Testament and Behemoth seems kind of odd. 59 Euros for tickets and camping. What is that – like three thousand dollars or something? I’m just assuming… … Read entire article »

Alex Skolnick Skipping Out on This Testament Tour
There was a good article posted on noisecreep yesterday featuring Alex Skolnick (with video) where they discuss why Glenn Drover is playing guitar on this upcoming Megatestodus tour. Long story short, he already made commitments with his other band, The Alex Skolnick Project. Skolnick will be back in the line-up for the American Carnage, a.k.a. Megaslaytest, tour this summer/fall. Choosing Drover to fill-in was kind of an interesting choice. It would’ve been cool to see Steve … Read entire article »

Megatestodus skipping the Bay!?!
I’m sure you’ve heard of the “Rust in Peace” tour by now – but just in case you haven’t – it’s Megadeth, Testament and Exodus. Awesome, right!? Wrong. The only show in California is in Los Angeles. It seems like there’s a new story every day, in some form or another, about how awesome these concerts are going to be. Which is why it’s so frustrating when shows are cancelled, postponed, or not anywhere near … Read entire article »

For those of us that never got to experience one of the greatest metal tours in the history of the world, imagine Megadeth, Slayer, Anthrax, Testament, Suicidal Tendencies, Death Angel and Alice in Chains all in one tour.

Slayer is Out of Mega/Slay/Test. Metal is Showing its Age.
Tom Araya of Slayer has to get some back surgery done this month, consequently ending post-poning the American Carnage tour run. It just donned on me that metal is really starting to show its age. It’s only a matter of time before we start hearing about hip-replacement surgeries and the crazy “oat bran lifestyle” of aging metal musicians. A lot of dudes are in their 50’s and 60’s already. That’s right – 50’s and 60’s! … Read entire article »

Testament to Play the Entire “Legacy” Album for American Carnage Tour
Testament had a pretty awesome set list on their last tour – it was just about perfect if you ask me. Due to time constraints, for the upcoming American Carnage tour, they decided that instead of a traditional set, they’re going to play the entire album The Legacy. From KNAC.com: We decide last night that instead of putting—because we only have a 40-minute set to pick–instead of playing a medley of songs, we decided we’re going … Read entire article »
