Testament, Exodus, and Death Angel Announce New Tour Dates
Testament, Exodus, and Death Angel were on the road early last year as part of the “Bay Strikes Back” tour. It was, of course, cut short by the pandemic. (Several members of the bands and crew also contracted the virus.) However, the trio of thrash icons is ready to strike back again.
“Finally we are able to announce this suspended tour due to the COVID-19 pandemic!” Said Testament guitarist Eric Peterson. “We are totally excited to get out on the road again and continue where we left off supporting our newest release ‘Titans of Creation!’ Along with our brothers of thrash Exodus and Death Angel! Get your tickets now! Horns up!!!!!”
The tour will once again feature three killer bassists with Testament’s fretless wonder Steve Di Giorgio, Exodus’s Jack Gibson, and Death Angel’s Damien Sisson. Di Giorgio put together an amazing video series called “Bass Strikes Back” that goes behind the scenes for the players and their gear. Check out the first episode:
