Yeah…. He slayed that part. The most slayer thing he could have done. Well I suppose he could have screamed die a few times in between the deaths too 😂😂 but beyond that. Lol I like how dude has like one finger on his left hand and plays lefty, but his guitar still looks strung right handed. That is like super weird slayer.
Dude, that Tom Araya scream…chills bro! You are an amazing musician. This is so f*cking sick! You got that legendary KFK JCM 800 tone dialed in perfectly!
Yeah bro, that scream!! Chills for real...and the guitar and lyrics. I can't watch this guy cuz I miss Slayer too much. But I may watch a couple more to get those chills again.
Absolutely incredible!! My RUclips was on auto play, didn't know it was you and I had to look over at my phone and thought, "Did Slayer seriously make a cover of this song?!" Great job👍🏼
ad libbing "death" at random intervals got me in stitches lmao. excellent work as always you always look like you're having more fun than usual with the slayer vids
It's sure that being one Hanneman short kinda hinders them... No hate towards his replacement (Gary Holt I believe), but Hanneman was a major part of Slayer's sound...
the biggest complement I can give you is that you don't even notice that the lyrics are from 'LIVIN' ON A PRAYER' it actually sounds like a Slayer song 😂 Love it great work!🔥
Man, I said this on the "Beat It" video, too, but holy shit, man. Your Araya vocals are insanely spot on, man. If I didn't know it wasn't them, I'd be like, "When did Slayer start covering 80s pop songs?" I kinda doubt Tom himself would realize it's not him, he'd just think he did the vox himself, and forgot about it, lol.
yeah I heard "beat it" on a RUclips autoplay - I wasn't looking at the screen and I thought "hey this sounds just like early-to-mid-90's era Slayer but I don't know the song" When I finally recognized what it was I thought the exact same thing - did they do *another* cover album around the time of Undisputed Attitude for fun but didn't master it or release it for fear of backlash?
Vocals are so similar to Tom Araya's! And everything else is spot on! Excellent cover! What is funny is that "Livin on a prayer" sounds like a title of a slayer song as well. Your covers are always really impressive, keep up the great work!
Man, do more of this stuff. We been orphan of Slayer for 5 years already, it's much satisfying to listen to this. It even FEELS like something new from them..
Don't be silly. Their songs have tons of key changes: from speed-picked chromatic noise in E flat to speed-picked chromatic noise in E, then in G, then back to E flat. Not picking on Slayer, because I love speed-picked chromatic noise. It's the best.
Someone said on the MJ video that he didn't say "death" enough times, so here we go - enough "deaths" to make it full blown Slayer song. Brilliant work, mate, keep them coming :)
holy shit, I did not see that coming. there is so much power, energy and violence in your song. an absolute masterpiece of a thrash metal song :D we need MORE!
Holy crap. This is the best thing I stumbled on to today. That's absolutely amazing. It actually sounds like Slayer, and your voice even sounds like Tom Araya lol. I can't believe you can play all those instruments so well.
Not only is he amazingly talented and able to pull off the entire "signature sound" but he does so with a sense of humor that I'm certain is not shared by those inspiring him. Kudos!
I really wonder what Slayer would think of this series of "If Slayer Wrote _____" songs? Really, this guy is great at imitating Slayer, but it's the little touches of including little things like that which Slayer's never done themselves that really help to put icing on the cake, and I can't help wondering what might have been, had Slayer tried adding some of these tricks to their repertoire over the years....
WTF?!?!?!! it sounds amazing !! BADASS !!! That is a definition of a cover, it's not about playing the same stuff but just heavy/heavier. The guys from slayer should know about this.. and bon jovi.. why not?!
Seriously dude, if I wasn't watching the videos of you playing and singing, I would think these covers had been done by Araya and crew themselves. Exceptionally well done.
I *wasn't* watching and only had sound to go by and I DID think it was a legit previously unreleased Slayer track from long ago - only because this sounds almost exactly like his voice mid-90's - now that he is much older you can kind of hear the slight difference because of his age and he would have no real reason to conceal that if this were (hypothetically) performed by Slayer today.
Mad bro a few have tried this sort of mashup style but you're the best mate by miles, you capture the bands unique sound and if i was just to listen id swear that was Tommy, Jeff and Kerry thrashing out :)
I can't decide which part you emulated best because it's all spot on. I think I'm most impressed with your emulation of Tom. More of all of this please.
My picking hand is "normal" and I can barely play that fast, God dam! Hats off to you friend. Don't let your challenges and "limitations" pull you down. Assuming you really did play the guitar part, I honestly hope you really did because that is killer and inspirational ... you never know these days with ze internet.
Look at your views! You need to do many more Slayer covers like this, and then put out their best album since Seasons in the Abyss. Awesome playing man, and especially awesome Tom Araya imitation. Im a huge Slayer fan, have heard Tom live about a dozen times. I don't think anyone on RUclips imitates him as good as you do.
Please make a full album w/ that striking Slayer sound that all of your songs are viciously blessed with. I will instantly buy one (or two, one for my wife who's into hair bands, haha!!) from you.
I saw some can't remember the name band play at some lost to time & now nameless to me club in Los Angeles, back in the mid 90's, and their entire set sounded like SLAYER. I remember part of a line from one of their songs & it went thusly... "Because we love SLAYER & so-should-you". The club was in a pretty poor area of L.A. but man, was it fun as Hell. Thank you.

This guy could literally make the next Slayer album by himself. In fact, he needs to.
yes, yes he does!
Cheeky 😂
Yes, Please. I definitely going to buy it.
It's so legit! 😂😂
Yes 😂
Your Slayer sound is so fucking on point that even Slayer wouldn't be able to tell the difference.
Haha thanks so much!
Even the video editing matches their style
Tom Araya is like, "Huh, I don't remember recording this." lmao
I am honestly not a Slayer fan other than Reign....but you've got this sound nailed down.
@merlin704 your point is so on point
Livin’ on a slayer
Slayer on a prayer
Slayin’ on a slayer
Livin' Jon A Slayer.
You require more likes.
nice!
This is not only extremely accurate as a parody, it's also a great old school thrash song on its own.
Right on. Best slayer trick they never wrote
Yes, 100%
@@gadjoswing1970 nah . body count becomes slayer
Tom Araya scream was SPOT ON!
If Tom Araya sees this, he will probably be laughing his ass off!!
Great work!!
This is genius. I love how he just shouts 'death!" every now and again
That’s very Slayer
Yeah…. He slayed that part. The most slayer thing he could have done. Well I suppose he could have screamed die a few times in between the deaths too 😂😂 but beyond that.

Death is what you need to live on a prayer.
If someone didn't know that this was a song by Bon Jovi, it could totally pass as a Slayer song. Freaking love it.
very similar styles when someone play Bon Jovi or Slayer it's hard for me to tell the Difference. Is this Bon Jovi OR Slayer?
I TOTALLY AGREE!!!!!!
@@MetalHeart8787 OH yea..identical like Oil and Water...Yes.. love your sarcasm 🙄😂
@@MetalHeart8787 yeah they’re basically the same band
Totally agree,but honestly I’m not sure about the lyrics 🤷🏻♂️ I don’t see/hear Araya whining about “love conquers all” 🙃
That Angel of Death scream at the beginning is so accurate, you nailed it. This screams 80's Slayer. Awesome job!
vocals and production scream 00's-10's Slayer
Hell yeah!
That scream made me spit out about 8 bucks worth of beer.
That was my exact thought when I heard it
@@masonhebb402bro 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
He even did the key change at the end, lol!
The amount of talent coming out of this dude is insane!
AND HE'S MISSING FINGERS!! A ROCK GOD!!!!
Apart from his acting ability, that is zero. Has he tried watching his own videos?
This man was able to make it look like Slayer played a love song and made it sound fucking brutal...Props to you man 🤘
Hahah thanks so much!
On point, this is my Hotel California :D
no he didnt.
As a love song, "Dead Skin Mask" doesn't hit all the benchmarks.
@@roddcayton6723 what are you talking about?! Dead Skin Mask is a love song. It's about a son's non-stop love for his mother. 😂
That tone is sick as fuck
pure mid 80s slayer. their best period, straight up violence on tape
This is the best SLAYER song I've heard in years!
For real
This is the best slayer song
Best slayer song PERIOD
Exactly what my metal musician bf just said
You beat me to it. Completely agree.
The riffs are killer. Really captured the 80s Slayer essence
You: "DYEATH!"
Me: "Perfect."
I clicked subscirbe the moment I heard it.
The amount of talent here is insane! Amazing work.
It turns out that Slayer is actually a Moonic Productions cover band.
Best comment ever. OMG LMAO
😂😂😂😂
This comment should be etched in GRANITE
Dude, that Tom Araya scream…chills bro! You are an amazing musician. This is so f*cking sick! You got that legendary KFK JCM 800 tone dialed in perfectly!
Actually the JCM 800 tone was Jeff Hanneman's whereas KFK used his own signature Marshall Head!!!
@@xanderclip I know it’s the JCM 800 2203KK
Yeah bro, that scream!! Chills for real...and the guitar and lyrics. I can't watch this guy cuz I miss Slayer too much. But I may watch a couple more to get those chills again.
Araya hasn't been able to make those screams for 10 years.
This guy would be perfect to be lead singer of Kerry King's new band.
I need a full blown album of these Slayer what-ifs, lol.
Absolutely incredible!! My RUclips was on auto play, didn't know it was you and I had to look over at my phone and thought, "Did Slayer seriously make a cover of this song?!" Great job👍🏼
You've just nailed something I never knew needed to be nailed! Awesome mixes of songs, excellent channel. Thank you sir!
Thanks so much!
That's what she/he said
NAILED TO THE GUN!!!!🔫🤣🤟🏻
There's a mum joke in there somewhere, I can sense it.,
I would totally buy an album of all of your stuff!!!!
There already is one of all his SOAD covers! Look up "Moonic of a Down", it's amazing!

Weirdly insulting bullshit but okay.

The batshit crazy intensity and how it kept picking up towards the end is fuckin’ incredible. Excellent work!
I saw Slayer when they opened for Bon Jovi back in 1986 that was crazy
Your talent never ceases to amaze brother. Kerry King should call you. You never know. Nice man.
Thanks so much man!
I wouldn't be surprised if Kerry King called him that's a great idea!! I was just hearing in a video recently Kerry King still wants 2 jam 🎸🎸
You make me excited for slayer again. KK needs you in the band

Lol - the Slayer tones are amazing ( production ). The style is spot on, but the vocals - WTF dude, I'm speechless - The best video, loved it
you not only nailed the tones and arrangement but also matched the frantic energy they had, great job!
Thanks so much!
This is my 4th video of his, this guys a legend!
Vocals are so similar to Tom Araya's! And everything else is spot on! Excellent cover! What is funny is that "Livin on a prayer" sounds like a title of a slayer song as well. Your covers are always really impressive, keep up the great work!
Hahah thanks so much!!
OMG, this is so awesome. This is more Slayer then they were for the last decade.
The way this is recorded, is insane. The mix is perfect.
Man, do more of this stuff. We been orphan of Slayer for 5 years already, it's much satisfying to listen to this. It even FEELS like something new from them..
I cannot believe how much this sounds like Slayer. It's absolutely astounding. I would LOVE to see Kerry King react to this guy's videos.
Because it is Slayer, he just scream some other band's lyrics. That's all.
Mec! J'adore, je suis en train de rigoler comme un abruti sous le regard interloqué de mes enfants! Quel chaos! Tu es génial continue!!!
Now we know what a key change in a Slayer song would sound like. Superb.
Don't be silly. Their songs have tons of key changes: from speed-picked chromatic noise in E flat to speed-picked chromatic noise in E, then in G, then back to E flat. Not picking on Slayer, because I love speed-picked chromatic noise. It's the best.
