...and cheers to ROCK CASTLE 2026 in August!

ROCK CASTLE 2026 – Castle Park, MORAVSKÝ KRUMLOV – 13. – 15. 8. 2026

Bay Area thrash metal legend TESTAMENT shines with their new studio album “Para Bellum”! The new album reflects modern chaos through music that is urgent, sharp and unwaveringly human. The band’s latest single “High Noon” with an animated video now tempts you to see where you can see TESTAMENT live! You don't have to look far, it will be in mid-August, in the pleasant surroundings of the castle park in the South Moravian town of MORAVSKÝ KRUMLOV, which has become the home of the international rock-metal festival ROCK CASTLE and in August 2026 it will be its 6th edition!

Chuck Billy says about the new album: "We are excited about the release of the Para Bellum album. We spent many hours preparing it. These new songs took me out of my comfort zone as a singer, but I am very proud of the final result. See you soon..."

"Para Bellum" also received a high point average of 4.96 in the latest Spark, which is the second best result of the year, right after HELLOWEEN. "TESTAMENT did not stray from their characteristic expression on the new album and continue to embellish the thrash metal genre, of which they are one of the main powerhouse," writes Karel Balčirák in the review.

So work hard, study, listen to music, go to concerts and you'll have a great time until August! And then, in MORAVSKÝ KRUMLOV, you'll really rock it out with TESTAMENT!
