Metalheads Australia wide will be banging their heads with glee to hear that yes, the rumours are true, the mighty Testament will return to our shores this August.
Testament have reigned as one of the world’s premier thrash bands for 25 years, since the birth of Bay Area thrash, always staying true to their roots, yet winning over new fans with each of their nine chart busting studio albums.
However to truly experience the skull crushing phenomenon that is Testament, you have to experience their live show – as their five live albums and legion of fans worldwide can testify.
August 2010 will be Australia’s turn to witness the blistering live spectacle of ‘The Damnation Tour’ featuring Testament with special guests Dreadnaught; so prepare to have your eardrums shattered.
Don’t miss your chance to be decimated by thrash metal monsters, Testament.

Show Cancelled
Due to circumstances beyond our control our show in Dandenong on January 30th has been cancelled. This is due to the promoter pulling out because of the recent changes to liquor licensing laws in Victoria that have seen the license fees for live venue increase exorbitantly.
Many of you would also be aware that the same law changes have indirectly resulted in the closure of another of Melbourne's iconic band venues, The Tote.
These new liquor licensing laws are designed to combat the rise in violence episodes at inner-city nightclubs and beer-barns and not designed well enough, or with enough flexibility to allow for historically non-violent venues like The Tote to be exempt from a "high-risk" tag. The Victorian government, in particular Lynne Kosky (resigned 18/1/10 - former Minister for the Arts) and Tony Robinson are going to kill live music in Victoria if they keep this up.
This band has always maintained a strictly non-political public profile, but enough is enough already. Remember live music the next time someone asks you to vote for them!!!!
