[QUOTE=Butcher]Raining Blood isn't really that hard for me. Just the part that goes:

E|0-5-3-2-0-6-4-3-0 < you know that part. I can do it, but I just have a hard time keeping it on time. As for the solo, all one has to do is do crazy stuff with the whammy bar and hit random notes.[/QUOTE]



Well, I've decided that my break from metal is over and I've been working on War Ensemble. That second solo is so sick!!!

The song itself is pretty easy, I've just gotta get the right rhythm to the intro down right. I can do it but not with pm. I've gotta work on that.

I think that with the exception of the solo, I've got Dead Skin Mask down as well.


BTW, Has anyone been able to tab out the intro solo on the remix of Criminally Insane? Every tabsite I go to does not have that intro solo, just the original version of CI.

What is that song where they are like SATAN!!! SATAN!!! ahh

[QUOTE=Cobshred666]What is that song where they are like SATAN!!! SATAN!!! ahh[/QUOTE]


I think that was Hell Awaits.


That has to be the sickest song that they've ever done. Never have I heard a song that actually sounded like the intro music to hell!!!:evil:

I don't think they were saying satan though. I think they were saying, "Sing it."

Perhaps you're thinking of Altar of Sacrifice or Jesus Saves (my sec. fav. Slayer song) Oh well I guess I could be wrong. Most of their songs has something to do with Satan so I guess it could be anyone of them.

what is the appeal of slayer...they seem very fake in their image and their music is very unappealing...no melody whatsoever...the solos, etc. are very good though...but the lyrics....well....not so good

Ok. You're new here so I won't yell at you. I'll just give you a heads up for the future. If you don't like a band, then don't go into their official site and start bashing them. This is a bannable offense. I'm not out to try to get anyone banned but this happens to be my fav. band and while they seem fake to you, they are very much metal to me. This constitutes a difference of opinion and should not be pressed any further.


Thank you and have a nice day. :)

You don't have to have the skills of Steve Vai or Yngwie Malmsteen to be an awesome guitarist or musician for that matter. All you've gotta do is play what you think constitutes as good music and never miss a gig or rehearsal.

Slayer has done all of the above and their music actually sounds cool.

Well many bands have I guess you could say "fake" lyrics. Tom has openly admitted that their Satanic lyrics in the past were all just a gimmick because back in the 80's Satan and stuff was taboo, and they knew if they sang about that stuff, they'd get attention. It worked. Slayer are probably the biggest thrash metal band ever. And they set out to be the most bad[SIZE="2"]a[/SIZE]ss, violent, fastest band ever. Which is why the didn't feel the need for melodies, pretty songs, smooth solos, or slow songs. The only song I can think of with some kind of melody.. is the chorus of their song [I]Bloodline[/I].

Nowadays there only image to fulfill is being the best Thrash band. Which they still are.

[QUOTE=Cobshred666]Yesssssss its Alter Of Sacrifice, man i love blasting metal in cars its orgsmic especially slayer SATANN!!! hahaha[/QUOTE]

Yeah the lyrics to Alter of Sacrifice go.. [I]Praise Hell, Satan.[/I] That's the only song on RIB I actually can admit I do not like. I don't know why, it just doesn't float my boat.

[QUOTE=lightningmetal666]

I don't think they were saying satan though. I think they were saying, "Sing it."[/QUOTE]
At the beginning of [I]Hell Awaits[/I]... "Join Us" is being said backwards.

Steve is cool, but I just don't dig a whole lot of neoclassical shred. Metal is about breaking rules and classical is full of them.

Its not really ABOUT breaking rules in my opinion but metal does and it sounds amazing so im good with it :thumb:

Lemme guess, an attempt at subliminal messages?

[QUOTE=lightningmetal666]Lemme guess, an attempt at subliminal messages?[/QUOTE]
Possibly. But it probably sounds really creepy when played backwards on a record player, which is probably why they put it on there, knowing people would spin the record backwards.

What I don't get is the "Welcome Back!" part of the song.

What I love most about the song is where they slow down Tom's voice at the end of the first verse. That sounds so demonic and creepy. Very sick indeed.


BTW

< here's what I look like. I'm no george clooney, but I've got a decent mug.

Yeah I the way his voice is deepened as well. But when they perform it live on War at the Warfield, it doesn't sound that great, because it' just him shouting it.

I saw your picture in the MX R&M Map thread. You're quite different than what I pictured, I don't know why, but I pictured you as some scrawny guy with short spiked hair. But you look like a pretty decent sized man.

I've only spiked my hair once, twice if you count the gay tri-hawk I once had.

I did that while I was trying to hang out with punks. Never will I do anything that stupid again.

Trust me, there's no scrawny to me at all. I don't like telling my weight but here it goes:

I weigh 295. There, you beat it out of me. I weigh a lot. Apparently my love for fast food is going to send me to an early grave. Cool.:lol:

tri-hawk eh? pics?
