that album was so brutal when it cam out. One of the most underrated metal albums. Killing field is a bad ass opener.

[@olvbenson]

[@hydroguy6927]

I will never forget my 13th Birthday. It was a chilly Sept as I was rolling through the killer HMV Heavy Metal section with my Grandfather in downtown Toronto at the time and I saw this record on display. This album was released that week also, so I asked the employee to throw on Divine Intervention so I could hear just what this BAD ASS album cover sounded like, Slayer? Who? What? By the time Killing Fields was over I pulled off the headphones and I looked at my Gramps who instantly purchased this album for me as I became a Slayer fan right then and there... forever... Still sits as my fav Metal album of all time to this day honestly. Thanks to my Grandpa for purchasing it for me, that record projected and opened the entire world of Heavy Metal for me. Metallica couldnt even do that, not the way Slayer could lol. I miss my Grandfather everyday and Slayer as well. GREAT video! 🤘💪

[@rikosimmo]

Divine Intervention is their darkest most aggressive and progressive record. Easily.

[@Howard_the_Duck]

You just described hell awaits

[@AdamFisher]

Those are my two favourite slayer records. Closely followed by Haunting the Chapel and South of Heaven.

[@embracerodusk2537]

@@Howard_the_Duck The only thing that held Hell Awaits back was the crap production. If it had the sound of RIB or any album after that it would have been crushing.

[@adriansmith76]

i get what you're saying but where does that leave God Hates Us All..!😅 My favourite.🤟

[@Howard_the_Duck]

@@embracerodusk2537 I think the production suits the atmosphere of the album well. I dont think it would sound as good with a rick rubin production

[@thenephilimm]

this album is underrated. some killer riffs on this album.

[@---HADES---]

that guitar is wicked.

[@nicolasbeaudry6158]

And wicked it is , imagine flat black or crazy urban camo flat for Jeff tribute 👍🏻🤘🏻💯

[@mattjns]

Gary Holt’s personal pickups. He literally sold em to Ola! 🤘🏼

[@JoseGarcia-eadgbe]

I love that guitar too 🤩

[@Broccoli_Highkicks]

Fun too, when you have to somehow tune it in the middle of a 3 minute 37 second song.

[@ar156]

I love this album, always have! Great performance by Bostaph too

[@nigeltufneljunior]

Yes defiitely an underrated Slayer album! Very consistent, and the guitar solos are even better then usually, they sound less like a random set of notes :-)

[@Decimation13]

Bostaph > Lombardo

[@AJoylessEon]

Bostaph slays on this album.. i like lombardo but this was another level.

[@willrichtor]

This and Testament's Formation of Damnation are my 2 favourite Bostaph recordings.

[@mymanjoker]

"213" alone is haunting

[@randynelson9961]

One of Slayers coolest album cover artwork! Jeff’s solos on that album are on point! 🤘

[@JGC1]

Jeff solos on this album are all the same. That's is the only thing not perfect on the set.

[@TheHeadown]

Love this album too, and I agree, it´s very underrated!

[@UncleRJ]

Next, please do "Ola Learns Cannibal Corpse" and do Condemnation Contagion. It's a good song to practice your power chording hand.

[@vetsapuu]

How about Frantic disembowelment, we'd get to see Ola losing his mind.

[@FuzzyPeanut00]

Frantic disembowlment is an insane track.

[@JunkfoodZombieGuns]

One of my favorite Slayer albums. Dittohead is pure awesomeness.

[@metal-ant]

Love Divine Intervention, so many classic songs 🤘🏻🤘🏻

[@steven_marque_official_channel]

I like this feature of your channel best! It brings back great memories and it's pretty inspirational to go back and relearn the stuff too. As you were playing I was thinking that you might be thinking, (like I would be thinking,) about incorporating the style into my own compositions. Which is really why I started learning other's songs anyway. ❤ Great one Ola, the channel is still as fresh and fun as ever.

[@shaunsterrett7455]

Favorite Slayer song, favorite Slayer album. Great choice!

[@lidiaspazzard]

I love Sex, Murder, Art. That's a nasty piece of work.

[@thombrannan2589]

DIVINE INTERVENTION and PRIDE & GLORY were the first music purchases I made with my own money when I was fresh out of boot camp. Great times, great albums, and man, you absolutely DEMOLISHED it!

[@randinho8872]

When you're learning the spider riff it reminds me so much of myself, even the look away as you try and force your brain to push through and remember the exact way it's meant to be played

[@steven_marque_official_channel]

I remember learning this with Killing Fields & especially 213, when it was released; I was 30 😊 I think this was the best record of 94. The drums on Fictional Reality are great too! #ScavengersClosingIn

[@Paul_Lenard_Ewing]

I would have leaned it in '64 because I just got a Maestro Fuzz tone and could finally get a Metal sound thru my National amp, 😇

[@Earth-Worm-Tim]

As I mentioned in my comment above I was a bit younger but Killing Fields, 213, and Fictional Reality are the albums top 3 for sure. I had to edit this comment to add Divine Intervention as well. So I suppose this album cannot be reduced to only 3 best songs for me lol.

[@chaptermasterpedrokantor1623]

Killing Fields is awesome because of the 5/5 beat. I remember slapping some music professor with it who claimed that all rock was in 4/4.

[@steven_marque_official_channel]

@@chaptermasterpedrokantor1623 Ha! That's awesome.

[@steven_marque_official_channel]

When the Dahmer craze started last year with the TV shows, I kept thinking Slayer's management should have been more plugged in, because as I'm sure you know, 213 was his apartment number.

[@silverjaw138]

This album came out in the height of grunge and alternative. This album carried the faithful

[@BalashToth]

What a cool song choice. Divine Intervention is my favorite Slayer album too🤘

[@LookingForEntertainment112]

Yeah, Divine Intervention was the first Slayer album that got me out of flannel and into Thrash. For some reason folks love to hate on it and the Undisputed Attitude. They're both killer albums.

[@silverjaw138]

💯 And undisputed attitude is pure brutality

[@mattlebel]

Where I’m from, flannels belonged to the thrashers before they became a Nirvana thing. Another reason that whole era pissed me off.

[@Artec619]

@@mattlebel how are people still holding a grudge against grunge 30 years later?

[@jackbootshamangaming4541]

​@@mattlebelthey didn't in LA or the Bay area. Sorry poser

[@mattlebel]

@@jackbootshamangaming4541 poser? Seriously dude. How can it be poser-ish if we were doing it a full decade before grunge existed? Also I’m from Boston. It’s cold there. You needed to wear something between your tshirt and your leather jacket, thus, flannel. Cliff Burton wore flannels. Guess he was a poser too? Countless photos of thrash bands wearing flannels in the 80s.

[@KamKam8383]

Awesome Album. 213 is my absolute favourite.

[@JohnGaray]

Wow, talk about inspiring Lamb Of God

[@sirtogii5216]

Great one! Just imagine having the skill and talent to just break down a tune like that in an hour or so. Amazing

[@BobcatMcBobbins]

Agreed. Ola breaks it down so well and so easily-and makes it fun. It would take me years to learn all these techniques. Amazing work. Another spectacular Ola production! 🤘🏾😈🎸🎶🎵❤️‍🔥

[@doc25000]

Fictional Reality is a killer tune! First time seeing Slayer was this tour in early 95' at Hara Arena in Dayton, OH, Biohazard, Machinehead were on the bill as well.....Good shit Ola!

[@shankdenchman7970]

I love biohazard!!!!

[@brandonjackson5865]

Cool to see in the comments I’m not the only one that this is their favorite Slayer album. When I heard Serenity in Murder and 213 I was hooked. I think their more groove mid tempo stuff is incredible. Devine, South of Heaven and Seasons in the Abyss !

[@rikosimmo]

My 3 favourites 🎯

[@StealthMockingbird]

Man I wish I could've slowed down riffs in the 80s/90s. Had to learn Slayer off the records. FYI: Kerry downpicks pretty much everything so he's likely downpicking that opening/main riff.

[@mattlebel]

Yeah my 13 year old self is so jealous of this tech that makes learning songs so much easier. It was a nightmare having to rewind fucking cassettes over and over. I was really happy when I finally got a CD player and it had an option to loop a section and also delay starting a song after hitting play. Those were game changers at the time.

[@carvinieri5217]

Divine Intervention - killer album

[@mextrem7933]

Yes!!!! These really are my favorite videos on the channel! I remember you saying you would probably do more of these some time ago on discord vc, and you did!! Keep up the great work Ola, I love the title track from this album.

[@Luciusvictor]

I love this BC Rich Warlock guitar!!! Ola you should make more videos with that awesome guitar!

[@full_metal_troy8394]

The one thing that always got me about slayer, is that despite all the hectic leads the rhythm groove when it hits has always been just so badass. So groovy man.

[@MLDurant]

Love ittttt! The best is when I smile, you smile. 🤘 keep em’ coming!

[@primaballerina84]

Divine Intervention! First time I heard Slayer as well! THE CHOICE IS MADE OF FREE WILL JUST LIKE THE CHOICE TO KILL!!! Amazing Almunge when hitting the gym 💪🏻

[@roachzero2952]

Good shit , Mr. Ola the Swede !!! Reign in Blood album was my intro to Slayer but i'm actually glad you chose to go outside the box . Great song selection too !

[@robertoricci3393]

Bostaph drumming on this record is killer. Killing fields blew me away when I started to play drums. Also Diabolus and God hates us all have amazing drum parts.

[@kent6619]

Dude. This was such a fun video! I laughed several times. A very relatable video. A true archive of the human metalhead guitarist to be put in a time capsule. I've written more as I've gotten older, but how did I ever lose my way and stop cranking the stereo and amp and just stand there and play along with a killer song? Thanks man!

[@Howard_the_Duck]

I love the channel guidelines for posting. Nothing says metal like being civil and respectful.

[@logancleary374]

It's comforting to know that Ola gets as frustrated as I do when figuring songs out 😅
