Heavy Metal Superfan BlogDISPLAYING POSTS WITH KEYWORD TAG: TESTAMENT. The previously scheduled Canadian dates were canceled for medical reasons, but now it's official: there will be a North American tour featuring Slayer, Megadeth and Testament in 2010, and every stop will feature a certain number of $10 tickets.

And while some of the best metal bands around have just one guitarist, a lot of the true greats have two axes up front, ripping through the speakers in tandem. So for this weekend's poll, you decide which band has the greatest dual-guitar team in all of metal. Voting closes at 10 AM Monday, so vote early and often!
