Love Dave, but it should be noted that he's the CURRENT drummer for those bands, both of which have had multiple great drummers. Add Misfits to that list, as well, who've had about a million drummers. Dead Cross is another great project.
@@BlackDeathThrash the reign in blood album is considered one of the pre-death metal or almost death metal albums of the 80's , still funny for you ignorant?
Lol you guys are funny, Slayer is the furthest thing from "hair metal." Just about every single person in a metal band in the 80s especially had long hair, so that alone is not what makes "hair metal."
@@BlackDeathThrash No it's ok if they don't know, they are reactors, they aren't supposed to know. At least they're checking out new music. Just thought it was funny.
"Hair metal" gets thrown at most popular 80s metal that isn't thrash, although it more accurately should be another term for the genre "glam metal." It's a much more commercial, melodic hard rock/metal that focused on image(thus the hair not only long but at a time sprayed big, plus makeup and all), lyrics focused on girls, parties, cars, living wild, generally more superficial subjects but for an energetic, fun, party vibe. Got big when MTV was big and took advantage of the video format.
Dave Lombardo was Slayer's drummer for a long while (he was one of the founding members of the band). One of his other projects was a band called Grip Inc. Check out "Endowment of Apathy" by them for more of Dave's insanely fast double bass drumming. For a classic hair metal song .... Hmmm. Maybe "Cherry Pie" by Warrant?
This album you have to listen to 3 times with headphones on. Once left side. Once right side. Once left and right together. Amazing album. Still my favorite. Just think guys. Slayer : Reign in Blood. Megadeth : Peace Sells. Anthrax : Among the Living. Metallica : Master of Puppets all came out about the same time. Angel of Death is the Greatest SLAYER song period. Enjoy guys.
I am almost 50 seen Slayer a hand full of times in the 90"s Philly. You can't say enough about the sound of the skins when Dave Lombardo is in that seat.
What a song to react to 🤘🏻 I have seen them live many times but on one occasion they closed the show with this song and blood literally starting raining on them when they were playing.
Other hair metal masters you need to check out is Ratt, Whitesnake, Skid Row, Def Leppard, Cinderella, FireHouse, etc. Too many songs to suggest that kick ass but I'm sure you'll love all of them.
My favorite concert ever. People were yelling, “Slayer!!!!!” It was so much fun. You get caught up in the vibe. So good. Everyone should watch Slayer live. If you haven’t..your loss
This is the momenr I've been waiting for. Lol. This is the reactor equivalent to graduation day. Congratulations boys, today you are men! Everything from here is just personal development. I'm so super proud of you guys!
From what I recall, hair metal was the label for bands who appeared to care more about their look than the music they made. They usually had big hair, make up and elaborate stage outfits. Thrash is the opposite, more about the raw, aggressive music than a specific look although they kinda do have a specific look, that's not the focus!
I was so lucky to see Slayer twice on their final tour and hearing Raining Blood live was amazing! As for the song itself, a song about raging war against Heaven and hearing that war through the guitars at the end of the song is just brutal! As for a suggestion I have, how about Spines from Terror Universal. They recently came out with a music video for it
7:05 Sounds familiar thanks to GTA Vice City! That game got me into metal back in ‘02 before RUclips. Before that, I was a hip-hop head. I had to beg my dad to buy me Reign in Blood and the first time I heard that album it scared the $h!t out of me hahaha
I've been a Slayer fan since way back, but this song still reminds me of GTA: Vice City. Getting into the Hunter (the army helicopter) with this playing, and going on the rampage, is one of my fondest gaming memories.
Some Hair Band Bangers: Def Leppard "Bringin On the Heartbreak," Scorpions "Still Loving You (official aufio studio version), Ratt "Round and Round," Cinderella "Nobody's Fool," Motley Crue "Home Sweet Home," Tesla "Song and Emotion," Tesla "Love Song," Kix "Don't Close Your Eyes," Quiet Riot "Mental Health," Twisted Sister "The Price," Twisted Sister "Burn In Hell," Twisted Sister "Captain Howdy." Whitesnake "Still of the Night," Whitesnake "Slow and Easy." For starters. Haha
I grew up on Slayer :) Slayer, Pantera, Sepultura that was the soundtrack of my youth :) Check out any of the following tracks 😎: Angel of Death War Ensemble Dead Skin Mask Expendable Youth Disciple (this might be my favorite song of theirs 😁) 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘 Great reaction! 😊🤣🤣
I remember concerts where everything was chill, the casual pit, wod, fight - but every body was mostly rocking there head. Then Raining blood starts, on first rif the whole fucking statium became a mostpit.
The funny thing is, as you go down the thrash rabbit hole, you do realize that they were kinda medium tempo compared to more obscure bands from that time and especially THE BANDS THAT CAME AFTERWARDS. Ain't saying Slayer isn't fast, but off the cherry pick popular tier - Sepultura and Kreator definetly were faster. And then you have the crazy newschool wave of 2010s thrash like Lost Society, Dust Bolt or Evile. ;)
Testament was basically the 5th band of "the big 4." You NNEEEEDD to check them out. Alex Skolnik is probably the best guitarist over all 5 bands. Their second album "The New Order" will blow yer freaking mind. I would start with the song Disciples of the Watch. I guarendamntee you will love it.
I love Testament and Alex is an amazing guitar player, who actually went to school and got a degree in music, I still think Dave Mustaine is the best guitarist of the big 4...but thats just my opinion
Frankly I always thought Testament was way better than Anthrax and deserved to be considered "Big 4" instead of them. But that's just one man's opinion.
The big four is the american way of making everything bigger and reinventing history like getting the enigma machine, (it was the Brits) Just have a look at the rolling stone like list of best music in whatever genre....98 % english oh and yes There is a world outside the usa/gb...... on metal punk Destruction, Kreator, Sodom, Gism, Deadhead, Pestilence, Negazione, Larm, etc.......
Man, if you just looked at them you would write them off as people who not jam metal but these dudes are so introspective and smart about music. They definitely love music and have such good commentary and interest in all forms of music. Respect.
Watch the live version much longer and you will love. I’ve toured with slayer and my friend Jon dette was there drummer for various tours. Watch angel of death
If you guys ever decide to do a full album reaction in the future, this is the album to do it with. Slayer’s Reign In Blood is a half hour of the finest thrash metal of all time.
This album was recorded in a matter of days. It was 46 or so minutes going in- they pumped it into 38 minutes from memory because Dave Lombardo is a beast on the kit.
Slayer were labelmates on DefJam with Run DMC and the Beastie Boys...Kerry King (lead guitarist for Slayer) did the guitar solo for "No Sleep Til Brooklyn" for the Beasties and was in the video...
It's too bad Slayer has called it a day. Hearing this banger live was one of the highlights of seeing them live. So happy I had that opportunity. Slayer are one of the founders of Thrash. Much respect 🤘🤘👏👏
We Will Fall Together or Would You Be Impressed by Streetlight Manifesto! They're one of the most unique and talented bands I've ever had the pleasure to see live. Not that many reaction channels have looked at their music and its a real shame.
Thrash was specifically a movement that was anti-hair metal. The hair metal bands were mostly out of LA, specifically Sunset Strip, and all big four thrash bands came out of the San Francisco Bay area, they were called at the time 'Bay area thrash'.
Slaaaaaayyyyyyeeeeeerrrrrrr! Saw them on this tour and it was raining bodies. Plus this album was produced by Rick Rubin. I remember at the time that they went in with 45 minutes of material, recorded it all and it was just under 30 minutes when they had finished. Mainly driven by the insane speed and accuracy of Dave Lombardo on the drums. Hair Metal was more makeup and glam. Slayer were one of the original thrash bands. First video was Dire Straits - Money for Nothing.
Hair metal is basically glam rock (bowie, the sweet, t-rex, etc) crossed with spinal tap! Old testament HM: twisted sister, new testament HM: steel panther. Enjoy 🤘🤘
drummer of this album IS David Lombardo he did most of the drumming on slayer's iconic albums including hell awaits south side of heaven seasons in the abyss and of cores Ranging blood and many more before Paul Bostaph Joined slayer
Slayer's attitude toward hair metal stems from them being the one of the few thrash bands to come out of LA, where most of the hair bands were coming from. They were surrounded hair and punk rock. They took the punk route.
Hell of a beginning to the morning! I can't believe you're using Slayer to transition into asking for glam metal 😂😁😁 Next Slayer - South of Heaven or Live Undead (my FAVORITE Slayer song!!!) Janes Addiction - 3 Days Kyuss - Gardenia & Demon Cleaner
All those VH1 behind the music documentaries on metal get it absolutely wrong. The only good documentary on metal is one called metal a head bangers journey. He breaks it down with diagrams and brackets plus he grew up with it. It's very very accurate. He has his own RUclips channel now.
Music Videos had existed since the 1950s but under very specific conditions. Most times, they were just performance clips from shows like the Ed Sullivan Show or the Carol Burnett Show. It wasn't until the 1960s where Top Of The Pops appeared which was like the MTV of the 60s and 70s. Again, though, these were just performance clips, though sometimes they would be lip synced for the public to promote the singles or albums. The Beatles were one of the first bands to make music videos outside of those TV Shows. They made videos for a handful of songs. However, these were considered Promotional Clips, not Music Videos. The difference is that the former was, as it says, a Promotion for the song or album it's featuring. A Music Video is a video that is actually intended as a related artform and was usually released alongside with the single. The first to do this was Queen with Bohemian Rhapsody. That song and it's video started a new trend where labels were requiring their clients to provide music videos for their singles and, in 1980, with the ironic debut featuring the song Video Killed The Radio Star covered by the Buggles, MTV was born. This was the sole reason for the shift in Pop culture. All the professional adult contemporary artists were phased out because no one wanted to look at them. Instead, the put up the pretty faces of Madonna, David Lee Roth, and Michael Jackson. Metal became big because of MTV as it was a perfect opportunity to show off the exciting theatrical live stadium feel of Metal concerts. What you were thinking of Michael Jackson for was probably one of two things: He was the first African American artist to receive primary viewing time on MTV in 1983 with his videos for Billie Jean, Beat It and Thriller. Before then, Black artists were given Midnight-Morning slots. He changed that and opened doors for other Black artists. The second thing is that he was the first to make a music video short film with Thriller. It was a 14-minute Horror mini-flick that featured multiple different scenes, a storyline, and only about 6-7 minutes of which was the actual song. It was the first music video that felt like a movie and he would become known for these kinds of videos all the way to his last album Invincible with the video for You Rock My World.
I donno if yous heard it or did a reaction to, but id love for you guys to do a reaction to slayers eyes of the insane !! Its an important topic and is a good song !! And if you see this and decide to do this song.. do the offical vid, its hits you evan harder !! Love the reacts, btw !! 👍👍🤟🤟
I' am a simple person, i see Slayer i click
It is hard to argue with this logic, I approve.
Aye!
Absolutely!!!!!
i approve
Its unforgivable to call Slayer hair metal.
I came here to say the same thing.
@@UnexplainedHoveringSpheroid Great minds think alike.
Death sentence in 7 states.
Absolutely. Don’t compare Slayer to Motley Crue, Ratt, Warrant... please!
I skipped ahead but now I'm glad I didn't hear that comparison. How dare they🤬
The drummer is Dave Lombardo, he's also the drummer for Mr. Bungle and Suicidal Tendencies to name a couple
Dave is a legend. He also played with John Zorn who is a musical genius.
@@beelzebob23 his playing on the Testament record 'the gathering' is his best for me.
Love Dave, but it should be noted that he's the CURRENT drummer for those bands, both of which have had multiple great drummers. Add Misfits to that list, as well, who've had about a million drummers. Dead Cross is another great project.
Slayer wrote the most evil sounding riffs of all time imo. They are the gold standard of riffs
Give "War ensemble" a spin - it's a beast of a track.
WAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRR
i agree
The song that got me into Slayer back when I was a wee lad.
Warrrrrrr
WUUUUUAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAARRRRR
"Killing Fields" by Slayer is a def must. "South of Heaven" also... Pantera was a hair metal band before Phil joined.
There's a mashup of this song with Rock Lobster. It's surprisingly good. "Raining blood! From a lobster in the sky!"
@@peterhineinlegen4672 that channel that does those mash ups has a ton of great combos.
Hell Awaits is another good one
Hell yeah! I think Killing Fields is their more underrated song!
Just wanna recommend that you guys pronounce the name right. It’s “Fucking Slayer”.
It's actually "fucking SLLAAAAYYEERRRRRRRRRRRR"
😂😂😂
check out Dead Skin Mask by Slayer- an homage to Ed Gein the original graveyeard ghoul
🤘
Whole Seasons album is beastly
Slayer- Expendable Youth is a hard ass song fam. It was gangster before gangster was gangster.
Gangster🤘😏🤘Rock!
@@mendyrckz76 🤘😈🤘
Kerry King is that you?
"What just happened?"
Slayer just rocked your world.
"Video Killed the Radio Star" was the first MTV music video.
It was by the band The Buggles and it premiered on August 1st. 1981
Sorry to post over you. It was also the 1millionth video as well
Mr. Hans Zimmer is the guy playing keyboard in the background. Fun bit of trivia.
Damn fellas, you started out this morning with a punch to the face on this one. SLAYER!!
Punch to the face and then a kick to the nuts with that "Slayer is Hair Metal" comment.
Slayer: Angel Of Death, Seasons in the abyss..
"I think they might be borderline hair metal."
😂😂😂😂😂 Oh y'all not ready.
'What just happened?'
Perfect line for someones first listen
Slayer- "War Ensemble" or "South of Heaven"
Slayer is borderline death metal. Ps: I love Smokey’s shirt.
funniest thing I heard all day
@@BlackDeathThrash how so? They were s huge influence on Death Metal.
@@BlackDeathThrash Slayer was a precursor to death and black metal in my opinion. You can hear it in things like Deicide and of course Venom
@@BlackDeathThrash the reign in blood album is considered one of the pre-death metal or almost death metal albums of the 80's , still funny for you ignorant?
@@felipegiraldo8100 I'm guessing he doesn't realize that death metal started in the 80s. Death sounds a lot like Slayer at times minus the vocals
Lol you guys are funny, Slayer is the furthest thing from "hair metal." Just about every single person in a metal band in the 80s especially had long hair, so that alone is not what makes "hair metal."
Ratt, Warrant, Motley Crue, those are hair metal bands, and bands of their ilk.
just shows how little they know about metal and talk out their ass most of the time
@@BlackDeathThrash they've never claimed to be experts. And why be an elitist for calling out someone for what they don't know?
@@BlackDeathThrash No it's ok if they don't know, they are reactors, they aren't supposed to know. At least they're checking out new music. Just thought it was funny.

@@Dr.ZoidbergPhD totally agree
I am almost 50 seen Slayer a hand full of times in the 90"s Philly. You can't say enough about the sound of the skins when Dave Lombardo is in that seat.
It's always fun to see people react to Raining Blood especially when their tempo quickly went to 0-1000
What a song to react to 🤘🏻
I have seen them live many times but on one occasion they closed the show with this song and blood literally starting raining on them when they were playing.
That’s flipping awesome
If ya'll want some hair metal, Dokken -"In My Dreams" or Motley Crue - "Live Wire" or "Too Young to Fall in Love" Straight bangers, all of them.
Other hair metal masters you need to check out is Ratt, Whitesnake, Skid Row, Def Leppard, Cinderella, FireHouse, etc. Too many songs to suggest that kick ass but I'm sure you'll love all of them.
My favorite concert ever. People were yelling, “Slayer!!!!!” It was so much fun. You get caught up in the vibe. So good. Everyone should watch Slayer live. If you haven’t..your loss

This is the momenr I've been waiting for. Lol. This is the reactor equivalent to graduation day. Congratulations boys, today you are men! Everything from here is just personal development. I'm so super proud of you guys!
"Raining Blood"!!! BODY COUNT
Yes bodycount with slayer!!
I would love to see them react to some Body Count.
From what I recall, hair metal was the label for bands who appeared to care more about their look than the music they made. They usually had big hair, make up and elaborate stage outfits.

@@BlackDeathThrash but they’ll be the first to tell you that they are still basically learning
Hair metal was just a later name for Glam metal. People called it glam in the '80s.
Masters at work and im NOT talking about Slayer. One of the best reaction videos ive seen!
I was so lucky to see Slayer twice on their final tour and hearing Raining Blood live was amazing!

I subscribed after I saw you guys commenting on the music too...liked your rap songs too!
Thanks alot my friend....glad to have you as a fellow Trash Talker
Welcome!
Dave Lombardo. Master of the blast beat. So happy he joined Mr Bungle!

Slayer "Angel of Death" is probably their most popular song.
raining blood is their most popular
I remember watching all those iconic thrash videos on MTVs Headbangers Ball in early 90s. That was something. Regards from Poland, guys👊
Hey guys, this may be an unpopular request, but if you're gonna check out some hair bands, I recommend Lay It Down by Ratt. Epic riffs!
I've been a Slayer fan since way back, but this song still reminds me of GTA: Vice City. Getting into the Hunter (the army helicopter) with this playing, and going on the rampage, is one of my fondest gaming memories.
This is the song from the episode of South Park called"Die hippie die." Where Cartman played this song to get rid of thousands of hippies. Must watch!
Best episode ever!
said it then saw this. enjouy your free point.
The first video ever on MTV was "Video Killed the Radio Star" by The Buggles.
Check out Ice T's cover of Raining Blood with his band, Body Count.

Disciple (this might be my favorite song of theirs 😁)
🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
Great reaction! 😊🤣🤣
the demon took the last sword, it's on the cover of the first album
Show No Mercy.
Hair metal songs are usually about girls, sex, drugs, money, and they wear fancy clothes, sometimes almost feminine and wears makeup
Awesome shirt Smokey!, Great reaction to one of my favourites too, I suggest Angel of Death next but up to you, Keep on rockin. \m/
I remember concerts where everything was chill, the casual pit, wod, fight - but every body was mostly rocking there head. Then Raining blood starts, on first rif the whole fucking statium became a mostpit.

You guys really need to check out "Payback" it's one of their most brutal songs.
Guys, for your own sake please react to "Killing Fields" or "War ensamble" they are definitely a must
We Will Fall Together or Would You Be Impressed by Streetlight Manifesto! They're one of the most unique and talented bands I've ever had the pleasure to see live. Not that many reaction channels have looked at their music and its a real shame.
I highly recommend Rob Scallon's - Sunday Uke Group series of videos .... Slayer on a ukulele is beyond description. 🔥
hahaa at 9:50 they both just look up and open their eyes wide at the same exact time. Neither of them expected that.
Tool is what trash talkers got me into and slayer is the band that took me into metal so a perfect combo is this video to me...
Public Enemy sampled a different song from this same album, Angel of Death, i think for the song Channel Zero?
Thrash was specifically a movement that was anti-hair metal. The hair metal bands were mostly out of LA, specifically Sunset Strip, and all big four thrash bands came out of the San Francisco Bay area, they were called at the time 'Bay area thrash'.
Anthrax is from NYC...
Remember this from South Park where they're killing the Hippie Jam Fest. Maybe that's where you know it from.

@@BlackDeathThrash they don't know tons about metal this why it's called RAPPERS react duh
"Disciple" was the Slayer song that turned me into a fan.
I was fortunate enough to see them live on their farewell tour.
This is the perfect example of a heavy metal song. It's perfect... Try Eyes of the Insane by Slayer. Great song and amazing video
Hell of a beginning to the morning! I can't believe you're using Slayer to transition into asking for glam metal 😂😁😁
Next Slayer - South of Heaven or Live Undead (my FAVORITE Slayer song!!!)
Janes Addiction - 3 Days
Kyuss - Gardenia & Demon Cleaner
I second the Janes Addiction recommendation.
....the very best in thrash metal.... Slayer Rules!!!
The Buggles "Video Killed the Radio Star" was the first track played on MTV.
Jackson was probably the first black musician on MTV, the first music video was Video Killed the Radio Star by the Buggles, ironically.
SLAYEEEEEER!!!!!!!! FUCKIN SLAYEEEEEER!!!!!!!! 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
I think MJ was the first Black artist on MTV (played on prime time)
Slayer- Angle of Death, Seasons in the Abyss, War Ensemble, Mandatory Suicide, South of Heaven are bangers and so many more
First video on MTV was “video killed the radio star”
All those VH1 behind the music documentaries on metal get it absolutely wrong. The only good documentary on metal is one called metal a head bangers journey. He breaks it down with diagrams and brackets plus he grew up with it. It's very very accurate. He has his own RUclips channel now.
Im just going to keep putting it out there but when you really want to blow your mind, Neurosis - Stones from the Sky
was a popular song also has been covered, multiple times, actually even by ice tea in his metal band called Body Count
The reason you think you may have heard this before is that you may have played GTA Vice City, it was in the rotation on V Rock

That song and it's video started a new trend where labels were requiring their clients to provide music videos for their singles and, in 1980, with the ironic debut featuring the song Video Killed The Radio Star covered by the Buggles, MTV was born. This was the sole reason for the shift in Pop culture. All the professional adult contemporary artists were phased out because no one wanted to look at them. Instead, the put up the pretty faces of Madonna, David Lee Roth, and Michael Jackson. Metal became big because of MTV as it was a perfect opportunity to show off the exciting theatrical live stadium feel of Metal concerts.
What you were thinking of Michael Jackson for was probably one of two things: He was the first African American artist to receive primary viewing time on MTV in 1983 with his videos for Billie Jean, Beat It and Thriller. Before then, Black artists were given Midnight-Morning slots. He changed that and opened doors for other Black artists. The second thing is that he was the first to make a music video short film with Thriller. It was a 14-minute Horror mini-flick that featured multiple different scenes, a storyline, and only about 6-7 minutes of which was the actual song. It was the first music video that felt like a movie and he would become known for these kinds of videos all the way to his last album Invincible with the video for You Rock My World.
First video was 'Video Killed The Radio Star'- THE BUGGLES on MTV
