Formed in the early '80s, Testament has been a pioneer in the thrash scene for almost 40 years. And in early 2020, Testament joined with fellow Bay Area metal legends Exodus and Death Angel for a European tour, billed The Bay Strikes Back. Unfortunately, the new order imposed by pandemic restrictions saw an end to any potential US leg of the tour.
But with restrictions now easing, The Bay Strikes Back quite literally, resuming with over 30 tour dates for 2021. The concerts are scheduled from October into November at mid-size venues across the USA. All three bands are from northern California, which should make the five home state shows extra special.
