Sweet cover art. Just listening to Formation now. So far so good. This will probably be awesome as well.

Here is how I would rank Testament's illustrated artwork:
1. Souls of Black
2. Dark Roots of Earth
3. The New Order
4. The Formation of Damnation
5. The Ritual
6. Return to the Apocalyptic City
7. Practice What You Preach

Formation isn't a patch on The Ritual or Souls of Black, so I rarely, if ever, listen to it.

In Bizarro World, that song would suck more than anything has ever sucked before.

I liked the extended solo. Reminded me of the older stuff. Otherwise it was just ok I guess.

It's pretty good but again, Skolnick's solos are the highlight. That might be a theme with the album.

Bay Area thrash metal legends TESTAMENT, hit #9 on the world sales chart with a total of approximately 58,500 copies sold world-wide of their new album Dark Roots of Earth in its first week of sales.
