Slaughter - Nocturnal Hell

[@guillotheworstnightmare1863]

i haven't heard this since 21 years! almost forgotten. Fortunately in a fight with my my daughter (AKA "almost 14") about real heavy bands I found this and I win this time.

[@pustysrodeczek8102]

Thank u black metal werewolf for showing me this band

[@vedransimic6641]

Wow this is much better than I expected /m/ !!!

[@schoof19]

One of the best chunk parts ever

[@holgerpetersen2896]

Their 'UH' s' as good as the 'UH's' from Switzerland 🇨🇭, hehe...

[@daywalkermike]

Yeah. And some of the riffs are very celtic and frosty , too. Good thing ! Iike bands that are heavily influenced by CF. Darkthrone and Obituary come mto my mind.

[@enriquemendez7590]

Lovely album cover artwork

[@MoltarTheGreat]

DEATHRASH!!!

[@DeathMetal6907]

I would say War Metal takes influence from FWBM like Bathory, Hellhammer, FWDM, Grindcore, and a lil Doom once in a while. Just listen to some of the breakdowns, intros, and some of the eerie melodies in War Metal. Blasphemy has very Death Metal type intros and melodies. In interviews Blasphemy talks about the Black Death scence and mentions people giving thanx to it. I also hear some Finnish Death influences in Archgoat.

[@angrymetalwizard1558]

Hey there is that buzz-saw sound that Entombed and Dismembered took.

[@kakstin]

Are they actually using an HM-2? Had it even been introduced to the market yet? Either way, this might be one of the earliest examples of the "chainsaw tone" so beloved by Swedish DM bands.

[@geoffroylagrange3513]

Nope, even if it's HM-2, for the buzzsaw tone, you need to put a distorsion on it ;-) so Leif Cuzner from Nihilist is still known as the creator of the buzzsaw tone.

[@heresyify]

@@geoffroylagrange3513 Yes, Leif got influence from R.A.V.A.G.E’s demo dating back to 1986 or so when he heard a cut off Raging Death.

[@DerEsty]

i love this album!

[@OjiHamidin]

ahhh thanks for sharing. One of the band that influenced my old grindcore band :) CRUSTY guitars FTW!!

[@DeathMetal6907]

Ya I agree, Discharge where the most influential punk band, what extreme metal band aren't influenced by them. I remember when Bolt Thrower was called war metal it was even in some magazines and interviews. It was because all of their songs where about war. It also had to do with how they got their name. They where punk before they where death too. Listen to Arch Goats heavinly vulva some of it sounds more doom/death. You can still hear traces of death metal in war metal.

[@DeathMetal6907]

I can hear the crust in it but you can also hear the thrash in it too. Punk pretty much created extreme metal if you think about. It's also where it gets it's look the bullet belts, boots, high tops, kuttes, leather jackets all came from punk. Slaughter where also influenced by sacrifice. Rob from sacrifice said in an interview that their sound was something between thrash and death metal. Also swedish death metal was influened by punk as in the stockholm sound.

[@DeathMetal6907]

Remember Possessed's Death Metal demo also came out in 84 giving the birth to the name of the genre. Death demos have always been around too. Look at Old fliers from Death It says Corpse Grinding Death Metal and this was when Kam Lee was still in the band. Look at Venom dude, People didn't call Venom Black Metal until they released the Black Metal Album. Death Metal was just really underground in 84. And SBG was the essential first true archtype of DM. Songs from the demos were on SBG too.

[@michaellehman5397]

Apparently it's illegal to like both Slaughter bands

[@Aaron-jn9me]

Well for me, no it's not.

[@dante666jt]

Yes true that.

[@dante666jt]

The other one sucks

[@michaelhz37]

@Randall Slaughter you just can't stand the heaviness

[@michaelhz37]

@Randall Slaughter no u can't

[@ericthehighlander]

I fucking love this band.

[@urnnandape]

You are correct!! !987 on Diabolic Force / Fringe Records!!!!! Killer fucking old school!!!!!!

[@MrIanstu88]

Up all night sleep all day!!

[@aidanfrench9401]

so much better than glam crap slaughter canadians know how to make good death metal and extreme metal in general

[@luisfernandogoncalves2277]

Nocturnal hellllll 🤘🤘😈

[@DeathMetal6907]

Slayer where always considered thrash also a pioneer of the genre. It seems like any band who had satanic lyrics was considered black metal back then. If kill em all had satanic lyrics, I bet it would be considered FWBM. Death metal was very influential to grindcore. Embury stated how the band got it's sound, saying they where into celtic frost, siege, a lot of hardcore punk and death metal bands and some industrial like the swans, just meshed everything together and played it really fast.

[@DeathMetal6907]

Yes I know this album came out in 87. Death's demo where never considered black metal, they where always considered death metal. Death metal was a genre in 84 when Mantas made it. It was only kept underground it was like the slow birth and the beginning of the genre. Also remember songs from the mantas and death demos were on scream bloody gore. Death metal was just really finding it's sound back then. SBG was just considered death metal's true archetypical release.

[@lacufd]

greaT,,

[@DeathMetal6907]

Ya I know it's mentioned in first wave black metal history. So is slayer's show no mercy and hell awaits and slayer is thrash. Darkthrone was influened by cryptic slaughter. Fenriz said slaughter's strappado was one of his favorite albums. He aslo listend to the shitty new york dolls who are glam punk. Darkthrone where also a death metal band called black death before turning black metal. Grindcore has death metal mixed in to it as well.

[@DeathMetal6907]

Scream Bloody Gore came out in 87. But remember Death's demo's they where playing death on the demos before 86. Also look at the demos when they where known as Mantas. Look at the Death By Metal demo it's Death Metal came out in 84. Also not all Death vocals sound the same either look at Death's vox comapared to vox of Demilich. They totally sound diffrent.

[@oswaldoayala7344]

death's are more thrash than death

[@fahrezirafid8]

@@oswaldoayala7344 Death more Death Metal for me, the gutar tone is far from Thrash

[@djobe420]

just had the 420th like fuck yeah

[@lddevo88]

Kick ass!

[@DeathMetal6907]

Listen to Procreation from Canada then listen to Blasphemy. Yeah they where influenced by Blasphemy. Rebirth into evil their first demo came out the same year as fallen angel of doom. But they are a death metal band, even Blasphemy said they're are death metal in an interview. Just listen to the lead work in blasphemy like the solos. They have a slayer and morbid angel feel to them. I would also say altars of madness had influenced war metal in a way too because of it's speed and chaotic sound.

[@dante666jt]

True

[@attilathehun0]

Holy shit! I thought slaughter was a hair band up all night sleep all day.

[@urnnandape]

Nope 87!! Nocturnal Hell demo was 1986 on Diabolic Force/ Fringe Records followed by debut album Strappado on Diabolic Force/ Fringe Records in 1987!! Look up info about them by googling this...Slaughter ( Canadian band) wiki !!

[@DeathMetal6907]

I do listen to crust dude. Fucking Amebix, Hellbastard, Antisect, Aus Rotten, Disfear, Driller Killer, Nausea, Capitalist Casualties, , Disorder, Electro Hippies. I know I really don't have any punk on my page I need to add some.

[@DeathMetal6907]

Ya but you can still hear some Morbid Angel in War Metal some times. Not all solos in death metal are long either. Blasphemy's solo's sound like they're in the penatonic scale. Ya I agree War Metal does tend to lead more on the grind side. But remember grindcore can also be technical too. I can still hear Death Metal in the sound but more grind then Death.

[@Destroyer666AU]

and a bit of autopsy, repulsion?

[@rigormortis6669]

Destroyer666AU This was one of the main influences for those bands.

[@theaterofsorrow99]

is there any recordings with chuck on this album or was the album recorded right after he left?

[@heresyify]

He was with them during a rehearsal in 1985.

[@DeathMetal6907]

Nope dude they're death thrash. Read interviews and look them up. Yes they where influenced by celtic frost, hellhammer, slayer, metallica, kiss, alice cooper and the plasmatics to name a few. They did mix hardcore punk into their music you can definitely hear it. But they are death thrash listen to the riffs, drumming, time signatures, tempo changes, and picking techniques. Look at terrorizer and repulsion they are grindcore but are still considered death metal too.

[@Godenschemering7]

@rohitchaoji Good call

[@theaterofsorrow99]

is this more on the thrash metal side or the death metal side of metal music

[@pipopower12]

yeeeeaaaaaaah! but I think this album is from 1987.

[@IntoTheMindlessAbyss]

Does anyone know if Chuck Schuldiner is playing guitar on this song?

[@luissoriano1203]

schouldiner in slaughter woow, I did not know 👍

[@rigormortis6669]

IntoTheMindlessAbyss No, the album came out the year after he left to focus on Death.

[@amphiskioj4512]

Check out the Fuck of Death rehearsal to hear him join Slaughter for a rendition of Legion of Doom.....one of the greatest moments in metal history

The guitar you hear is DAVE HEWSON of Slaughter!!!! 🤘🤘🤘🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🍻🍻🍻

[@TrafficRiot911]

He's talking about "Serpent Temptation" Incubus, not "Make Yourself" Incubus.

[@MusicSportsPolitics]

@pipopower12 Nope. 1986.

[@CanukMetaller21]

Kudos to you sir, no one has successfully made me snort beer out through my nose up until I read your comment. Hurts like a fucking bitch. Keep it metal \m/

[@DeathMetal6907]

Ya I know that but he did not have the same style as the punks did. The punks had way more spikes and studs compared to Halford. Halford never wore kuttes either.

[@DeathMetal6907]

Slaughter is death thrash.

[@m.tammekivi]

Which version of _Strappado_ is this from?

[@m.tammekivi]

Nevermind, found out it's the 2001 remaster. Quite hard to find.

[@SimoneBattaglia94]

It sounds more like crossover thrash than death/thrash

[@rohitchaoji]

Reminds me of Incubus.

[@holgerpetersen2896]

Uh!

[@axelgorgo]

nope 1986

[@DeathMetal6907]

Death thrash not death metal.

[@DeathMetal6907]

Nope death thrash.

[@fishsticks8198]

This is worse than I expected. Repetitive memorably boring guitar riff that clashes with the drum beat, vocals are just that. Vocals. nothing special. Lyrics are pretty cool but what the fuck, the same boring riff for a whole minute and 20 seconds? Only part worth listening to starts at 1:15 and ends at about 2:00.

[@localcrisis]
