I'm surprised your not more into early Slayer considering they played 1st wave BM/Speed metal

Album Rating: 3.0

i like show no mercy because it's kind of like a speedier iron maiden with cool aesthetics, but man everything after is just cheese for me. never clicked man, never clicked for me

Have you heard Haunting the Chapel?

Album Rating: 3.0

God damnit I don't understand why people love Slayer so much

Album Rating: 3.0

i'll give haunting the chapel a listen it's been a loooong time



gotta drive to orange county now gonna be stuck in traffic forever fuckgkgkhc

Haunting the Chapel is quite similar to SNM but maybe a little more intense, so I'd imagine you'd get some enjoyment out of it, It's actually my favorite Slayer.

nice dig btw, I still need to listen to them.

Why do people like Slayer so much? There are very few albums that can compete with this album in terms of speed and brutality, even today. Just imagine what it was like hearing this almost 30 years ago.

IMO Slayer are boring and suffer from a profound lack of creativity.

Lack of creativity



Except, you know, their highly influential first six albums

Album Rating: 3.0

Sure, they can rightfully be attributed with helping kickstart the genre, but that doesn't automatically make them the godfathers of thrash.

Oh they influenced SO much more than just Thrash

also they wrote riffs that are still untouched today

Album Rating: 3.0

Expect for the fact that the majority of Slayer riffs are just variations of diminished triads with the second guitar harmonizing in 4ths

Album Rating: 5.0

ooh he broke out music theory, everyone step off he means business!

technical does not = good

also riffz >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> solos

Album Rating: 3.0

Because, you know, it takes a very in-depth knowledge of advanced music theory to know what a triad is.

Album Rating: 4.0

riffz >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> solos [2]



You cant really argue otherwise

Album Rating: 3.0

I also find it quite amusing that you consider making fun of me for talking in barely technical terms to equate to a valid rebuttal.

Slayer aren't creative...lol. They've only had a profound influence on half of the sub-genres of metal.

edit: shit nvm, confused triads with triplets lmao. english isn't my primary language etc.

"Expect for the fact that the majority of Slayer riffs are just variations of diminished triads with the second guitar harmonizing in 4ths"

this isn't true but even if it was then what does it matter
