    So all you testament fans... which album is the best to get into this band??

    I heard the guitarists and the bassists kick ass. Any recommendations??

    The Ritual from me too....Scolnick :nw: :nw:

    chk our Low, Live at Filmore nd The Gathering too....they feature James Murphy :nw: since he has worked with bands like Death and Obituary these albums might appeal to you.

    thats true...but Murphy is also pretty good...esp on Low...Trail of Tears...badass solo...

    Alex Skolnick and James Murphy will always be my favorite guitarists of all time.

    Shs, the band's sound seemed to always change with each album. I reccomend you check out the albums:

    -Live At the Fillmore (Murphy has a go at the more classic Testament material and of course, just kicked ass!)
    -The New Order (a thrash metal classic! Also from the Skolnick era)
    -The Gathering (Not much solos, but the riffing is just amazing)
    -First Strike Still Deadly (beefed up versions of classic songs)
    -Low

    My favourite is "The New Order". Though my favourite testament song happens to be 'Return to serenity'. And Skolnick is amazing.
