Hell yeah this one kept me going on several occasions. Testament's The gathering was a statement when the band released this cd. Being one of the first big american trash metal bands back in the 80's Testament never became as popular as Megadeth, Anthrax, Slayer of Metallica. Still this cd rocked more than any of the later releases of formentioned bands. Great trash riffs, a brutal still variated voice and great drumparts mek this one a classic in the history of trash metal. Songs like '3 days of darkness", "legions of the dead", "D.N.R" are high quality solid metal from exceptional level. Everything just sounds great, production, guitarparts, drums, it s all killer baby! People iinto metal, especially into 80's trahs metal should check this one out.
