this shit goes so fucking hard. people who says they are a Metallica copycat are braindead.
>>128484225Based Testament poster. They are not a Metallica copy cat, never were. They are actually 10X better than modern Metallica these days. Para Bellum fucking crushes.
>>128484362in the end they ended up having the most consistent discography in thrash metal, who would have guessed that?I remember very well when 'Dark Roots of Earth' released and everybody was praising the shit out of it, meanwhile the year before Metallica did 'Lulu' and the year after Megadeth did 'Super Collider'...
>>128484225Is Testament actually good? I kind of ignored them when I was initially getting into metal.
>>128485918Practice What You Preach is probably their best effort. They had Skolnick, who was probably the best shredder in thrash in the 80s.
>>128485918>ignored themthis happens a lot.
>>128484450The only bad album Megadeth album is Super Collider - that's 15/16. Risk is a good rock album that fans couldn't wrap their heads around, even though their sound was clearly (and steadily) headed for that direction since Countdown.Metallica only released one bad album, and that's the (still) moderately enjoyable St. Anger. The other one is a colab that shouldn't count anyway. Souls of Black, Low, and Demonic are so dry and boring that you almost wish to be blindsided by Crush 'Em, or Lou Reed.
>>128489118Souls of Black fucking rips, dude. What are you even talking about?
>>128487191Legacy is still #1. They have yet to top that album, but have come really close.
>>128489446Rips ass, more like.
>>128489480Ok, faggot.
>>128489118Low's actually a really good album it's just that no one ever listened to it. >>128489448>Legacy is still #1That's not how you spell The Ritual.
>>128489548Only a faggot would enjoy whiffle thrash as much as you do.
>>128484225I find that The Legacy has way better production.
>>128484225>Metallica copycat are braindeadFor their 80s they were, fucking boring riffs, with amazing solos. During the 90s onward they became more interesting
