Commented guitarist Mårten Hagström: "So it's the last date of the ongoing European tour and we find ourselves in Cologne. This tour has been awesome and we'd like to thank everyone for coming to the shows making this tour an unbelievable experience. So naturally, we're stoked to announce that we are coming back in April/May to continue the trek in the eastern parts of Europe along with the previously announced Scandinavian dates".

But here's good news from the band for their Dutch, German and Swedish fans: "The European" tour as a whole is cancelled, but we've worked diligently to try and make some of the gigs actually happen.

Bay Area thrash veterans, TESTAMENT, have announced to tour Europe in support of their most recent release, "Dark Roots Of Earth" in November.

 

Commented guitarist Alex Skolnick: "Our last run in Europe was a blast, with people responding to the new songs as though they're classics. It will be great to return and play a few places we haven't been in a while, such as Austria, Poland and the UK".
