Now this is a badass tune!!!! So much musicianship in a heavy context. Respect!

I forgot all about that song. I always loved that tune.

Favorite album by them.

Yeah, that's a great album start to finish - it was supposed to have been recorded fully live in the studio. Or at least that's what they said at the time...

The Legacy and Trail of Tears are two other great ballad'ish songs. Thanks for posting, haven't listened to this in quite awhile!

 

[HerbieBoogie]

Man, I was huge Testament fan back in the day. Skolnick was a monster on their first 5 albums. I thought James Murphy was awesome on the Low album as well. His solo on Trail of Tears is very tasty.

Testament is amazing. At 4:06 mark on the "The Ballad" where Chuck screams "too many times!" I always felt like suddenly Hetfield was singing instead
