I've never understood why
The Legacy album didn't achieve the same attentions critically as early
Metallica and
Megadeth releases did. It's certainly got the power and the technical proficiency to keep it in the best of 80s Thrash lists. The sound is a mix of early
Metallica and
Exodus, what's now the classic Bay Area Thrash sound. The production could be better but the enthusiasm and the urgency with which its delivered is faultless.
Testament matured and changed on subsequent albums, but they never bettered it for pure in-your-face entertainment.
