Testament has been touring non-stop in support of "The Formation Of Damnation", including this year's Priest Feast tour in Europe with Judas Priest and a phenomenal run on the Metal Masters tour last summer with Heaven & Hell and Motörhead.
Two classic albums by Testament - 1997's "Demonic" and 1999's "The Gathering" - were reissued on gatefold double vinyl by Prosthetic Records on February 3. Each features etched artwork on Side D and is limited to 1,000 copies worldwide. Additionally, 100 copies of "Demonic" feature red vinyl, while 100 copies of "The Gathering" feature gold vinyl.
