Testament announce “Titans of Creation” video album, release new music video

Thrash metal giants Testament released their greatly acclaimed thirteenth studio album, “Titans of Creation”, via Nuclear Blast in 2020. 

Testament has now announced they will release a “Titans of Creation” Video Album on September 9th via Nuclear Blast Records. The limited-edition collectible features performance videos of all the tracks on the record. The footage was compiled at a soundstage in San Francisco and was edited into music video-style clips that will be available on Blu-Ray accompanying the CD with bonus photos and liner notes, plus a button and sticker in a longbox. Staying true to the record, the performances feature Gene Hoglan behind the kit, and will be limited to 6,500 units worldwide. 

The band has also released the music video for the track “Curse Of Osiris“. You can watch the video below:

Chuck Billy comments:

“I’m very excited and proud to release the video play through for the “Titans of Creation” album. We were fortunate enough to have Gene Hoglan on drums before his departure. Now fans can watch us play the entire album in their homes with friends and start their own mosh pit in their living rooms.”

Eric Peterson adds:

“We are pleased to announce something we have always wanted to do! A performance video for each song on our latest release “Titans of Creation”. It almost didn’t happen as we got the news from Gene that he was going to go his separate way, but we left on a good note and we agreed that we should nail this last idea. I think it came out really killer & can’t wait for everybody to see it! We kept it simple, and added a couple of visual elements on some songs for a certain vibe of the song, overall great to listen to and watch us jam these new killer songs! Looking forward to doing it again on the next record too!”

“Titans of Creation” was produced by Chuck Billy and Eric Peterson while Juan Urteaga of Trident Studios handled co-producing, recording and engineering. Andy Sneap was responsible for the mixing and mastering of the album. Eliran Kantor stepped up once again to create a new masterpiece of artwork for the cover of this release. 

Testament has taken their style to the next level and presents an album that is loyal to the roots of traditional thrash metal while still including the alluring, brilliant, and progressive ingredients they are known for.
