slayer at their worst

I honestly can't say I've ever been a huge Slayer fan, and this certainly doesn't change my mind.

Dear god, that was awful.

Siczine.com - 6-5-2007 at 09:39 PM

Yeah it was.

Jason the Magnificent - 6-5-2007 at 10:12 PM

Rediculous poseur band grasping at straws for relevance in todays market.

Discipline - 6-5-2007 at 10:16 PM

I fucking love Slayer, but holy shit that was bad.

Six66Mike - 6-5-2007 at 10:27 PM

Hahaha I bet the studio version on the album sounds much better, Tom was straining on vocals like they just finished 5 world tours in a row lol.

Undisputed Attitude is still my favourite Slayer album & most of the tracks are covers. I wanna hear the recorded version of this

tireironsaint - 6-5-2007 at 10:37 PM

I really don't see that as any worse than usual for them. Absolutely one of the worst bands ever. Right up there with Led Zepplin and Pink Floyd for mind numbingly boring bullshit. There's not a single thing I can understand about the so called appeal of that band. Their covers of good songs are on par with that album of covers that Ian Stuart released.

Wow, a lot of Slayer hatred on here....

SHAME!

Actually, I am a huge fan of the band, but if they broke up tomorrow, I'd be ok with it.
They made their mark for LIFE and (almost) never sold out. I say "almost" because of the abomination known as "Stain of Mind" aka THE WORST SLAYER SONG EVER.

that sucked. It was corney

CR83 - 6-6-2007 at 11:25 AM

Terrible. Seriously, why the shin guards?

They're the biggest sell outs in all of metal outside of Metallica. While they were amazing musically in their prime the large part of slayers impact and legacy was the extreme imagery and lyrics.

Lyrics that Tom Arraya dismisses as an act to shock..."god doesn't hate anybody, it was just a cool title" I don't care if someone believes in god or doesn't believe in god but your lyrics are your word and to quote the mighty Phil leotardo...

"It either means somthing or it doesn't mean anything"

Their legacy is forever tarnished to me.

Six66Mike - 6-6-2007 at 03:29 PM

Kerry is the prime lyric & music writer, I'm sure if you asked him he'd say he believes & it comes from the heart. Tom has found god recently lol.

Jason the Magnificent - 6-6-2007 at 03:44 PM

Not really...maybe in the past couple years (I havent looked at a slayer lyric sheet in 15 years probably)...looking at the old lyrics they each wrote their share, Araya, King and Hanneman.

MikeFromInhuman - 6-6-2007 at 03:47 PM

Jason, I see your point.
Makes me look at them much differently.

It is sad to read Tom say stuff like that, especially since Slayer continues to write lyrics in the same style. I'm glad Kerry is a man of his word, so to speak.

All of the following bands "re-neged" on Satan and were never the same if you ask me:

- Slayer
- Candiria (they were amazing when they sang about Satan, before the rap-crap)
- Morbid Angel ( after David Vincent left, do did Satan and do did good lyrics and songs)

Six66Mike - 6-6-2007 at 04:49 PM

I'm gonna listen to Seasons In The Abyss, South of Heaven & Hell Awaits on the ride to work this morning to celebrate a wicked band

Jason the Magnificent - 6-6-2007 at 05:02 PM

Hell Aaaaaawaaaaiiiiiiiits

DaveMoral - 6-6-2007 at 05:28 PM

Damn, that sucks.

JawnDiablo - 6-6-2007 at 08:54 PM

Slayer is the shit not shit.
Live Undead is the best phony live album ever

tireironsaint - 6-6-2007 at 10:17 PM

Sellouts or not, fake satanists or not, at no point in their career have they done a single thing I will voluntarily subject myself to. This band is EXACTLY what I'm talking about when I say I fucking HATE metal. A good friend of mine once offered to buy me a ticket to their show, drive me to and from the show, and give me 20 bucks and I refused to go. You literally cannot pay me to see this horrible fucking band.

For best fake live album I've got to go with "The Origin of the Feces" by Type O Negative.
