Jeff Hanneman- one of my favorite guitarists of all time. Probably rocking out in heaven with Neil Peart and Glen Campbell as we speak. There has to be a reason all those guys were taken from us too early and I like to think it is because the Lord needed help with a sound track for the apocalypse.
Dave Lombardo is a fantastic drummer, but I must say that the way he added extra kicks after 1:12, it really messed up the sound of the riff leading into the second verse. I think he dazzled up the sing unnecessarily, in my opinion. Dave is really something else on those drums, though.
@@waltermoldren4991 each to their own! I just always felt that the ride is the thinnest and smallest sound you can get on the drums and that the riff deserved balls to the wall half time behind it. Different types of energy behind both types of beat. Interesting to hear it in different styles!
This song is absolutely incredible. It should be forbidden to die without having enjoyed it live! During the last part the crowd always gets crazy; and suddently everybody screams ''Blood is cheap, it's everywhere!!!''
I remember there's some 80s metal doc where the interviewer asks Tom Araya how he feels when people say he sings like a pig, he laughs and says something like "I thought it was a stuck pig.". The older I get and the more I revisit Slayer, the more I think his voice is so perfect for this music. Like you say, spot on.
The whole South of Heaven record was brutally perfect. After it came out, that tape didn't leave my car stereo for 2 months.Great upload of a killer performance.
I saw these guys open for Judas Priest at the San Diego sports arena when this album first came out. It was the first time I saw an actual metal band at an arena show. When slayer finished there were no chairs left on the floor! Epic Performance
timmyboy1970 hey thanks bro. Wow, u must be a godamn genius. Correcting grammar in the comments section of a Slayer video! I bet u got your ass kicked at school.
My first introduction to metal was through Metallica, my uncle is a die hard fan. Later sometimes in my metal journey I found Slayer and I think they clearly stand out of all the other so called “Metal” bands, I’m not demeaning anyone but those bands sacrificed their originality and deviated from the core metal architecture. Slayer, from the very beginning kept up the spirit quite well. Hats Off Slayer, I love and respect you guys
They look rather menacing performing together don't they? This is the "Big Four" The original Slayer lineup, this is benchmark mark Metal at it's finest 🙌🏾🤘🏾👍🏾🔥
An anthem for heavy metal if there ever was one. A mix of raw power and aggression with clever changes in time sings and vocal intensity. Great guitar solos and drumming that could put death metal veterans to shame.
he could make a lot more of an effort and really come up with some good own solos instead of this generic shredding. It's always the same. He shreds totally random and ends with a pinch harmonic in 80% of everything he plays. I enjoyed Jeffs improvs but with Gary I just wait for his leads to be over already. Gary is extremely talented, but his lead work with Slayer neither does justice to his own skills nor to the songs he plays.
be that as it may. I have reshaped a couple of Slayer solos to fit into the major scales myself and still resemble the originals. It's not that hard. However Gary just seems to shy away from every effort he could make to play anything useful there.
Lombardo' fill at 2:53 is impossible on the album. I always listen for it on live recordings. I don't think he can pull it off live. It's a fucking killer fill. What a good drummer he was.

When others mention the 'Big Four', they're talking about 4 different bands. For me, the 'Big Four' are these gentlemen right here.
The big 4 are Dave lombardo arms and legs when he plays🤣
@@panzeri209 lmao
Amen!
Slayer is number one metal group of all time right behind is pantera
👏😐 said right! 👍
Hanneman's constant ramped up solo at the end is awesome.
Great detail. Adds a lot to the song.
The real Slayer
good ol Tom messing the lyrics up. Classic SLAYER show!!!!! ROCK ON!!!!
Damn this song sounds better live than on the album. Brutal!! 🤘
No shit lol
Now I do have to say that the album version is a killer. His voice is amazing
Way the fuck heavier
He messed up the lyrics to the second verse though. That’s the only knock I have against this version.
Everything from Slayer sounds better than in studio !
We miss u jeff rip..
Tanju Çolak RIP JH....
Yes, May he rot in hell like all of us 🤘🤘😈
Only Iommi has written more ominous riffs than Hanneman.

Sounds like the most legitimate claim to the reason out of the ones I've heard.
Tom's bass line can summon a thousand dragons hahaha
Or mortally challenged demons
Tom sounds better to me here than on the record. That's insane..
Also like the way Lombardo mixes it up.

Well that is from different tastes, cause i love how he adds more kicks
Tom is a pro. Absolute boss!
@@nckhedCuando el batería de W. A. S. P. iba como un cohete 🚀 la de Slayer ¿iba como una tortuga 🐢?
One of my favorite songs. Don't know the groove, drum, lyrics, riffs, solos are perfect.
👍🔥
Reminds me back in the day when I was in the Air Force overseas in the Philippines 1985-1989 good times and lots of metal
That was definitely a good time and today’s military will never believe or understand Disney land for adults 🎉🍺💃🏾👯🥃
June 1st,2024 & Slayer is still an amazing band. SLAYER is the father of this type of sound .

2:21-2:29 One of the heaviest riffs ever with that drum beat behind it. Wish this part was played more often!
this riff good too ruclips.net/video/YBbD75tOwfk/видео.html
literally so much better

Cut that to half time! Grooves!🤘👊
Dude! Have to agree on that! Good ear!😬👌
Wow! This is like one of my favorite live version of this song. RIP Jeff Hanneman!!
Hanneman, Araya, Lombardo & King, the big four of thrash metal.
Chills running down my spine. F’n Slayer!!
This song is absolutely incredible. It should be forbidden to die without having enjoyed it live! During the last part the crowd always gets crazy; and suddently everybody screams ''Blood is cheap, it's everywhere!!!''
My all time favourite Slayer song !
IMHO, the best Slayer song
You know, when I'm 70, and I'm listening to this, my nephew's and nieces will think I'm crazy 🙃
Mix is perfect!
this is the best I've ever heard this band. RIP the original band.
Best Slayer lineup ever!!
This is original. This is Slayer 💙👍🏻✌🏻
Lombardo has put god work in to this here. His syncopation and chops are on point.... despite KFKs disapproval.
Lombardo was the best part of slayer
I wanna hear slayer and priest do a song together live, how about dissident aggressor
Dave fucking Lombardo - there can be only one! Same with Jeff.
👍🔥
damn Slayer is killing it in this performance😝🎸🤘
The outstanding guitar riffs are like lightnings striking in my veins. I FEEL your music! Such talented musicians!
One of my all time favorite Slayer tunes.. Actually the whole CD is awesome, seen them live at the Aragon 1st year this was released...
toms voice was spot on
Davo george he sounds awesome here
Davo george
He fucked up the lyrics though. But you are right, he is on it.

So that means the chairs were floating

god i feel Tom's pain not being able to headbang due to multiple neck surgerys from excessive headbanging throughout the years
The last bang
I thought it was due to a rear-end collision with semi truck.
Music of my youth
R.I.F.P JEFF!!!! True SLAYER LEGEND
Man, jeff hanneman was a fucking cool figure on the stage! Such presence!
I dont think in suicide. Never. Ever. But i love this music
If it helps, it's not about literal suicide, it's about war.
I listen to Lustmord but I don't do lust-murder. A name is just a name.
They look rather menacing performing together don't they? This is the "Big Four" The original Slayer lineup, this is benchmark mark Metal at it's finest 🙌🏾🤘🏾👍🏾🔥
Jeff's outra was pure east bay ray. Legendary. ❤
Miss the original lineup 🤘🤘😈😈😈
Such a great performance lml
One of the greatest riffs ever! JH RIP
So F'N blessed to have seen Slayer about 15 times
There's a difference between singing about something versus advocating something. And these guys are experts at both. I love them.
Fvckin SLAYER live is something else i will tell ya, they are fvcking LEGENDARY!!!!!!
The Big Four- Araya, King, Lombardo, Hanneman
Tom's voice still gives me the creeps to this day, and I've been listening to this band since 1992. Fucking Slayer!!! \o/
And it's with Dave Lombardo? OMG how cool, and the sound quality is sooo awesome!
Toughest line up of musicians ever and will never be equally.
Zeppelin and aerosmith in the 70's.
Sodom
Not sure how to top SLAYER as the most in your face band!!! 🤘😎🤘
MOST EXCELLENT!
god this sounds great
R.I.P Jeff
Happy Birthday, Jeff! We fucking miss you!
Amazing.
THIS IS TRUE PURE SLAYER
My All Time Favorite Tune From Slayer \m/ \m/ ROCK ON!!!!!!!
This is so violent i love it good job slayer
Wow you can actually hear the bass. Rip Jeff.
Slayer is the BEST... R.I.P Jeff....
Herman Rico!!! I miss you!!!
Certified Gold!!!!!!
10 out of 10 I believe thats all the original band members. What a performance
You’re correct!
An anthem for heavy metal if there ever was one. A mix of raw power and aggression with clever changes in time sings and vocal intensity. Great guitar solos and drumming that could put death metal veterans to shame.
Mr.Dave Lombardo. .. MASTER TECHNICIAN!
Miss Hanneman...R.I.P And Lombardo
Band was never the same
GRACIAS SLAYER!!!
Thank you for your service. 🤘🎖
Slayer is Araya/Hanneman/King/Lombardo. Anything else is a cover band.
Well lad, Hanneman is in the underworld
except for Gary Holt always playing the same kind of random leads in every song, gets kind of annoying after time
he could make a lot more of an effort and really come up with some good own solos instead of this generic shredding. It's always the same. He shreds totally random and ends with a pinch harmonic in 80% of everything he plays. I enjoyed Jeffs improvs but with Gary I just wait for his leads to be over already.

LOL
... just shows how completely clueless you really are
You can actually hear Toms bass, this is great
GOD i love them.
Slayer eterno!!!
El verdadero Slayer...gran tema.
What else can I say but FUCKING SLAAAAYEEEER!
Dave most have thought that the original drum track was a bit boring for him when they recorded this :D
All God's gifts. Beautiful music at Volume 10.
Araya has a great heart a spiritual poet tonight i go to war♟🗡♻⚜⚜⚜☢☣☣☣
Building The Ultimate Playlists. All Hail!
Jeff hanneman literally has a SS guitar
The_OGHD 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
This is what our children volunteer for.
Lombardo' fill at 2:53 is impossible on the album.
I always listen for it on live recordings.
I don't think he can pull it off live.
It's a fucking killer fill.
What a good drummer he was.
Mark Bryant he still is..
He can still do it but he likes to improvise his fills
Insanely good drummer. Lombardo is fucking awesome as a drummer
This is my favorite Slayer tune.
Mine too
Офигенская тема, с офигенского альбома.
nice that they turned up the bass guitar for this one
Most kickass version of this song on the Tube.......................🤘🤘🤘
The big four right here
Tom looking like the baphomet him self 0:23
Slayer was sent by god
The original slayer
When the sound engineer forgot second bass drum .... .... and i can see " Mix is perfect!" in comments lol
They fuckin killed it...like it was there last time they were ever gonna see each other again.
First time I've ever heard the words " God doesn't hate." In interview with slayer "head bangers journey"
BEST LINE UP❤
Slayer é Slayer.......e fim de papo!!!!!!!!!!

RIP JEFF😢❤
That sounded fucking sick man!!
