TESTAMENT "Demonic"

(Music For Nations)

RATING: **

I don't like this album. I don't like it because it's very sad to hear a band with such a glorious name producing a common, useless and Pantera oriented record! Yes, Testament are now playing DEATH METAL! I sincerely don't understand the reason for this change, also because the band, even though its line up has deeply changed from the beginning, still gives great importance to the older stuff in the live shows. Apart from this, "Demonic" can give you anger, power, pounding guitars, brutal voice and massive heavy rhythms. That could be good for a new emerging band, but Testament are really ridiculous to play this kind of music. Well, I don't want to write about it any longer, just know that this was, for me, the biggest disappointment I had this year!
