Desmond's Daily Offering - "Three Days of Darkness" by Testament

The GatheringI don't care what anyone says....Testament is hands down the best Thrash Metal Band on the Planet. Yes, Metallica rules and wrote some of the best Metal ever recorded but Testament totally slays in the Thrash arena and indeed they do continus to get stronger with time. In my opinion, "The Gathering" is one of their finest albums and "Three Days of Darkness" is a classic example of the tasty Metal that they continue to conjure up with each release. If "the power of the riff compels you," it is a must that you get down with this band. New Wave of American Heavy Metal lovers of Lamb of God, Shadows Fall, Killswitch Engage, etc.....bow down and pay homage to the original masters of the Almighty Thrash. Sweet riffage, amazing double bass madness, technical proficiency out the wazoo and the best Cookie Monster vocals ever to go down on record. Please enjoy \m/\m/\m/
