Testament Cover “Seek & Destroy” As Part Of “No Life ‘ Til Leather – A Tribute To Metallica’s Kill ‘Em All”


Silver Lining Music to release No Life ‘Til Leather – A Tribute to Metallica’s Kill ‘Em All on November 14th. The third single from the all-star compilation is from thrash metal icons Testament, the full-throttle cover of Metallica’s anthem ‘Seek & Destroy’.

You can divide the history of heavy metal into two distinct chapters: ‘before Metallica’ and ‘after Metallica’. When the Four Horsemen galloped to the top of dozens of countries’ charts with their self-titled album in 1991, they became the new measuring stick for their genre, and their standard is one that no hard rockers since have matched, let alone outdone. Yet – for all the sellout tours, broken records and reinventive efforts over the last 45 years – they started the same way almost every other noisy band do: ferocious kids driven to shove metal up your ass.

Emerging from the electric underbelly of Chicago’s rock scene, NOW ITS DARK have returned to lure listeners into their sonic labyrinth with their mesmerizing new single, “Nymph.” The track is a darkly seductive anthem that blends haunting melodies, cinematic atmosphere, and raw emotional power — the kind of song that doesn’t just play in your head, it takes up permanent residence.
