“Making the legacy known”
Evil feelings in the air? Then it’s time for some thrash. Taken from the first (and my favourite) Testament album The Legacy, Burnt Offerings is timeless, definitive moshing right down to its half-note riffs, shifting pace and Chuck Billy’s ballsy vocals. I love the black magic vibe of a lot of these early Testament tracks and Burnt Offerings has got that in spades. It’s like a moshed-up Mercyful Fate song with its seances, tarot cards, spooky intro and creepy-crawly verses. It’s an infernal thrash classic that… won’t die!

Cool song from a super album! Should they expand the Big 4 to the Big 5, Testament would be the leading candidate.

They’d definitely be in the running. I think I’d vote for Kreator though

That would be a good choice as well. So would Exodus.

Year ago my brother was living in Vancouver and he went and caught Skolnick and his jazz trio play a small bar. My Bro said it was stellar and he used to buy Testaments stuff…

I like this, great tune. Slightly clunky of-its-time production though, a touch too treble-y in my view. Needs some more arse.

Yeah it’s very thin. But I kinda like that too. Too many bands just sound the same now.

Ahhh early Testament. So good and so raw. Peterson and Skolnick. What a team.
