Singer/Bassist Tom Araya was born in Chile and moved to U.S. at age 5. The nicest guy you will ever meet.

[@6evil6dead64]

I met him at the Dallas airport. Could have been a complete dick. And it would have been warranted. He was there with his family. He took a pic with me that I immediately sent to everyone in my phone and will treasure till the day I die.

[@randyjennings6412]

And Dave Lombardo is Cuban

[@tomspring213]

Definitely a kick ass dude.

[@bayareathrasher666]

I have met Tom and Dave many times,,, both great people

[@kasperpetersen9204]

As if you actually know him.

[@robertocaba5915]

They owe so much to Lombardo’s drumming. He brings the band to the next level…..

[@ma1nick]

Dave Lombardo is one of the 2 greatest metal drummers ever. Love Slayer for the message their music always has.

[@MaraxisArcanist]

Dude pioneered the double bass in metal.

[@BongEyedBastard]

Don't dare say Lars.

A masterpiece of metal.

[@johndevoist8129]

Yes, more SLAYER! Raining Blood Angel of Death South of Heaven Seasons in the Abyss Mandatory Suicide (Live version)

[@BigHomieSteveTheMetalHead]

Slayer is by far the heaviest and most brutal band out of The Big 4, another good one for you to analyze is "Bitter Peace" or "Skeletons Of Society". Love Slayer, FKN SLAAAAYYEEEEERR!!!! (Sorry, I had to do it lol, it's a meme amongst Slayer fans). Great reaction brotha! 🤘🤘🤙🤙

[@Transgressorassessor]

SLAAAAYYEEEEERR!!!! 🤘

[@predeterminedmeat5024]

I don't think heaviest, but thrashiest? *HELL YES*

[@meeeeeej8]

​@@predeterminedmeat5024of the big 4 yes

This Song...was Just...My CHILDHOOD ANTHEM...and the GENUINE SMILE UPON HEARING THE OPEN RIFFS😊

[@Krrrimmi]

War Ensemble was back in d GULF WAR. That's what it's all about. 🤘

[@scramblesish]

It’s impossible to be more metal than Slayer And yeah the catharsis of this stuff is why we love it

[@rikurodriguesneto6043]

If you wanna hear another super heavy metal thing.. check out Sepultura live in Barcelona 🤘

[@alancarter41]

Great reaction. I am also a lyric guy since I have the musical ability of a dead carp, so I appreciate reactors who look at the lyrics instead just bobble head and say "wow, blew me away, best song ever" to get likes. Slayer is not an everyday listen for me but is great for those days when the world hates you and you hate back. Lots of truth in this song, especially considering war is really a natural and expected outcome of the fact Humans are an aggressive, predatory species. Which is a good thing considering otherwise Humans would have probably never survived to become dominate. Like your stuff, keep rocking.

[@PROGROCK-tr9hw]

Check out skeletons of society,seasons in the abyss,reign in blood, Angel of death and postmortem.

[@chrismurphy1960]

I saw them live back when I was 15 years old and I have been listening to them ever since

[@theglanconer6463]

One of the few ballads of Slayer. Wicked. First time I saw them I've must have been 15-ish (a few months after Motorhead) Happy times.

[@figu6ka379]

Ah yes, ballad

[@brainsushi7667]

666% more Slayer, please!

[@christophermiller670]

EVERY Slayer song has a deeper meaning.

[@erolbulut2584]

The meanings are secondary.

[@nikjohnson9944]

You need MORE SLAYER IN Your LIFE..

[@nikjohnson9944]

We ALL DO...!!!!

[@LibertySpam]

Nobody has ever been harder than Slayer, they're like getting smashed in the face by a mountain.

[@drock55551]

Slayer were so ahead of their time!!!

[@Lord_Narcowookie]

I saw them a few days earlier on that tour on the 11th at Birmingham NEC. Amazing gig where Suicidal Tendencies stole the show IMO, I dislocated my thumb during 'Send Me Your Money' and they became one of my favourite bands that day.

[@nlastamp]

I believe I read somewhere that this song was inspired by the "total war" speech by Joseph Goebbels.

[@suesue4081]

aw man youre taking me back ❤

[@shutupdummy4656]

More talent in the first 30 sec then all of hip hop in the last 15 years... combined

[@El-Torete-007]

The drumming was unbelievable, his speed was insane.

[@carlosbernalism]

You mentioned you're in Utah, so am I now, Dave the drummer lived 2 blocks from me and Tom about 5 minutes away back in 80s, it is because of Dave that I became a drummer, he's a machine. That visceral reaction I saw in you is what sets them apart.

[@ArchieArpeggio]

This is the song (and video) that leaded me to listen Slayer over 30 years ago. Most people propably say or request Raining blood, Dead skin mask, South of heaven, Season in abyss, Angel of death and there is most reacted to those before. Be different and go with Serenity in murder, Dittohead, Disciple or/and Bloodline.

[@williamcozart8158]

Dude...listen to the whole Reign in Blood album. It's a perfect record, IMO.

[@Vorgaloth]

A groundbreaker but overrated album. Hell Awaits is better.

[@williamcozart8158]

@@Vorgaloth Why because it's rougher production? the songs on Reign are better. Hell Awaits is fucking tits too tho.

[@DonjiPicudo]

Dude, you now have over 30k of subscribers!! I remember when you had 500, congratulations! I'm subscribed to your Patreon since those times, I was the one who even recommended starting it for the NML reactions :)

[@davetodd168]

Lol. I want to see you play one note on that prop guitar behind you

[@Toastrodamus]

This song is about the concept of Total War, a concept invented during the US Civil War. Total War says you shouldn't just fight your enemy on the field of battle, you should also destroy their infrastructure, set their cities on fire, and collapse their economy - anything you can do to stop the enemy from waging war. It's not about winning battles, it's about crippling them so completely that they will never be the same again.

[@213amp]

SLAYER songs AT DAWN THEY SLEEP and METALSTORM FACE THE SLAYER

[@Tarik_Molotov]

Simple Agression, underrated and most melodic song of Slayer

[@samrotheray5805]

I see your getting steps in while listening to this. I picked up 300 square bales last nite listening to this album.

[@Aymungoos]

You should react to some stuff off their first album. They had a groovier sound on their first album and it was more like new wave of British heavy metal. I'd suggest the song antichrist

[@Slaughterhouse_Floor]

This song was my alarm clock when I was in high school. If I had to get up for school. The whole house is gettin their asses up!

[@adammayday6486]

In the Iraqi war. The most listened to heavy metal band listened to.

[@wickedgrin9837]

Saw them with Exodus at the Warner Theatre

Slayers mandatory suicide live still reigning HD. Probably slayers most underrated performance, theres almost no reactions to it and it has the most chaotic breakdown I've ever witnessed.

[@AgenteusaRR]

"oh my gosh bro, im so fake that even my dog doesnt believe it"

[@a.azazagoth5413]

Any and all musicians who can’t appreciate at least one element of different musical styles are outdated. Props for the open mind!

[@christinapeck966]

Music is life 🎶🤘🏽🎸😉

[@BigHomieSteveTheMetalHead]

Hey Sebs, long time no see! Are you familiar with the Progressive Groove Metal band called Byzantine? Could you please check out Byzantine's song "God Forsaken"? (It's about a relationship, not God btw). Byzantine is a big band but they never got their dues like Lamb Of God and Meshuggah did, I discovered Byzantine a month ago and I can say without a doubt that Byzantine is one of the BEST bands I've ever heard in my entire life!! No joke bro, Byzantine is THAT good! Good to see you again Sebs! 🤘🤘🤙🤙

[@davidp.777]

Testament- great band. Souls of black, practice what you preach, Return to Serenity best song

[@nikkiwilliams8508]

You’re face! 🤣 I LOVE watching first timers! When I was 12 my momma got me their Diablos cd and I jammed it all the time, lol and I have been a fan since. I’ve seen them 5 times and every time you would see people with their kids on their shoulders 😂 you should check out their Raining Blood live performance amazing!

[@hartnettc485]

Yes, this would be a good song to play for aliens in order to give them a snapshot of heavy metal. On a related topic, I love the nails that King King wears on his forearm.

[@ronwilliamson8446]

The gospels according to SLAYER KILLOLOGY 1,2 &3.

[@wookieewinterchill4707]

A slap in the face, thrash metal. That is what Thrash is supposed to be. Slayeeeeer!!!

[@brianqualls-e3w]

Great band r.i.p Jeff...but Gary Holt from Exodus filled in perfect...I love Slayer always will Kery Kings new band is just as great...long live the kings of thrash

[@terrymills810]

Should definitely check Suicide Tendecies awesome band. This songs I would highly recommend: You cant bring me down, Instutitionalized. send me your money, you cant bring me down, war inside my head. They are a major influence on so many bands to include Ice T's Body Count one of my all time favorite metal bands.

[@tommi_marsetio]

First time hearing slayer, well, where have you been all this time, dude... lol Just kidding, welcome to slayer's world. Enjoy the brutal pace. Check out angel of death for more brutal of them.

[@jasonsumrall2136]

Recommendation, "ANGEL OF DEATH"

Does he have to take a leak? What's up with the running in place/have to Pee dance? It's making me nervous.

Listen to every album first to last. Then you’ll understand.

[@feanrassilmaril579]

In fact it's thrash metal ;)

[@hallofrecords4959]

You should check out some testament, the new order is a good album.

[@rawbrob1079]

This is not heavy metal. This is thrash metal. And Tom Aray, the singer and front man for Slayer is from Chile. That's why the crowd went crazy.😂😂

[@LP090]

@Sebs Duran please react the song Angel of Death by SLAYER

[@OberDesiah]

It's not rage against the machine-esk. Slayer is more, eh, wholesome people. What they make is art.

Jane's Addiction three days. It's a really great song.

[@damienthrash2202]

Wait… did he actually compare Rage Against the Machine to Slayer??? Bro, I get what you’re doin but obviously the Black Album softened your generation and all others afterwards. I’m gonna help you by requesting bands that aren’t pussified Nu Metal, Grunge, or have the word “core (with the exception of Grindcore)” 👍🏾

You need to find this meme with Tom Araya, the singer. The photo is him with his lovely family, and the caption reads, "You could be in Slayer, and your teenage daughter will still think you're lame." Must see.

[@davelewis3775]

If you're on slayer now, you're ready for some Lamb of God. I would suggest redneck, now you got something to die for, laid to rest, or memento mori. They have some solid meanings and lyrics that I think you will love getting your teeth into.
