just as their metallica worship quickly got stale their new style already incorporates way too much lazy pantera

Holy fuck, this album is awesome. I not only love the Death Metal influences and the lower guitar tunings, this album also has awesome riffs and killer drumming. Easily my favorite Testament album.

Testament bounces back and releases their best album since The New Order. By the way, this sounds pretty much nothing like that oft-atmospheric and melodic record. Rather, The Gathering is an all-out brutal assault, with plenty of death metal influences mixed with badass riffage and obvious thrashy moments. DNR and Fall of Sipledome are unmistakably brutal thrash, while Legions of the Dead is more death metal inspired. The Gathering was Testament's most consistent album in a long time, and the second in a row to feature a legendary metal drummer behind the kit; Demonic had Gene Hoglan, while this album has Dave Lombardo. I'm sure this would have led to an awesome comeback if it weren't for Chuck Billy falling ill with cancer soon after.

Far better than the previous Death Metal adventure. The Gathering has really good moments like D.N.R. (Do Not Resuscitate). The beginning is metal as f*****. Excellent record.

Supergroup lineup that shows each part putting on its best performance, and combines dark, blistering thrash metal with a fair of death metal (vocals) and black metal (tempos, songwriting). The result is just unbelievable. Oh, did I mention Dave Lombardo is the drummer?
Recommended Tracks: D.N.R., Down For Life, True Believer, Legions of the Dead, Fall of Sipledome
