JAKARTA - In a new interview with Loud TV conducted at Hellfest last weekend in Classon, France, Testament guitarist Eric Peterson spoke about the progress of the songwriting session for the new album, continued the Titan's Of Creation (2020).
"There is a big gap due to Covid. But now we're getting ready - maybe after the [Europe] tour this is starting to work on new material. So, yes, I'm looking forward to that," Eric said.
"We already have about five, six songs already written, and [I] might try to finish them when I get home. And hopefully record them right after we toured Japan."
Eric went on to say that Testament's new material was being formed to become deadly material.
"I'm a fan. For me, I won't release anything unless I'm a fan of what I'm doing. I have to get goosebumps. When I hear it, I'm, like, 'Yes'. Then, of course, I play it for friends."
"Some of them said, 'Ehh.' But most of them said, 'bad luck!' Except Chuck [Billy, vocalist] Chuck reads, 'Eh.' And then four years later, [he said], 'That's the best song ever. Write more nonsense like that.' I, like, 'Yes, but four years ago you said it was bad.'"

"Hopefully October, November. If not, maybe January, February. But we're shooting for this year at the end of the year. I think I'll finish writing in September. So we just have to wait for the vocals. It could take quite a while. But we'll see what happens."
