Testament (2) – Brotherhood Of The Snake

Testament is one of the most consistent player in its field.
Survived the test of time. Brilliantly.

Thank you guys !

This is exactly what I want from a modern Testament record, fast, aggressive, and razor sharp. The songwriting on Brotherhood of the Snake is absolutely relentless, and I mean that in the best possible way. The tempo barely lets up across the entire album, and I love it. It’s tight and executed with surgical precision.

Chuck Billy’s vocals are just phenomenal on this release. There’s so much richness and depth to his voice, blending clarity and growl in that unique way only he can pull off. His performance here stands out even among Testament’s already stellar discography.

As for the pressing itself 10/10. After running the record through my usual Spin Clean process, playback was flawless. It’s dead quiet, no pops or background noise, and the dynamics are incredible. The stereo separation is crystal clear, making every instrument feel perfectly placed in the mix. The overall soundstage is immersive and powerful.

Highly recommended pressing—this one does the music full justice.

is this really limited? how many copies are out there?

Incredible sound but it has big surface noise. You can hear the picture on the discs :]

Good packaging and great sounding disc, but I have no clue why Nuclear Blast's QC is not doing their job. I own the 5x7" box set and the labels are out of order but the tracks were correct after organizing. I thought the only issue would be the back being a misprint,
turns out the release was pressed with the tracks in the incorrect order. The CD has the correct track listing and plays through sequentially. The vinyl releases are completely out of wack and the tracks do not flow well together in this order at all, c'est dommage.

Excellent packaging, only gripe I have is that ever single track listing on my copy is out of order, I have no clue who organized this release but it is absolutely a mess. Same thing with the 12" releases, tracks on the back are mis-matched

Please disregard my first post, thanks. Mods: both my posts can be deleted if necessary.

Hi, does anyone know where I get buy this "2CD Mexican Version Hardcover Digibook"? Thanks!

My copy is with a black vinyl, but on the box is mentioned picture disc. It was buy as a new and sealed. Other stuff is included (poster, mediabook with cd and gatefold cover)

Really confusing version. The shrink has a 45rpm sticker, yet labels on both records say 33rpm. I can confirm that this runs at 45rpm. I really wish they wouldn't have misprinted the labels.
