Testament Announces Latin America Dates, South America, Mexico

Testament confirmed their Latin America tour dates beginning in mid-August and running into September 2017. The band is currently on a worldwide tour following the release of their album Brotherhood of the Snake. A list of dates can be found below.

In an interview with AXS, vocalist Chuck Billy talked about Brotherhood of the Snake and why he thinks it’s some of the best material the band has ever recorded. “It’s a record that took a lot out of us over the last couple of years,” Billy explained. “We’ve had a few tours that kind of slowed things up, but for the most part, we’ve been working on it so long it started getting kind of frustrating and some emotions started coming out just because the process was taking so long and we didn’t know if we were going to have a record this year. It kind of just put the pressure on us to get it out. We jumped into the studio before we had demos done and we just went for it. I think because of that it pushed us out of our comfort zone and made us work a little harder, dig down deep, and come up with up some of the best stuff we’ve probably recorded ever. We didn’t have too much time to double-guess it and polish it up. I think maybe we had to go through this to get the record how it came out, because we’re very proud of the final outcome.”
