Hammerheart Records is reissuing Pestilence‘s third album, Testimony of the Ancients, on LP in multiple colors.
Hammerheart is currently accepting preorders. People who care about the sound quality should stick to black vinyl and of course the CD version for pristine digital sound if they do not already own the album and have some compelling need to own physical copies of everything Pestilence ever did back in the early 90s.

So, do we like this album or not? (I’m starting to think I’m a poseur who needs to be told what to like and what to hate.)
It is hit or miss but the composition just isn’t there. Still way better than later Death.
Testimony oddly manages to be a solid album. Yeah, not as good as the first 2, but still passable and better than any Death album after Spiritual Healing or Cynic’s Focus. Of course, it would be the last decent Pestilence album before they declined into a gay fruity jazz fushion act.
Lame album title is foreboding..
Nice cover artwork
