The Legacy = Testament's best album.

Why?
It has Apocalyptic City.

\m/!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

For Coroner, get R.I.P... personally I don't dig Ron Royce's vocals, but the music on its own is just awesome... technical thrash riffing at its best.

You actually said The instead of Teh....I'm suprised. The Legacy is a great album......Over The Wall, Burnt Offerings, First Strike Is Deadly etc etc. Think I might have a listen to it now actually.

^ Oh shi.t, I did. :p whoops.

Hmmm, I need some more Testament. What are some good songs/albums when they started playing more death metal?


NP: World Sinfonia - Libertango. You guys should listen to this stuff, good stuff.

Try "The Gathering". There's some pretty heavy songs on that album.

Low, The gathering and Demonic but i would say demonic was the worst of the lot

I forgot to say that if I join, my album acronym will be PTK for Pleasure To Kill.

SLAYER guitarist Jeff Hanneman recently spoke to the Rock N Roll Experience web site about the group's upcoming CD, METALLICA, MEGADETH mainman Dave Mustaine and his past drug use. The following are some of the highlights of the interview:

Rock N Roll Experience: What did you think of METALLICA's progression?

Jeff Hanneman: "I guess you could say we saw it coming, because even back in the day when they were heavy as ****, Lars [Ulrich] was into some kind of new wave bands and he was always talking about that kind of crap, so you can see it coming, but I don't know, we listened to punk and stuff like that and we are not listening to metal or whatever, so there was no reason for us to change."

Rock N Roll Experience: What do you think of [MEGADETH mainman] Dave Mustaine finding God after he got sober?

Jeff Hanneman: "I don't know [laughs]. All I know about him is I used to like his guitar playing a lot, I liked his first few records, of course I liked his stuff when he was in METALLICA and I liked his solos because they were like really technical, but they had an anger to them with a little over-the-edge type of sound, but his last few albums were just too commercial for me. Personally, I think the guy is a little out of his mind, but I get along with him."

Rock N Roll Experience: Did you have any drug problems?

Jeff Hanneman: "Well, me and Tom (Araya) and some of my friends, we used to really be into cocaine, and like one day Tom was dropping me off at home and I think it was 7 or 8 in the morning and I think it was after two days of staying up and he's driving and I'm shoving **** up his nose & I'm taking stuff and this can lead to only death or something, this is going too far. So I quit and he quit and I think he (Tom) just smokes pot now and I drink and that's about it. We quit because I was taking pills and doing all of that ****, it was just like, one day, you know what, it's enough!"

Rock N Roll Experience: When is the new SLAYER CD coming out?

Jeff Hanneman: "I think we are gonna go in January, we were trying to get it out this year & it turned out that way because Rick Rubin [American Recordings head honcho] is changing distributors again like always and we figured why do the record now and have it sit on the shelf."

I actually liked God Hates Us All. It wasn't absolutely fantastic or anything, but I never understood why the fans ripped it apart so.

God Hates Us All was poor for slayer standards but was still better than alot other stuff released at the time actually i think Diabolus In Musica was worse

Yea, DiM was pretty bad...

everything of theirs after Seasons.... sucked

SLAYER Frontman TOM ARAYA: 'Live Peacefully And Love One Another'
 

SLAYER Frontman TOM ARAYA: 'Live Peacefully And Love One Another'

SLAYER frontman Tom Araya recently spoke to the Denver Westword about his band, his voice, prison letters, child rearing, God, world music and exploiting Satan for fun and profit. Several excerpts from the interview follow:

Westword: Do you still get letters from incarcerated people?

Tom Araya: "Yeah. They're pretty out there. It's like 'Man, dude, maybe it's a good thing you are in jail.' They're genuine letters. I know that they're kids. It's great that SLAYER inspires them to carry on. There's hope. Which is really odd to be saying. People say that listening to SLAYER has helped them along in crucial parts of their life. I've gotten letters from Marines and different branches of the military. They're pretty trippy, too. Actual accounts of them in Iraq listening to SLAYER while they're doing what they do. I'd like to think that it's the music giving them aggression and strength. It kind of recharges your batteries. It's like some of these athletes that we've met listen to SLAYER to get 'em pumped up. Mostly in hockey and football."

Westword: What's the biggest misconception people have about SLAYER?

Tom Araya: "The obvious one: the Satan stuff. I'm not here to fault anybody. And I hate to say this, but Christ came and taught us about love. About doing unto others. That was his preach: Accept each other for who we are. Live peacefully, and love one another. Period."

Westword: Do you believe in God?

Tom Araya: "I believe in a supreme being, yeah. But He's an all-loving God."

Westword: Can you see how people might miss that message in your music?

Tom Araya: "Yeah. And I don't fault them for that. Songs are open for interpretation, you know? It's like we can both be looking at a flower, but the information that we absorb is different about that flower."

Westword: But SLAYER is not about spreading the love.

Tom Araya: "SLAYER's about what we enjoy. Putting together some really cool songs. Like on 'God Hates Us All'. There's some really good stuff in there lyrically that just blows my mind. That's something that intrigues me about what I write. The serial-killer stuff is like, 'What thought process led you to this?' It's like everyone has been asking for a sign. The Twin Towers were a ****in' sign! Actually [September 11, 2001] was the release date of 'God Hates Us All'. We did a midnight signing at a Tower Records. They had over 3,000 kids there. We were supposed to fly out the next day and start a tour in Europe."

Actually [September 11, 2001] was the release date of 'God Hates Us All'. We did a midnight signing at a Tower Records.

Tower Records eh?...

According to the GHUA poster on my wall it was 10th September 2001

Well i was just simple cutting and pasting lol thats what it said


edit: Actually now i think about it, it was 10th september it came out

Stupid tom.

Exploiting satan and senseless destruction... :(

I've just taken this from [url]www.metalhammer.co.uk[/url]

22 Jul 2004 Slayer are now looking to begin recording their as yet untitled new studio album in January.

Chimaira guitarist Matt DeVries told Metal Hammer.co.uk: "I've heard some demos and it's awesome dude! It's a mixture of all of Slayer. I don't know how to describe it properly, but if I had to it's a mix of 'Reign In Blood' and 'God Hates Us All'. It's killer!"

Slayer axe man Kerry King dismissed DeVries interpritation in an interview with Hammer saying: "If we crossed 'God Hates Us All' and 'Reign In Blood' it's be fast, balls out chaos! [laughs] Well if you ask me that same question I'd have said 'God Hates Us All' and 'Seasons In The Abyss'. The new record has got some heavy stuff on it with guitars tuned to B, and Jeff's got one with another clean intro which we haven't done since... ****, '213'."

Drop B tuning??? Slayer's gone Mallcore!!!

Chimeiera are coming to my hometown soon. Not that I will see them or anything.

now i'm not really looking forward hearing the new slayer album...

He didn't say Drop B, B tuning, they tuned to B on GHUA aswell.

What is the difference?

I don't think it's detuning, mabye I'm wrong
In any case, At War With Satan or Welcome to Hell. I need new Venom...right now.
