During an interview with 97 Underground, Testament’s Chuck Billy offered an update on the band’s new album. According to him, the group “have to get it done and record it before [they] leave [for Europe] in July.”
Billy said the following:
“That’s the norm. We usually go to Europe every summer. So right now we’re on kind of a time restraint because we’re working on a new record. We’re writing it right now. And we have to get it done and record it before we leave in July.
That’s our goal. So right now we’re working hard on that. So there’s only a few shows before July, which is these two one-offs, the special shows we’re gonna do in Connecticut and West Virginia; one’s at the Foxwoods and one’s at Hollywood Casino. And those shows we’re gonna play [TESTAMENT’s first two albums] ‘The Legacy’ and ‘The New Order’ in their entirety, because in March we’re gonna re-release those on Nuclear Blast Records.
So, we really wanna take time off, get a break from writing a record — come out, celebrate these early records with us — and then get right back in the studio and finish recording. So, we’re looking forward to it. Going out and playing live is what we do. We love it. So to take a break and go do some fun stuff like this, we’re looking forward to it.”
