This fall, the Klash Of The Titans makes its triumphant return to North America. Fans will enjoy an epic night of metal with thrash royalty Testament and Kreator co-headlining the run. The 33-date trek will kick off on September 12th in Reno making its way across the U.S. and will include seven Canadian dates before concluding in San Francisco on October 27th. Joining the night are special guests Bay Area death metal pioneers and labelmates Possessed.
Testament states “Get ready North America. We are looking forward to a co-headline tour with our thrash master friends Kreator. This is gonna be a madhouse of a show with our Bay Area homies Possessed opening the show so get there early. Testament will be performing an old-school set celebrating the re-release of The Legacy and The New Order.
Kreator‘s Mille Petrozza comments, “We’re very proud to bring a second edition of the Klash Of The Titans to North America. This time with the Bay area beasts Testament and one of my favorite bands in the world, Possessed.

@Rattlehead: I loved Revelations of Oblivion! It was probably the album I didn’t have much hope for, but blew me away. And yes, Jeff’s story is sad, but seems like he’s made the best of it and sounds like he’s on the right path. I follow them on FB and he’s always interacting with the fans. Seems like a genuinely nice guy. Real bummer you missed out on the original lineup though. Tons of bands I never got to see either back then, would have loved to see them above just about anyone else. Been a favorite of mine since I first hear Seven Churches.
Wrecked Neck, I first became aware of Possessed from the Metal Massacre VI compilation, with their song “Swing of the Axe”, a killer neck breaker song! Seven Churches is a great full length album, as you already know. I don’t think Possessed got much respect early on cuz they were kinda young and their satanic image was kinda over the top….like Venom.
If you haven’t seen it yet, there is a picture book called “Murder in the Front Row” that’s got great pictures of Possessed in it, as well as a lot of other pics of 80’s trash metal bands before they were “famous”.
I’ve seen the book available on Amazon and keep meaning to buy it, but haven’t gotten around to it yet. Need to change that soon, cause I’d love to have it.
