A ten minute video interview with TESTAMENT frontman Chuck Billy, conducted last Saturday at the Sayreville, New Jersey stop of the Sounds Of The Underground tour can be seen at this location.
Testament recently inked a deal with Nuclear Blast to distribute their new album (due out in March, 2008) featuring the killer lineup of original members Eric Peterson, Chuck Billy, Alex Skolnick, Greg Christian and the addition of monster drummer Nick Barker (DIMMU BORGIR, CRADLE OF FILTH).
"We are very happy that we are signed to one of the best metal labels in the world. It's a great feeling that we are in a house that will not crumble," says band vocalist Chuck Billy.
"This is going to be our best record to date, and it will be the essence of what Testament is. Nuclear Blast is the perfect label for us. They eat, breathe and sleep, metal. I am excited also because a lot of my favorite bands are on Nuclear Blast, giving us the opportunity to be label-mates with them. Finally we are coming home!" stated Eric Peterson
