This CD is available for trade.
Nice find for the price, but I already picked this promotional CD-single in a bargain bin years ago, so I wasn't terribly excited about it as a duplicate. Edit and album versions of "Electric Crown," plus the short little "Signs of Chaos" (which was the intro to The Ritual album).
Except for The Legacy, I think I've hardly listened to any Testament studio album all the way through after the initial exploratory spin (yep, that includes The New Order--I usually just end up playing "Disciples of the Watch" over and over). In my head I rate The Ritual a little bit above Practice... and Souls...just because I like the song "Agony," while from the latter two nothing really stood out all that much. The Ritual is often referred to as being Testament's version of the black album, and between this single and my somewhat vague recollections of the album as a whole (slower tempos, much less thrashy sound), that definitely seems to be the case.
