Thrash metal veteans Testament have been busily beavering away on their new studio album - their first since 2020's critically acclaimed Titans Of Creation - and in a new interview frontman Chuck Billy has revealed that the band will be expanding their sonic palette on multiple fronts. In fact, not only have Testament written what sounds like a rare type of song compared to their usual style, but they've brought in none other than Nightwish frontwoman Floor Jansen for a special guest appearance.
"On this record, I don't wanna say the word 'ballad', but we wrote a slower song like we had back in the 80s and 90s that we wrote on this record,"Billy tells AMFM (as transcribed by Blabbermouth). And it's really awesome, really good. We're gonna bring in a guest vocalist, Floor Jansen from Nightwish. She's gonna sing on it with me. And we're gonna put in some string section into the song."
