Testament will release their new album, Brotherhood Of The Snake, on October 28th via Nuclear Blast. On the pain of making the new album, Chuck Billy tells eonmusic, “I never want to go through this process ever again. I really expressed myself to Eric (Peterson) after recording the record, like; “dude, I did not have fun on this. It was not fun; you did not make it fun for me, and I do not want to do this again Eric like this – please”. It was a big struggle.”
