I've been listening to Slayer since 1985, when I bought "Hell Awaits" on vinyl. I was 13 then, and 30 years later, metal is still my first love, & Slayer remains the one band that I can never tire of listening to. They are way better of a band than Metallica, who seem to get "best metal band ever" mentioned entirely too often in the same sentence, but in reality, Slayer is much more representative of the genre, & have released not one, not two, not three, but four classic albums in their career. What's even more amazing is they were released consecutively: Hell Awaits, Reign In Blood, South Of Heaven, & Seasons In The Abyss. Most bands can't muster one or two records of material that will go down as a benchmark in their genre, but this band has, undoubtedly.

[@kcregalado]

Adrenaline courses through my body, the pain leaves my aching, worn joints, and I am immersed in batle lust. And even now I will enter the pit, shoulders and elbows, fists and feet, heads and hands. And through the sweat, and the blood, and the pain, and the puke, there is brotherhood. There is JOY!!! I've gone to seed a bit, but my old 265# ass can still clear a space! There will soon come a day when I can no longer join the maelstrom. And when that day comes, I will listen to these riffs and remember. And with these memories, I shall always REIGN IN BLOOD!!!!

Their best album, one that combines the frenetic energy of Reign in Blood and the heaviness of South of Heaven. One of those rare albums I sing along to, and listen front to back every single time I play it!

[@MrJackcorgi]

this was a great album compared to SOUTH OF HEAVEN .for me personally ,south of heaven is like slayers attempt at a pop album. dont get me wrong here... when it was first released, me and my friends played this tape 1000s of times and loved having a new slayer album after playing the others 1000s of times as well .i went to the SOH concert when it came to town,and probably have the stub somewhere it was a great show in a tiny club packed with rabid slayer fans. the band actually went to a friends after party (that i missed :-l ) i guess tom and dave were totally cool to everyone and kerry and jeff were total assholes to everyone.lol imo HELL AWAITS and REIGN IN BLOOD are their best albums musically and lyrically .

[@SonOfTheLion]

@@MrJackcorgi I've always preferred the lyrics of SOH and Seasons. Songs like South of Heaven, Silent Scream, Blood Red and this song have much more important messages than anything on Reign or Hell Awaits. The satanic violence is fun but songs like these are profound. I think Seaons hit the right balance between Reign and SOH even if I prefer the Reign sound better.

[@KasumiRINA]

@@SonOfTheLion All of them are mostly satirical. Slayer used shock value for clout, of course, but the lyrics are tongue in cheek... I mean, Tom Araya supports experiments of Dr. Mengele as much as war crimes and bloody human sacrifice rituals. Difference is some songs are more gore for sake of it (kinda like Carcass or Napalm Death) and others are deeper but in the end, it's mostly irony on dark topics that were always bread and butter of Metal.

[@SonOfTheLion]

@@KasumiRINA A song like Silent Scream is about abortion and it isn't satire. Jeff and Tom where/are pro-life. Neither is Blood Red's anti-commie message or South of Heavens's warning about our fallen culture. What makes Slayer great is they aren't your run of the mill Death Metal band like Cannibal Corpse. Tom himself has spoken in interviews about how he wants to illuminate the evil in the world so you can find your way to the good.

Im a pre-teen who loves metal,thrash in special, and i got to say that Slayer is a masterpiece,its sad that im never seeing them live

[@v-for-vendetta1776]

I saw them only 1 X, & it was w/all original members in 2010, & I will never forget it! They played 'Seasons' in its entirety as it was the 20th anniversary of that masterpiece of an album! I am sorry you never got to see them live, but, they have released many Live DVD's & BR's though! It's not the same as actually being there, but, at least you can enjoy what they sound like live to some degree! It is a shame the Live concert they filmed of "Decade Of Aggression" was never actually released, although they claimed back in '91 that it would be! Sucks when bands mislead their fans!

Absolutely one of my fav Slayer tunes. Something so pure about it, and energizing. When this came out when me an my buds were teenagers we completely lost our shit. Amazing album.

[@invasionofyourprivacyl.a5445]

This is one of the hardest heavy metal songs to play.

[@robi-wo9mc]

Damn. 80's and early 90's were the best time to be around in terms of good music. I was lucky enough to be there.

[@jackduncan4228]

I was a huge Dead Kennedy’s fan back in the early eighties even though I was a young teenager. I loved Slayer from the first time I heard them. I was at this gig. The feeling amongst the fans waiting to get in was one of extreme camaraderie. We were all waving Slayer banners and sharing what our favourite tracks were. There were two American chicks there that had followed them to England for their gigs here. It’s very hard to find words to describe what the gig was like. It was an assault on the senses. It was so loud and brutal. I’d taken speed before going in, so I was full of energy and it all sounded so good. I remember my ears ringing all the way back down to Portsmouth on the train. The dawn came and I had sore legs and a sore neck, but I was still buzzing from the gig. I sneaked in a dictaphone to make a bootleg tape of the gig. The sound quality was terrible but people still bought it.

Thrash metal in a nutshell

[@LoathingWretch]

I remember playing this song in Highschool, and trying it out for our airjams, the teachers immediately rejected it, they said it had too much kill in it! My buddy at the time, that was pretending to be the guitar player Jeff Hanneman, was headbanging so hard, he couldn't make it into school, the next day, he said his neck felt like a spaghetti noodle when he rolled out of bed! Lol!

[@yankees29]

We played this is high school but we got away with it. Lol

[@phonologic]

Decade of Aggression was one of my favourite albums in high school. I discovered Slayer after hearing them on the Fall Line Flim's Critical Condition snowboarding vid from '91. My fondest memory of Slayer would have to be the time I got suckered into going to a four-day Christian retreat (not relegious) and on the 12 hour bus ride, listening to Seasons and Reign the whole way. When a goodie Christian kid asked me what I was listening to, I showed him the tape cover and he blessed himself before squealing on me to the elders lol. Despite their disapproval, I kept listening by myself. Best F'n choice I made that whole summer.

[@krazeemetalchickstewart9961]

I have been a metal fan for the past 30 years and I am very proud of it

[@aarondavis4341]

I've ALWAYS loved how Tom stands there chanting lyrics all nice and calm. Out of the big 4 Slayer rocks the hardest,the fact that Tom's neck is all screwed up from years of head banging, alin3 proves that you don't hear any of the other 3 bands saying they can't headbang anymore ,ALL HAIL THE GREAT SLAYER!

[@greatriffishere]

Yeah, i use to think Slayer rocked the hardest, but Metallica takes it to the next level!! Both bands are great!!

[@KasumiRINA]

@@greatriffishere Metallica have extreme ups and downs, Slayer are always consistent but a bit samey. Both are legends.

[@chrisnorris2076]

Saw em live for the first time in 1994, and left with a bloody nose. Saw em again in 2018, and left with even less hearing. Both concerts were fucking amazing.

[@merdith6]

Slayer is the kind of band that makes me hear modern heavy metal music and pretty much laugh.

[@saul4307]

This song reminds me of my state history class, my teacher was a coach and a pretty big fan of Slayer. There was one time he let me put this song on in class because some girl wanted to know what the hell we'd be talking about. That was a damn good class.

This was the first Slayer song that I heard back in '92, and it still rocks as much as it did then, more than 30 years later! A perfect compliment to my "nerdy" wargaming and tabletop roleplaying, with a smidgen of alcohol and drugs 😂
