This week Hard Attack welcomes the almighty thrash legends Testament for a very special extended version of Hard Files. Join host Jose Mangin and original Testament members Chuck Billy, Eric Peterson, Alex Skolnick, and Greg Christian for an audio gathering to discuss the band’s past, present and future.

The interview will begin airing Thursday at 7PM EST, and will be rebroadcast Friday (12 PM EST), Saturday (3 PM EST), and Sunday (6 PM EST).

Hear the metal gods discuss everything from their current metallic tastes, to fashion, to their forthcoming new album set to come out next year, to medicine men that helped Chuck kick cancer. It’s a true testament to the band that helped shape metal today and continues to take the music to new levels.

Testament is also thrilled to have signed a worldwide record deal with Nuclear Blast Records at this year’s Earthshaker Festival in Germany. The label will be releasing Testament’s brand-new forthcoming album, slated for a 2008 release. To celebrate, the band has booked a series of European festival dates, beginning with Bloodstock on August 16 in Derbyshire, England.
