| Slayer Rated
A band that needs no introduction. And if it does need one for you, then please go sleep in a highway. | | 10 |  | Slayer
Diabolus in Musica
It sounds a lot like heresy but it happened: a Slayer album with a ridiculously strong rap feel to it. Fancy song titles and overall dark mood do not save this from being Slayer's worst album ever from a mile away. Nor prevent it from earning a Fallout Award. | | 9 |  | Slayer
Christ Illusion
Maybe I had the hopes high for this, but it failed to live up to God Hates Us All. A frankly repetitive experience with some highlights. | | 8 |  | Slayer
Show No Mercy
Does not show any mercy to its listener, that's for sure. Also has a pleasant classic flavour not found on anything they've done afterwards. But, maybe because they've made some of the greatest albums in history of metal, it feels a bit down. Maybe it could be higher though. | | 7 |  | Slayer
World Painted Blood
Proof positive that Slayer still kick ass (unlike Metallica). Shows the same ol' brutality...in 2009. That's right, 24 years after Hell Awaits they still reign in blood. | | 6 |  | Slayer
Seasons in the Abyss
In order to follow-up South of Heaven, Slayer did the expected: combined the brutal part ('86) with the melodic part ('88). Problem? Not much but it kinda fails to reach the same greatness of the two previous albums. | | 5 |  | Slayer
Hell Awaits
THIS is the album that made the legend. Blackish, but still a very aggressive thrash metal experience. | | 4 |  | Slayer
God Hates Us All
Most controversial pick. Slayer's 2001 resurrection after their 1998 disaster almost sounds like it was made by a newer band. Slipknotesque lyrics do not favour it (have you ever read the lyrics of "Threshold" or "Payback"?) but it surely returns with the aggression and technicality this band is known for. Hail "Disciple". | | 3 |  | Slayer
Divine Intervention
This list's second most controversial pick. Combines the brutality of Reign in Blood with the melody of South of Heaven in a much better way than Seasons in the Abyss, if you ask me. | | 2 |  | Slayer
South of Heaven
Two years after the most brutal album the world had ever seen, Slayer realized that they shouldn't use the same old formula. Instead, South of Heaven presents us a darker, more melodic attitude. And continues Slayer's reputation in being a masterpiece. It may be South of Heaven but it's north of great. | | 1 |  | Slayer
Reign in Blood
Is anyone surprised? The year was 1986. Slayer, trying to make a decent follow-up to their groundbreaking 1985 effort Hell Awaits, end up by making a classic, best-reckoned by the songs "Angel of Death" and "Raining Blood", although it does have lost gems that aren't all that remembered (e.g. "Postmortem"). Best metal album ever? Dunno, but it's one of my top 3 albums of the legendary year of 1986. | |

01.21.12 | Undisputed Aggression was not included because it's a cover album.
(and I haven't heard it yet :/ ) | AngelofDeath
01.21.12 | Awful ranking. | FrankRedHot
01.21.12 | Do you read anything besides online bullshit before you make dumb lists like this? | Divine
01.21.12 | Oh god, this ranking is terrible
| TheNotrap
01.21.12 | Dude to each his own but this rating... | NWOAHM666
01.21.12 | "Awful ranking."
I knew this was gonna be controversial. | KILL
01.21.12 | lol | kris.
01.21.12 | "It may be South of Heaven but it's north of great."
hahahaha | Divine
01.21.12 | I mean for starters, 6 and 7 are too low. | DominionMM1
01.21.12 | 6 needs to be much higher. The title track alone should move it up to 2 or 3. | FrankRedHot
01.21.12 | No, for starters, 10 doesn't have a "rapping feel" to it, no matter how bad it is. Stupid statement, as usual. I guess I shouldn't question it. I should expect you to bring the retard by now. | NWOAHM666
01.21.12 | "I mean for starters, 6 and 7 are too low."
Well sure, but we're talking about Slayer here...there's so much awesome material it even makes it hard to choose...ranking should be read like this:
10
9
8
7
6
5
4
3
2
1 | AngelofDeath
01.21.12 | Show No Mercy is the best. 3 and 4 suck. | TheNotrap
01.21.12 | Dude Show No Mercy and Seasons are classic stuff. | FrankRedHot
01.21.12 | NWOAHM told me once that he was in college/university, but the more I read of his lists/comments, the more I believe he's a 12 year old kid. | NWOAHM666
01.21.12 | "NWOAHM told me once that he was in college/university, but the more I read of his lists/comments, the more I believe he's a 12 year old kid."
The more I see you here the more I think you've just an idiot who's got too much free time in his hands. We're even. | FrankRedHot
01.21.12 | We're even? Even on what? Seriosuly, read more than user-generated false bullshit when making a list that's supposed to "inform" us. | tarkus
01.21.12 | "you've just an idiot" | Thane
01.21.12 | terrible ranking but 3 is seriously underrated. production is bad but some of those songs are my favorite slayer songs | NWOAHM666
01.21.12 | "'you've just an idiot'"
DAMMIT | FrankRedHot
01.21.12 | Figures. | kris.
01.21.12 | hahahaha this kid | ValeriusTheImmortal

Show No Mercy
Hell Awaits
Reign in Blood
Seasons in the Abyss
South of Heaven
Divine Intervention
i don't really care after this
imo show no mercy has timeless riffs and many slayer classics on it. hell awaits is an overlooked masterpiece that really is a landmark in extreme metal's move away from heavy metal/speed metal into something entirely its own. hell awaits is a near perfect record, imo even better than reign in blood. the "problem" with it, is that it is a subtle album that requires patience to appreciate, it isn't a kick in the balls that reign in blood is. People throw the word "atmosphere" around a lot today, but that is what Hell Awaits has in spades.
I mean you can like whatever you want, but the first three slayer albums are so influential and great, nothing has really topped them. | AngelofDeath
01.21.12 | lol | ValeriusTheImmortal
01.21.12 | lol bastard | SpiritCrusher2

so fucking true | FictionalFlames
01.21.12 | 3 & 4 need to be backed up behind 9 | jayt851
