HIP HOP FAN Slayer - Raining Blood (REACTION!!!)

"Raining Blood" is a song by the American thrash metal band Slayer. It is the final track on their third studio album, "Reign in Blood," which was released in 1986. The song is considered one of Slayer's signature tracks and is often cited as one of the greatest thrash metal songs of all time.
"Raining Blood" is known for its aggressive guitar riffs, fast-paced drumming, and intense lyrics. The lyrics were written by Slayer's guitarist Jeff Hanneman and describe a scene of raining blood and chaos. The song is often associated with its iconic guitar solo and has become a staple in Slayer's live performances.
Slayer, formed in 1981, is widely regarded as one of the "Big Four" thrash metal bands alongside Metallica, Megadeth, and Anthrax. They have had a significant impact on the development of thrash metal and extreme metal genres.

[@mikegarcia6935]

I have back problems, hip pains, knee issues and whiplash from watching songs like this live. Totally worth it 🤘🏽

[@laurenfazenbaker9777]

The beginning of this song is really the end of the song before it called Postmortem. The song has more context when you listen to Postmortem/Raining Blood as a whole track like it was intended when released in 1986. RIP Jeff Hanneman

[@amandahuginkiss6868]

Agreed. the entire album is great, even though it clocks in at under half an hour. The standout tracks for me have always been Angel of Death, Altar of Sacrifice, Jesus Saves, Postmortem, Raining Blood. The others are decent, but those are the tracks that get played live when I was going to SLAYER shows..

[@ereignishorizontab7218]

That's wrong, the track marker is at the wrong place in the original vinyl, it's simply a failure, and unfortunately it was taken over to the discversion.

[@laurenfazenbaker9777]

@@ereignishorizontab7218 was it wrong on the cassette too, where there was ZERO pause between the songs? You see , I still have that cassette from 1986...... It's even written on the sleeve as " Postmortem/Raining Blood", and plays as ONE song, like Holy Wars/ The Punishment Due. There is no break between the songs such as is between Reborn and Postmortem.

[@ereignishorizontab7218]

@@laurenfazenbaker9777 I don't know about the cassette version, my first version i bought on disc in 1994 and it had also the marker failure, and this was also well known at this time. They corrected it on later versions and listed the songs seperatly, there's also a note about it on metal archives. Sorry for my rough english, it's not my native language.

[@laurenfazenbaker9777]

@@ereignishorizontab7218 no worries about the English. English isn't my first language as well, so I understand. I got my copy in 1986 on cassette, and I have worn that poor thing out

[@chaospoet]

Saw Slayer perform this live a bunch of times. People LOST their minds. They would deliberately extend that spooky opening for as much as 3 minutes some shows just to build the anticipation as much as humanly possible. When it ended and they went to it people went insane. One show I literally got football tackled by a dude who threw my ass back about 10 feet all the while screaming "SLAAAAAAAAAAAYERRRRRRRR!" After he helped me to my feet we put our arms around each other and screamed every word of this song like our lives depended on it. Good times.

[@jessicadavenport2808]

[@mikecarter5631]

I’m 51 and have been a Slayer fan since my mom took me to see them play under the name Serpent, at Children’s Hospital in Los Angeles, in 1983, just before they released their first album. Bro, when they released Reign In Blood, even my reaction was like yours. This record really helped define the thrash metal genre, and was harder than anything they’d turned out previously.

[@planzed.2]

I’m 52, in the Uk & first I heard them was this album was when released & I felt like you guys! But you’ve got a really cool story there, thanks for sharing. Hope you’re well!

[@TheZoorat]

I'm also 51 and it was my dad that turned me on to them back in the 80's and decades later my son takes me to see them for his first time.

[@xgymratx]

Im 54 and ordered the haunting the chapel record from the back of rip magazine or maybe hit parader I remember hearing chemical warfare for first time.....then show no mercy then hell awaits.....but when RIB came out holy shit......that was slayers peak and i think raining blood is the most iconic song from album even non slater fans recognize it

That must have been f****** awesome man I'm jealous I also been a fan since hell awaits I am the same age as you 🤟🤟🤟💯

I saw them live in smaller clubs a few times. The pits were insane!! The whole floor was moving like a wave! Awesome band to see live.

[@stuckinfoned79]

I went to see slayer and pantera in dallas texas, when slayer hit the stage the thunder started. Then the drums. The first riff piecerced through the stadium and the crowd tension was building. Then the place erupted, as blood fell from the rafters upon the stage! The crowd erupted into total chaos!!! Within seconds the chairs on the floor were flying to the edges!! The police scrambled to leave the area as bon fires and fireworks erupted in the pits! People were burning their shirts and blankets in the fires and twirrling them around their heads as pieces of flamming material reigned down around the pit! When slayer finished the set, the whole place was in complete shambles. As several bon fires could be seen still burning throught the entire venue. It was hands down the best concert I've ever been to. I still think about how the whole stadium just erupted into total chaos and how quickly the police and security scattered!
