I really like 213. The rest of Divine Intervention isn't that good though.

slayer bitch

i was really surprised at the negative feedback slayer got in the mustaine and king are a bunch of emo punks thread so i went on a little baby tit fit and posted a really stupid comment and got soooo neg repped! but yes it is true slayer are amazing, except kings solos ramble on a lot.....anyway....SLAYER!!!!!!

raining blood and angel of death are awesome

kerry king, jeff haneman and dave lombardo are great

^^^True indeed. I just watched their live DVD "Still Reigning" last night. I wondered why it was only $12.99, until I watched it. They play the entire Raining Blood album and about six other songs. All together totalled no more than 45min. It was a good show, but it just seemed really short...

[QUOTE=kolin666]his vocals werent that bad when a saw them last oct[/QUOTE]

His vocals were awful at Donington in June, I'm certain he lipsinked(sp.) because he couldn't even talk let alone sing and scream. I think Kerry had to say a few words at the end but I'm not sure. Hot weather and copias amounts of alcohol are not a good mixture.

Araya has been having loads of trouble with his throat and voice lately didnt it pack in completely at a show not so long ago?

^^ Yeah at a show in Germany about a 2 months ago I'm sure I read.

reign in blood and seasons in the abyss (great song)

[QUOTE=SLATANIC-666]Slayer are fvcking awesome. You wouldn't think it though looking at my username, subtitle or avatar :rolleyes:. Anyway, the new DVD still reigning is superb, Daves drumming is as good as ever, Toms vocals, despite a few bad reviews of recent times were pretty good too, Jeffs solos were excellent as always although he did have some problems towards the end of the show but I'm sorry to continue the torrent of King bashing but his solos just didn't take form of anything on Reign in Blood, they sounded more like stuff off Diabolus and GHUA.
To name a top 5 list of Slayer songs is impossible because you really are spoiled for choice but I have phases with Slayer where I'll really be into later stuff from Divine, Diabolus and GHUA but more often I'm into the older stuff. At the moment though i'm into one song in particular which is War Ensemble, probably because I was playing it on guitar the other day but I know that in a short space of time I'll be really into some other song, Chemical Warfare say.
That's what's great about Slayer, they've got that much great material it's very hard to lose interest.[/QUOTE]oh all the mx'ers, if i had to pick one ultimate slayer fan, it'd be you.

favorite riffs by slayer?

1. Raining Blood(of course)
2. Angel of death (all the fast parts)
3. South of Heaven (better live)
4. Silent Scream
5. End of Chemical Warfare
6. Hell Awaits (slayer's best song)

I love the riff after the solo on "Criminally Insane". Anyone know what im talking about?? so f*ckin heavy

^^^

if its the riff that im thinking about now. which i think it is then yes it kicks proverbial butt!

I love Araya's voice now.

[QUOTE=hex135]I love the riff after the solo on "Criminally Insane". Anyone know what im talking about?? so f*ckin heavy[/QUOTE]

**** right it is. \m/

raining blood is there best riff and i also like the intro to black magic



p.s 6 or 7 slayer riffs are all tabbed out in this months guitar world if ya need help with them :thumb:

I think Slayer is an awesome band, if not the best metal band of the 80s. My favorite songs by them are Raining Blood, Angel of Death, War Ensemble, and Cast Down.

top 6 slayer songs:

1. RAINING BLOOD
love the storm in the intro, amazing riff, could of done with a better solo though

2. ANGEL OF DEATH
i still remmeber the first time i heard the solo at the end i was stunned, and the lightning fast riff in the intro !

3.GHOSTS OF WAR
gotta love this song it rules

4.STAIN OF MIND
abosolute heaviness, love the lyrics and the riff, but the solo on it, like the solo in bloodine (thopguh not as bad) is ****ty, great chorus though

5.DEAD SKIN MASK
good riff and the intro gives it an eerie feel and it has a great chorus!

6.SOUTH OF HEAVEN
it first captured me with the "unforseen future nestled somewhere in time' bit at the start, its so effective when he goes BEFORE YOU SEE THE LIGHT - YOU MUST DIE!!!!!!

they have heaps of other great songs too, like bitter peace, hell awaits, spirit in black, seasons in the abyss, bloodline, spill the blood and more

Slayer ****ing rule. The intro to Hell Awaits is like my favorite song intro. That song just kicks so much ***.

wow, that's a tough one. don't hate me for not going old school, but the intro riff until the first verse of disciple is soooooooooooo heavy. that's my "guitar store" riff that turns heads. then again, i like the drop tunings, too.

[QUOTE=kris_axemaster]Yer i got war at the warfield, and the high scream at the start of angel of death is miserable and poor.....[/QUOTE]
i still like the slayer live shows but i have to agree

Slayer are amazing.

Thanks man :chug: I'm sure there are some users more 'die hard' than me,
I just do my best and try to set a good example that kids might follow, I think everyone should experience Slayer once in their lives, so kids go forth, buy as much Slayer as possible and convert the non-believers in your homes and schools :naughty: \m/

im surprised nobody (that ive seen on this thread) has said "darkness of christ" or more of "god send death". those are great.

[QUOTE=viper03]i still like the slayer live shows but i have to agree[/QUOTE]

When I saw them live, he did a perfect pitch for it, it sounded great.

[QUOTE=MetalNightBodomNight]slayer is alright i don't like them as much as i used to i would say their best work is spill the blood or south of heaven. i don't judge vocalist on live performances because singing live is hard to do, soundmen suck, and they can't use the added depth of multiple takes (mults).[/QUOTE]

...unless you are Ashlee Simpson.

Um...am I the only one who doesn't really care for Slayer? I love thrash, but I was just never able to get into this band...
