i love that you can actually hear the bass on this album and on this performance. alot of the times when i see them live its like toms bass might as well be unplugged

LAST SONG RIP JEFFFF AND SLAYERRRRRR FOREVER !!!!!!
I was also at this show and I can't believe it was taped! My ears were ringing for a week afterwards. Still ranks as one of the top 5 shows I've ever seen. I watched all the videos and was trying to see the inverted crosses at each end of the stage with lights on them - couldn't find it. If you have more of these vids post em! Any vids of Slayer at L'Amour in Brooklyn? Those shows were the sickest. Also the reason for no real pit as the place was packed and you could barely move.
I believe they are referring to when Dave Lombardo quit in 86 for around 6 months and Tony Scaglione had joined Slayer. Dave eventually rejoined Slayer in 87.
I had the pleasure of seeing Slayer at the Aragon Ballroom in Chicago. It was the most intense show I'd ever seen, and the most fun. General admission and started out around where the 3rd row would be then the pit started and it was chaos the whole concert!
My friend was tony portaro's cousin(the singer and guitarist from whiplash) yes tony scaglione did fill in for lombardo in 1987 I was four but liked metal I used to drink beer with tony's cousin after school
one thing that made Slayer so rad then was that Tom Araya played bass w/o a pick,so the bass was all muddy and blobby sounding,you can especially hear it in the last 20 seconds of this vid. it gave them a muddy,depths of hell sound that they lost after Reign In Blood like the Haunting The Chapel EP,that has that awesome muddy,dark sound that made them so evil at that time Samhain had that kinda sound too
@mikeystringthumper cool,im a guitarist but i think its criminal what happens to most bass parts. sometimes a band will have a virtuoso on bass and unless you listen really hard you would never know
I've always said that about Slayer. They are closer to black metal than Venom is, in my opinion, sound wise. Their earlier albums were a lot more Satanic, and a lot of the black metal bands were influenced by Slayer. Yeah, they can thrash like no other, but I've always thought of them as the next progression towards black metal after Venom and before Bathory.
West Is Best I get where you are coming from, but darker lyrics and tone don't make a band black metal. Of course there is a Venom influence but Slayer is far from black metal. It's closer to a death metal vibe if anything.
thrashtildeth247 I could see that. Maybe like Possessed. They were influenced by Slayer. Lyrically, I'd say Slayer was much closer to Black Metal back in the day. And some Black Metal bands have Slayer-influenced riffs, like "Carving a Giant" by Gorgoroth. Early Slayer, for me, is hard to place, because thrash was not really Satanic. It was fast, but they sang about different shit from Metallica, Anthrax, Megadeth and their likes. Slayer was much, much darker lyrically, and their riffs sounded much more Satanic. But, that doesn't make them Black Metal. I'd say they are a genre all of their own.
wow i never thought i'd say it but i would be so insanely scared to get into that mosh just like oh my god im sure id end up in there and love it but as a 125 pound fifteen year i'd get fucking annihilated haha
"JESUS KNOWS YOUR SOUL CANNOT BE SAVED!!!" DEDICATED TO THE ITALIAN CATHOLIC WOMAN WHO HAS NO DAY OF REST (SABBATH; DEUT. 5:12-15) FROM "VICARIUS FILII DEI" WITH LOVE ...
Yeah i know he is from Chile, u and everyone else r just taking my previous comment a bit to seriously even though i said i was joking, and that tom rocks
And the youth today think they can shock the older generation with untalented rap, lol (c)rap, absolutely hilarious, 1:37 lol ... actually sounds as from hell
i held seeing slayer in dublin in '88 as being the all time best gig i'd ever seen until i saw ministry in dublin in '03. i couldn't walk the following day, i couldn't hear properly for three. mind you i was on crutches after the 88 slayer gig. ministry was still better though
The Crowd looks like a swirling mass of dead souls in Hell. Some of them reach up, only to be put down. A Slayer show is Hell.
I was fuckin there
1:35 that's how you dance to this music lmao the dude gets it
Fuck yeah homie...I was there
I'm from NYC and I was there
Complete madness hell on earth
i love that you can actually hear the bass on this album and on this performance. alot of the times when i see them live its like toms bass might as well be unplugged

Audio is really good in this video 🤘👍
i miss Slayer shows like this no phones, just a bunch of kids having fun and moshing.

Awesome! You can hear Dave Lombardo's drumming clearest in this version.

FallnEmpire this is lombardo lol
Great show. Slayer at their prime. Agnostic Front opened. Skins were makin fun of the smoke but totally got into it!! The good ole days!
I had the pleasure of seeing Slayer at the Aragon Ballroom in Chicago. It was the most intense show I'd ever seen, and the most fun. General admission and started out around where the 3rd row would be then the pit started and it was chaos the whole concert!
the main riff makes me headbang as hell

This clip is killer.
Holy Slayer
I was there too! Awesome
Would love too have seen Megadeth and Slayer play at the Ritz together in 1986 or any other place.
one thing that made Slayer so rad then was that Tom Araya played bass w/o a pick,so the bass was all muddy and blobby sounding,you can especially hear it in the last 20 seconds of this vid.
it gave them a muddy,depths of hell sound that they lost after Reign In Blood
like the Haunting The Chapel EP,that has that awesome muddy,dark sound that made them so evil at that time
Samhain had that kinda sound too

When I’m in hell I wish Slayer plays the soundtrack
Dude I totally agree, Hell Awaits is my favourite. I put show no mercy on par with Reign in Blood.
I was at this show.... When did I get old??
UP SLAYER!

Raybees, Big Charlie, Mick, Joe workin the stage.
This song should seriously become the national anthem of "Arbetsförnedringen" in Sweden *sarcasm*
Slayer 👍♥️🇱🇷🔧
Oh if only I was born at least 50 years earlier and lived in America lol
Slayer mosh pits are Legendary
TOM ARRAYA BARKS LIKE A AUCTONEER OR THE ANNOUNER AT ATHE RACE TRACK DURRING THE MOVIE "WINNING "
@mikeystringthumper cool,im a guitarist but i think its criminal what happens to most bass parts. sometimes a band will have a virtuoso on bass and unless you listen really hard you would never know
I swear to god, no bullshit or exageration, When I hear 4:09, I litterally got goosebumps until it was over...
More fog!!! A spinal tap moment.
fucking awesome !
You know what would have made this perfect? MORE fucking smoke!!!! \m/
Pure black thrash metal
No.

Slayer is just a THRASH metal band. No way black..maybe satanic(early-day), someway but not black..
Can't decide between Hell and RiB. Depends on the mood. Hell is more weird, melodic and darker, RiB is pure thrash fun!
Is the band even there? More Smoke!!!
I was there
MORE SMOKE!
@onretilom yep. these things happen, ya know.
wow i never thought i'd say it but i would be so insanely scared to get into that mosh just like oh my god im sure id end up in there and love it but as a 125 pound fifteen year i'd get fucking annihilated haha
wicked mosh-pit, wish i could headbang/windmill like them

Tom Araya, the renegade right hand of god
And the youth today think they can shock the older generation with untalented rap, lol (c)rap, absolutely hilarious, 1:37 lol ... actually sounds as from hell
4;09 HHHHEEEEEEELLLLLLL AAAAAAAAWWAAIIIITTTTSSS
the pit looks like a couldron of DEMONS! >:-)
Isnt it Studio 54? It became the ritz in the early 90's right?
Do they do weddings ?
i held seeing slayer in dublin in '88 as being the all time best gig i'd ever seen until i saw ministry in dublin in '03. i couldn't walk the following day, i couldn't hear properly for three. mind you i was on crutches after the 88 slayer gig.
ministry was still better though
no due i say no due eve neve will be like karry and jeff in metal history.
Hey man do u have any clue of where i can find this entire concert? the fuckin bassdrum and araya's voice sounds so fuckin good
Love this video wish I was here fuck,
do my ears deceive me or did the drums overpower the others at the beginning for once?
hots towel that is Lombardo killing it dude is unreal.
It sucks that security has to be that evident up front at the stage!
They should be there, but not be seen.
Great heavy start, great gig.
Very very late but you should see them at Necrophobic, one of them powerbombs a stage jumper back into the pit!
4:09 ... (O_O;) That shit'll wake the dead!
