OVERKILL frontman Bobby "Blitz" Ellsworth and TESTAMENT vocalist Chuck Billy were featured guests on Sirius XM's Liquid Metal, hosted by Jose Mangin on February 14th. Check out video footage below:
As previously reported, Testament filmed/recorded for a 90-minute live DVD/CD on February 15th at the Paramount Theatre in Huntington, New York.
“We haven’t shot a live DVD or CD since our Live In London release and we’ve had two killer albums since then,” commented Testament's towering and 100% correct vocalist Chuck Billy prior to the date. “We thought it would be cool to put out a live DVD/CD focusing on the last three records (The Gathering, The Formation Of Damnation and Dark Roots Of Earth) mixed in with a good amount of classics too. Last time we recorded anything live in America was for Live at the Fillmore on the West Coast. This time we thought we’d give the East Coast a chance to show the world how crazy and loud they can be. We’re going to be playing an extra-long 17 - 18 song set, which will be our lengthiest set of the tour. Let’s see all you thrashers stirring it up out there and singing along! See ya!”This special DVD/CD release is expected later this year via Nuclear Blast Records.
