Bay Area thrash legends Testament return this fall with their fourteenth studio album, Para Bellum, arriving October 10, 2025 via Nuclear Blast Records. Recorded with Juan Urteaga and mixed/mastered by Jens Bogren and Tony Lindgren at Fascination Street Studios, the record pushes the band into urgent new territory—melding speed, melody, and modern chaos into one of their fiercest releases to date. Artwork once again comes from Eliran Kantor, whose hand-painted piece captures the record’s apocalyptic spirit.
The first single, Infanticide A.I., introduces fans to the album’s sheer velocity, led by drummer Chris Dovas. Watch the video directed by Joey Durango here:
