Cursed Black magic night We've been struck down Down in this Hell Spells surround me day and night Stricken by the force of evil light The force of evil light Cast Under his spell Blinding my eyes Twisting my mind Fight to resist the evil inside Captive of a force of Satan's might A force of Satan's might Fighting the curse Break it I must Laughing in sorrow Crying in lust My strength slips fast Soon I must fall Victim of fortune My sources grow small Life slips away As demons come forth Death takes my hand And captures my soul
Show No Mercy was criticized for its “poor production quality” when it came out and critics hated it, but it’s still Metal Blade Records’ best-selling album, and is I think Slayer’s best work!
@@maat8249 I am not saying that it's very similar to any classical Black metal production, just that it's not a perfect quality so it's pleasant to hear it
@@Lucas-sj2lf I know, but revisiting this, it honestly sounds very clear, not much different from KEA. If anything, the production is a bit better here imo
First four records are absolute masterpieces! Also south of Heaven and seasons in the abyss are really good, but they do not compare with reign in blood or haunting the chapel

According to the comments, I dont think you are alone. I am hard pressed to pick a favorite, I'm one of those weirdo people who like EVERYTHING Slayer ever did
Do you know original black metal? Venom, Celtic Frost, Hellhammer......What about original hardcore the crossover bands? D.R.I, Cro-Mags....It's funny how newer fans don't know a lot from before or what's kinda forgotten.
The guitar solos are what mental turmoil sounds like. Like when I go through a fucked up mental episode, these solos represent what my mind sounds like. Idk if that's the same for yalls
Slayer Slayer Slayer let them throw rocks/bricks and if they want to throw all of there food at you SLAYER !!! SLAYER!!! SLAYER!!!! WILL NEVER DIE!!!!!!!!☠️💀🤘
Un antiguo tema que me acompaña en mis sesiones de espiritismo, invocando entidades del Inframundo, gritando su dolor y sufrimiento, desde la Eternidad. (FantasmeoPunk Group, Bcn 1988-2024).
Trying to imagine a Metallica fan in 1983, thinking they have found the heaviest thrashiest shit they ever heard and then someone is like "hey have you heard of Slayer?" and then they shit their pants immediately upon hearing it.
The 80's was like an arms race with bands trying to be faster heavier and darker, Until Death Metal. I mean it kept going through the 90's with progressive stuff but it kinda hit a ceiling and then people started trying to mix Metal with this and that. I've heard some kid talking about "Dad Metal" LOL Yeah well whatever there is now is just variations of Dad Metal. That's my take.
true story, metallica on ride the lighting opened for wasp when i dioscovered them, slayer was headlining reign in blood when i discovered them. great days i was in middle school
Slayer Metal Blade era is the only Slayer era for me. I liked it when Slayer's influences were predominantly Venom, Mercyful Fate, Iron Maiden, Discharge, etc before adopting U.S. hardcore punk influences like Dead Kennedy's, The Germs, etc. Early Slayer, to me, beats Slayer Def Jams records era hands down.
Technically you're right. But remember that "Reign in Blood" is also a masterpiece of extreme metal and one of the best Slayer records of all time. I agree for "South of Heaven" and "Seasons in the Abyss" - I don't like them as much as first three albums and I consider them as highly overrated. Frankly I prefer "Divine Intervention" than these two quoted above.
Executioner I acknowledge the fact that Reign in Blood is their best album the band has ever belted (although I personally dont like it). Imo I liked it when Slayer and other early 80s to mid 80s Extreme metal / Black Metal (First wave) bands or whatever people call them played fast heavy metal style (speed metal) or with a D beat drum pattern where bands were not super fast and still kept it in the veins of heavy metal.
@@executioner1985 the only reason reign in blood is considered good,is cause most people of the new generation are stupid and slow and can't find the older stuff. Slayer sucks in general but show no mercy is their best album...
I wouldn't say that Slayer sucks, neither that "Reign in Blood" is their best album ever. I think that their early stuff is very extreme and influential. I consider "Show no Mercy" as proto-black and "Hell Awaits" as proto-death metal albums. I like a lot "Haunting the Chapel" EP and "Reign in Blood" LP but they're aren't that good as two first LPs - it's my personal opinion. I'm almost always skipping "South of Heaven" and "Seasons in the Abyss" (both are kind of mediocre/boring thrash metal for me). I like very much "Divine Intervention" (a lethal "RiB/SoH/SitA" mix). I have no particular opinion about "Undisputted Attitude", I like it's idea. And once heard the next studio album I didn't pay much attention no more to future Slayer stuff. Sorry for that useless monologue.
Mi LP de slayer tiene esa portada después sacaron otra pero esa portada es épica mi primer disco de slayer tenía 14 años y no sabía que era su debut album
whoever in the comments say that this is a black,death metal band,..ur not a true fan of the thrash metal or u dont know thrash metal classic legendary albums of SLAYER.

did she die already ?
@@mammouthlafouinne3678 Yes, in 2012. With 79 years old.
One of the most legendary metal albums of all time.
Brian Reading That would be Reign In Blood
The Guy thats why he said "one of the most legendary"
@@the_guy_actual nah
@@the_guy_actual This album is much better than Reign in Blood.
@@marcosfernandezmartinez5284 totally agree,even the riff from the beginning of reign in blood was lifted off the hell awaits album
*plays this song on full blast*
Dad: “hey, cut that shit off right now!!”
Me: “what’s the big deal?”
Dad: “there’s bigger speakers downstairs!”
Lame, he should have said theres marshall amps down here 😎
Do you think Marshall amps are the best amps?@@joelvalencia6738

I love how the microphone almost sounds like a PA system, like someone’s screaming into the intercom at a train station. the train station to hell
Cursed
Black magic night
We've been struck down
Down in this Hell
Spells surround me day and night
Stricken by the force of evil light
The force of evil light
Cast
Under his spell
Blinding my eyes
Twisting my mind
Fight to resist the evil inside
Captive of a force of Satan's might
A force of Satan's might
Fighting the curse
Break it I must
Laughing in sorrow
Crying in lust
My strength slips fast
Soon I must fall
Victim of fortune
My sources grow small
Life slips away
As demons come forth
Death takes my hand
And captures my soul
IT'S VERY GOOD!!!
SLAYERFENIA!!!!
Crying in luuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuus !!!! I can get those notes exactly ! ;)

Yep. Their best!
Yes
First four records are absolute masterpieces! Also south of Heaven and seasons in the abyss are really good, but they do not compare with reign in blood or haunting the chapel
One of the thrashiest songs Slayer did ever compose. Even after 38 years the guitar solos are still sawing through your brain. BREATH - TAKING!!!
Best Slayer song ever ever 'n' ever!
thats raining blood plus postmortem
That's Angel of Death and Hell Awaits
Seasons in the Abyss
war ensemble and kill again
HELL AWAITS #1 DEAD SKIN MASK #2 BLACK MAGIC # 3
My first Slayer vinyl in early 80's. More lovely in 2020 than ever.

Thank you Jeff for inspiring me to pick up the electric guitar
Sure it wasn't pop culture? Lotta hipsters play guitar.
And thank you Dave for inspiring me to play drums
Thank you Tom Araya for inspiring to pick up Bass
Thank you Kerry for inspiring me to practice
@@Selzor LMAO
I've been using this as my alarm clock song for a number of years now
Waking up must be great.
One of my favorite slayer tunes.........!!!!!!!\\m//.
Their production is top notch, drums always sounds incredible
Sounds like he's using metal impact pads on the bass heads
the recording process for the drums is kinda crazy and sounds annoying to pull off, drums and cymbals recorded separately
Love this and tormentor off this cd! The whole cd is timeless!
Wow.. What a awesome song! What a awesome album! A true thrash metal classic that stands the test of time!!
My favorite song of em'
Slayer at his peak!
I still have this LP 😊
Eu também comprei quando tinha 15 anos (58) R i B é foda mais SnM é meu preferido
I just can't pick my favorite 😊

According to the comments, I dont think you are alone.
I am hard pressed to pick a favorite, I'm one of those weirdo people who like EVERYTHING Slayer ever did
nope, a lot of slayer fans would agree with you…I’m a bit strange for having my favorite be Haunting The Chapel
I love Reign In Blood but those two albums are amazing.
Best song in album!
I refuse to believe that it wasnt inspiration for Black Metal as we know it today.
Do you know original black metal? Venom, Celtic Frost, Hellhammer......What about original hardcore the crossover bands? D.R.I, Cro-Mags....It's funny how newer fans don't know a lot from before or what's kinda forgotten.

The more I listen to this album, the more I hear its influence on Testament’s debut “The Legacy”.
The hell are you talking about isnt this released before The Legacy?
