so, any fans aroud here? :)
i only know their stuff from 1994 (when i saw them on their devine intervention tour) on, so i was wondering how does their earlier music sound compared to newer? worth checking out?

i'd say "reign in blood" is one of the best metal albums ever.
ever.

they made their quality albums during 1983 and 1988. reign in blood, hell awaits, south of heaven, live undead and show no mercy are the classics. it's speed metal with satanic lyrics expressing the male ecstasy of bloodthirst, brutality and hunting.

also check "Seansons in the Abyss", earliest albums show how they had developed their musician skills
my favorites are Seasons in the abys, Reign in blood and Divine Intervention

Reign In Blood is what you want. Bands have been faster and banged harder since but no one has ever come close to the elemental black hate of that album.
A+++ 10/10 HAIL SATAN

I saw them with hatebreed on Holloween. that was a great show.
They have this album where they covered punk songs that is good. Alot of their material is good

don't forget to check out Seasons In The Abyss!
hey, btw: you know that Dave Lombardo from Fantomas used to be Slayer drummer, don't you? was it the main reason you decided to check out Slayer stuff? just curious :)

i follow slayer since i saw them live in 1994, although i think lombardo wasn't in the band at that time anymore..i prefer fantomas a great deal, but i was watching some old videos and came across slayer after a while again, so it came to my attention that i don't know any of their pre - devine intervention stuff :)

i used to listen to Slayer when i was going through a 'thrash-metal phase'. frankly, after hearing Divine Intervention i thought this album was pretty weak... so yeah, i agree with those who said their earlier stuff is way better.
also, i have to say that though people are bashing Metallica alot (and with reason), their 'And Justice For All' is one of the best metal albums ever. :P

no matter how much i'd enjoy metallica (which i luckly don't hihi), even if they made the best album ever..i still wouldn't stand them..they must be the biggest jerks in the music industry..

metallica fucking sucks and always has. now even more than ever.
tolstoyed - have you seen the fantomas interview segment where dave is talking about how slayer ripped off one of metallica's songs? it's really funny.

you're not wrong. but as long as we're talking about music, that album is definitely worth checking out - even if out of curiosity. :)

perhaps, im sure i've heard it before, i think i might have one of their albums somewhere..i won't look :)
r40f, i don't think i read that interview..i only read a couple and both from the gig they played here last year..i'll look for it!
and another not topic related question - is that grohl's probot thing any good?

it is a mixed bag, i like a handful of tracks... a few are a bit grating , download a few first maybe.. the track with lenny was pretty good.

that fantomas interview, as i totally neglected to mention, is a video from a tv program. not sure what country it is from... i think i still have it. i'll check.
probot i think was a "success" in terms of grohl accomplishing what he set out to do with it. the songs are strong homages. i don't like it at all, though. then again, i don't like slayer or most heavy metal bands people like in general, so i'm not the best to judge.

any slayer fan will do fine to just stick to the first few 'american records' albums. the rick rubin produced stuff.
reign in blood, seasons in the abyss, south of heaven... undisputed attitude is a good collection of covers.
i don't like the newer albums as much, though they still kick ass compared to most main stream metal out there.

ah, right, yes, sorry :) i don't really know any metal bands..at least not contemporary..i like slayer because they're sort of more heavy rock than metal, but i don't really know what metal is so..
