Welcome to your metal journey young man. I’m still waiting on my Pantera - Domination (live in Moscow) reaction. I was worried that Slayer might be a bit much to kick it off with, but you did better than most. Once you’re a metal head, the world opens up so much, and the family is very welcoming. Let’s get it!
Absolutely! The Metal Community is the most welcoming and chill fandom around. You've got a ton of amazing musical experiences ahead of you, the music is ON YOUR SIDE and we all love to watch new listeners dive in. Welcome!!
No dude. This is hard af. Angel of death is a must by these guys. Its about the holocaust in germany and specifically the nazi doctor that experimented on jews. Very intense lyrics and driving musicianship. You HAVE TOO!!! hahaha
Absolutely recommend as well!...just keep in mind the line "To benefit the Aryan race" is NOT them supporting Nazis or white supremacy, just telling history.
Slayer is the definitive line for thrash. Always make me happy to see someone discover them. Well done bro. Remember, there is no God. There is only SLAYER 🤘
You're right. At the time this dropped, Slayer and Possessed we're the darkest and heaviest bands in metal. As an early Slayer fan, we were often regarded as the "devil worshippers" and whatnot due the moral panic of the mid 1980s. Slayer has since gone on to inspire many other bands who were darker, faster and heavier than even Slayer. They even provided inspiration for a new metal sub genre, Death Metal. If you dare to step into a darker realm, check out Rapture by Morbid Angel
I was in the mosh pit multiple times for this song! \m/ Go to a metal concert at least once. It's a whole different experience specially for older bands that did not have a good production quality on their albums.
It's ok to nod your head man.. it's just music.. same as a horror film... they are not evil or a satanic band they just play and sing about stuff that few bands won't touch.. one of the best Metal bands you could see live ..Kings of Thrash Metal been going for 38 years only just retied in 2019. Legends.
YES! Saw The Clash Of The Titans Tour in 1991 with Slayer, Anthrax, and Megadeth, Alice In Chains opened. Think I floated the pit for like two hours, my feet may have touched the floor once or twice....lol
Check their live version from Still Reigning live in 2004 year. There is a raining blood on the stage. And the entire album is 28 minutes of pure aggressive madness.
First time i heard slayer in the 80s I thought I was going to hell just for hearing it. Scared me so bad had to put it down for bout a year till I was ready
Slayer is part of the "Big Four" of Thrash Metal. Slayer, Metallica, Megadeth, and Anthrax are considered to be the fathers of this specific type of Metal. I would also add Testament and Overkill to the list of founders. It is my, personal, favorite genre of Metal. Enjoy \m/ \m/
Another mission accomplished by Slayer 🤘Don’t worry it’s all planned by the band. An interview to Tom about the lyrics of their music he said that is to mess with peoples heads 😂
I love this!!!! My heart has belonged to them since I was 13 and that was 35 yrs ago😳There’s Heavy Metal, Thrash Metal, Speed Metal, Death Metal (Deicide is amazing!) and all are worth checking out🥰🖤
Always look forward to your reactions, thank you 😊 I'd love to see your reaction to the Broken Bells "Holding on for Life", a fantastic & highly original song from an awesome black & white duo 🖤🤍
Love your reactions! After watching or listening to this song, please check out the version of Raining Blood by Body Count, you will like it, also for more Slayer, check out the video for Repentless
Angel of Death should be next. It's next level. Just remember, they are telling a story not glorifying anything. Similar to an author or writer doing a book/movie.
Angel of Death and Raining Blood are bookends. All in between are SOOOOOO MUCH BETTER!! Piece by Piece, Necrophobic, Altar of Sacrifice...Jesus Saves, Crimally insane, REBORN!!!
KeEP IT going mate with other songs of SLAYER , 'cause i don't lie to u bro, you drive me insane, with your reaction ,honest really true 'cause really scared.. Creets from bloody raining Greece. . . .Imagine what gonna happen with other songs like rad song war ensemble N' more... D E A T H . . . . .🤯
Slayers best song. If you want to hear something REAL heavy,I throw in 100 votes that you check out Cannibal Corpse "They Deserved to Die" Makes Slayer sound like Frank Sinatra.
What up Shon!! Please don’t forget maybe the greatest cover of all time.. Chris Cornell-Nothing Compares 2 U ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-IuUDRU9-HRk.htmlsi=RcqyX2sCmOek3x7a written by Prince and taken to #1 by Sinead O’Connor but IMO this version is the best! Peace
