National Slayer Day

2006-05-27 by south_of_heaven 11 | 49 Comments
As we all know, a boatload of crappy albums and cheesy-horror films will be released to correspond with the date of 6/6/6, just because it is “The Number of the Beast”. However, according to www. nationaldayofslayer.org, this day is now dedicated to the true evil Kings, that which is Slayer.

Here is the official statement of participation from www.nationaldayofslayer.org:

- Listen to Slayer at full blast in your car.
- Listen to Slayer at full blast in your home.
- Listen t Slayer at full blast at your place of employment.
- Listen to Slayer at full blast in any public place you prefer.

It is also stated NOT TO USE HEADPHONES. Blast Slayer’s music as loud as you possibly can at all times, and don’t care about bystanders.

They also listed ways to take National Slayer Day to the extreme with these great ideas:

-Stage a "Slay-out." Don't go to work. Listen to Slayer.
- Have a huge block party that clogs up a street in your neighborhood. Blast Slayer albums all evening. Get police cruisers and helicopters on the scene. Finish with a full-scale riot.
- Spray paint Slayer logos on churches, synagogues, or cemeteries.
- Play Slayer covers with your own band (since 99% of your riffs are stolen from Slayer anyway).
- Kill the neighbor's dog and blame it on Slayer.

This is seriously not a joke. 6/6/6 only comes around once a century. Make it a Slayer day to remember!

Quote:
National holidays in America aren't just about celebrating; they're about forcing it upon non-participants.
*And on a side note, Slayer’s EP, which contains a new song and some backstage material, will be released on the same day, but can only be purchased exclusively at Hot Topic.

Have a great, and riot-filled June 6th my fellow Slayer friends!

the date is really 6-6-06, therefore all devil references, the end of all times, The Omen remake, and National Slayer Day are all irrelevant. The extra 0 makes all the difference in the world.

This is the stupidest thing I've ever heard.

Or maybe it's just because I'm not much of a Slayer fan.This Message Edited On 05.27.06

This is tru, because the national slayer day would have been... Acording to logic, 6/6/6... In which the day we are talking about is actually 6/6/2006

It's the closest were gonna get to the date being 6/6/6, 6/6/06 has three sixs' that are only seperated by zeros.

Zeros have no value, so in abrieviated form, 06 would be 6. But since it's 2006, it's a moot point.

Slayer doesn't care about that though. They just want some Satan.

It is not 666 anymore they now know, theologians will tell you that the earliest reference the the number of the beast says it is 616. HIM have started to get thier song titles corrected when they play live now. Roll on Slayer day anyway! Also, where can we get the EP in the UK? We dont have hot topic.

A lot of bands say they are Satanists etc to piss off fundamentard Christians, eg Glen Benton said songs like Kill The Christian were to piss off his Christian relatives or something like that. Happy Satanmas to you all, I have 3 AS exams on 6/6/06 sadly...

On 6/6/6 Taco Bell will announce a 20% profit margin due to the overwhelming number of layoffs stemming from employees staying home and listening to Slayer.
you heard it hear first, better start investing.

Is Slayer the ONLY satanic band to celebrate on 666! Come on, there' also Emperor, Mayhem, Deicide, and many more. Let's have a frenzy!

They're not even Satanic. Slayer. I'm willing to assume that any Norwegian band takes their Satan/fun pretty seriously.

This is pretty stupid though. My DC Talk and Thousand Foot Krutch will be playing over the nonsense of Slayer fans. Nothing personal, its just pure idiotic.

nah, its not Slayer that made it up. It's some non-profit organization out in Wyoming. The day was also gonna be an "un-official" Day of Prayer, so these guys thought it'd be cool to make it Slayer day. None of the rioting and killing dogs is really gonna happen, it was just thrown in there for a laugh. However, the day is just supposed to be one for Slayer fans to have an excuse to listen to their music from sunrise to sunset...something most of already do anyway.

Bron-Yr-Aur, are you saying that Slayer is not Satanic or the bands that I mentioned?

Slayer isn't Satanic. They're more pagan, but they don't worship Satan. A band can be anti-Catholic and associate themselves with blood-soaked Bibles on their album covers and still not be Satanic.

Exactly, I don't think they are, the bands I mentioned ARE self-proclaimed Satanists! Some Slayer fans just created this "holiday, i guess" because Slayer are becoming dinosaurs and falling off the map. HOT TOPIC! WTF! Come on Slayer, you guys rock, don't fall victim to Hot Topic.This Message Edited On 05.30.06
