Fucking Rock on Slayer :rock:
FUCK YEAH, my favorite band. They were so good live.
I have all of Slayer's albums. I don't listen to any specific song, but when they come on, it's pretty damn awesome.
I hope they tour again in America.
i have the Divine Intervention logo as a necklace
it's sick
Apparently they recently started working on a new album.
I like their music, though the lyrics are a bit fucked up, revolving around death and ain and shit. "Death Metal" :(
Raining Blood is such a fucking awesome song. I aspire to be as good as their drummer so that I can play it.
Angel of Death is a much more difficult drum song.
Altar of Sacrifice and Piece By Piece are my favourite Slayer songs, fucking kickass.
I personally love everything up to Seasons In Abyss and then nothing until Christ Illusion.
But I'm a huge slayer fan.

[QUOTE=Calasmere]I like their music, though the lyrics are a bit fucked up, revolving around death and ain and shit. "Death Metal" :([/QUOTE]
They aren't really death metal...
And it's a common misconception that that's the only subject in death metal.
Anyway,
I love Slayer. They make a lot of good points with their songs and actions, and they mock the media's view of them, which I find fucking hilarious.
Not to mention they're just fucking awesome.

What Guyblunder said. It's not called Death metal because of it's lyrics.
Hah, all that stock footage in Jihad. It creeps me out.
[b]Edit:[/b]
I vote we start a fund to give KFK some fucking metal hair.
Bald bastard.

God hates us all was released in 11th september 2001 might want to edit that, the one you credited to be from 2001 is probably the one from 2005.
The singer is catholic? :v:. I don't believe that.
[b]PIECE BY PIECE[/b]
[QUOTE=Patjo_sweden]The singer is catholic? :v:. I don't believe that.[/QUOTE]
Yes, but he's not you're everyday catholic, he belives in god but he also believe that god hates everyone.
[code]Auschwitz, the meaning of pain
The way that I want you to die
Slow death, immense decay
Showers that cleanse you of your life
Forced in
Like cattle
You run
Stripped of
Your lifes worth
Human mice, for the angel of death
Four hundred thousand more to die
Angel of death
Monarch to the kingdom of the dead
Sadistic, surgeon of demise
Sadist of the noblest blood
Destroying, without mercy
To benefit the aryan race
Surgery, with no anesthesia
Fell the knife pierce you intensely
Inferior, no use to mankind
Strapped down screaming out to die
Angel of death
Monarch to the kingdom of the dead
Infamous butcher,
Angel of death
Pumped with fluid, inside your brain
Pressure in your skull begins pushing through your eyes
Burning flesh, drips away
Test of heat burns your skin, your mind starts to boil
Frigid cold, cracks your limbs
How long can you last
In this frozen water burial?
Sewn together, joining heads
Just a matter of time
til you rip yourselves apart
Millions laid out in their
Crowded tombs
Sickening ways to achieve
The holocaust
Seas of blood, bury life
Smell your death as it burns
Deep inside of you
Abacinate, eyes that bleed
Praying for the end of
Your wide awake nightmare
Wings of pain, reach out for you
His face of death staring down,
Your blood running cold
Injecting cells, dying eyes
Feeding on the screams of
The mutants hes creating
Pathetic harmless victims
Left to die
Rancid angel of death
Flying free

I won't hold it against anyone if they thought they might have been Death Metal,but heed my warning; [b] THEY ARE THRASH METAL DAMNIT[/b]
Not my style of music, I respect the fact that they have mad talent though.
oh and, i've never seen more uglier men in a band, ever.

Though Slayer influenced dozens of Death and Black metal bands.

[quote=wikipedia]Death metal is an extreme subgenre of heavy metal. It typically employs [b]fast tempos, heavily distorted guitars[/b], deep growling vocals,[b] morbid lyrics, blast beat drumming, and complex song structures with multiple tempo changes[/b][/quote]
respect my opinion :3:
So, all Death metal has 'morbid' lyrics?
[QUOTE=Kamikaze]So, all Death metal has 'morbid' lyrics?[/QUOTE]
they really wouldn't be death metal if they didn't talk about death.
[QUOTE=TimeBomb]they really wouldn't be death metal if they didn't talk about death.[/QUOTE]
You know, Death, the band that pioneered death metal...
A lot of their songs weren't about death or anything morbid. They were more about flaws in society.
[QUOTE=TimeBomb]they really wouldn't be death metal if they didn't talk about death.[/QUOTE]
Actually it's called Death metal because of the band Death. A lot of magazines called it 'Deaths metal' and eventually Death metal caught on.
