- This is our first time listening to Slayer. It's kind of a rough reaction because we couldn't find a version of Angel of Death with good audio quality.

Clearwater, FL 33758
Good on you Brad for realizing it’s like a “history lesson”, not promoting these things.
Exactly---I am glad that Brad picked up on that right away, because many people who don't usually listen to the music don't. Many bands from the genre used history, literature, current events, etc., in the lyrics, as well as above average vocabulary. Anyone who says metal is for dummies is the one who needs to learn something.
I'm with Lex---after listening for decades and thinking about it recently, Megadeth for me is #1, Slayer and Metallica tied for #2, and Anthrax in #3 for my Big Four.
My favourite since 1987, still the best.
This should be normal reaction.
yes, the song is about the Nazi doctor Josef Mengel, aka "Angel of Death" who performed horrible experiments on prisoners
Listening to this song isn’t any worse than watching a documentary about the same piece of crap!!!
You gotta listen to the studio version before hearing slayer live. It's harder to understand listening to the live stuff first. Especially with how fast they play.
I also notice a huge change in Araya's voice with age. He sounds tired and stressed in this, definitely doesn't carry the same energy as the studio version
@@RastaganTheGreen The years wear us all down, just think how accelerated that is for most rockers/stars!
@@RastaganTheGreen got to see them on the start of their farewell tour... his voice actually sounded better than the first time I saw em back in 98. Crazy how his voice changes back and fourth over the years
Agreed. Never react to Slayer live (unless you've already heard the studio version). Slayer live has always been about the raw energy of the thing rather than flawless exicution of their music. You can go with the live version for a band like Iron Maiden, but not Slayer.
Slayer live is very fun if you already know their music, but not a good introduction.
Please never do live version as a 1st reaction (of any song, idc how good the live is)…you never ever hear the detailed instrumets in the live versions. For example, 1st time i heard Tornado of souls was a live version, and I thought it sucked even the solo, then 3 months later i listened the studio version and i fuking love it, another song is For whom the bell tolls ( the live cliff burton bass one) which I absolutely hated 😂 then i listened the Studio version and i actually liked it
Should always do STUDIO VERSION FIRST. Especially with faster bands..
Especially since this song in 20 plus years old in this live version
And because I believe that the slower version adds menace, dread...
Best ones are always the original recording.
Absolutely
Nah, Emperor live at Wacken is a far better quality of recording than any of their pre equilibrium albums
South of Heaven, Dead Skin Mask, Black Magic, Spill the blood, Skeletons of Society, War Ensemble, Ghosts of war. The list goes on. but there are few to get started.
Dead Skin Mask!
Disciple with lyrics.
Dead skin mask my all time fav.
Dude you didn’t mention raining blood?
I definitely agree with the first two, if you're a first time Slayer reactor. Studio versions though!
Rick Rubin has had his hands on some great albums. This one is the best 30 min of thrash money can buy.
Rick Rubin is easily one of the most important figures in music history.
Please never do live version as a 1st reaction (of any song, idc how good the live is)…you never ever hear the detailed instrumets in the live versions. For example, 1st time i heard Tornado of souls was a live version, and I thought it sucked even the solo, then 3 months later i listened the studio version and i fuking love it, another song is For whom the bell tolls ( the live cliff burton bass one) which I absolutely hated 😂 then i listened the Studio version and i actually liked it
Yea but he did not help promote it, he's a hypocrite, this song in particular was deemed too controversial
Best Rick Rubin "album"?
Deconstruction
Change My Mind
@@BamaXander Why? Did he write the music? I realize the importance of how it sounds and stuff, but unless he wrote some of the music, I irks me.
Wow... I never thought about it, but Slayer, Iron Maiden, Megadeth, and Rage Against the Machine really did educate me better than any scholastic setting in my youth.
I looked up Auschwitz because of Slayer. Now....every time I see that something about WW2 is on the History Chanel, I can't take my eyes off of it.
Those bands made me drink more beer and smoke more weed which I'm doing right now..
There are two kinds of metalheads
So during that first verse I was totally fixated on Brad's face as he's reading these f'd up lyrics about Mengele. Then I look over at Lex and she has the happiest look on her face. LOL She loves rock soooo much, it's fantastic!! The contrast was amazing hahaha
Imagine brad reading some Cannibal Corpse lyrics
@@jimwiater2867 I want these guys to do Suffocation Liege of inveracity, Terrence Hobbs and Mike Smith together..
@@jimwiater2867 He would be completely puzzled. He has never been accused of being smart...
South of Heaven by Slayer might be more of Brad’s speed. Personally, my favorite Slayer song is Blood Red. If you two could add these songs to your list that would be sick.
Threshold is his speed and brutal
@@yruphuct2 That song rules🤘🤘. Or maybe even God Send Death or Exile.
I personally think South of Heaven is a good INTRO song to Slayer. The rest of slayer is like throwing them into the deep end and expecting them to swim. :)
No way! im a big slayer fan and i absolutely hate Blood Red, i think its one of their worst songs imo. My fav thats hard i dont know which song so many good ones, chemical warfare, hell awaits (basically all songs) aswell as Reign in blood album. Maybe necrophiliac, but anyway blood red thats crazy hahah strange to me.
@@mrgoodsenchou5512 - Yeah, Blood Red is a strange pick for me too. I've actually turned some people onto Slayer with "South of Heaven" and then I eased them into the faster and more intense stuff. :)
Fair play to you Lex. Slayer takes a lot of getting used to, but once you get into them, they will be up there! And I don't really like their stuff after Seasons in the Abyss.
Something must CLEARLY be wrong with you. Maybe you're just another one of these new trendy metal "hipsters" that hates everything after a certain "year", i don't know. but EVERY Slayer record is brutal as fvkk & rips ass.
There's some decent tracks on the album after seasons in the abyss as well as on diabolis and on God hates us all.
I am an old school Slayer fan but I have really come to appreciate a lot of their 2000s songs - World Painted Blood, Disciple, Hate Worldwide, Bloodline, Payback, Psychopathy Red...are all extreme bangers.
@@satanlaffing lmao hipster! I saw them on the Clash of the Titans tour. It's just my preference that I'm not into some of the albums after Seasons. Each to their own pal! I said I'm just not really into the later albums. 🤘🏻
@UCj05RZ0OqEejkd6NA2cBLYQ i wasn't talking about you. I was talkin' about the other dude soundin' like those trendy hipsters who try to sound cool by sayin' how EVERYTHING sucks after a certain year/period.
A lot of Iron Maiden songs have lyrics about history
And Sabaton
I definitely think they should check out some more Iron Maiden.
@@John57945 have they done ANY Iron Maiden?
@@m.f.culler9012 They have reacted to Hallowed Be Thy Name.
I was just about to suggest Iron Maiden “Alexander the Great”.
I tried for a couple of decades to 'get' Slayer. One of my exes years ago was obsessed with them. Didn't get it at all.
One day a couple of years back, they came on a random playlist I was listening to in the gym. They absolutely 'clicked' in that moment. I actually found myself dancing a little bit to their little bits of groove in South of Heaven and Seasons in The Abyss during that session, and the groove after the second verse of Angel Of Death. Then I noticed I 'got' all the heavier songs than that that they do that I'd rejected for years.
Just in time for their final UK show at Download festival. One of the greatest gigs, and pits, I've been to. The insane thing about that pit was is was full of huge guys colliding, and then in the middle of all the chaos you'd find a petite lass in the thick of it without a scratch on her. Pits are amazing things.
My best one was in Rotterdam, a while ago, insane!
I get what you mean about stuff clicking though. I loved Slayer the very second I heard them but years later when ‘Burn my eyes’ by that new fangled band ‘machine head’ was released - I hated it - was probably just the fuss and the hype at that time that put me off to be fair. But then one day maybe a year later I ‘got’ it. I stopped listening to Slayer when Jeff died 😕
Did you and your ex both realize you should date other guys? Kidding. Just couldn't pass on the opportunity for a lighthearted jab...
🤘😝🤘 studio version is waaay better.
Esse vídeo ton Araya já tava bem velho não aguentava cantar como no começo de carreira
STUDIO VERSION. Back when Tom was young and that scream just hit you.
That scream is iconic. Thanks partly to MTV's Headbangers Ball for using it in their intro.
Yea, was disappointed in this one. :(
A member of the big 4 Slayer, Metallica, Megadeth and Anthrax. Now you have to check out Anthrax. Suggest Caught in a mosh, Indians, I am the law, Antisocial, I'm the man, and Bring the noise with Public Enemy.
For Anthrax, I'd suggest almost anything off of "Amoung thr Living".
Just my $.02
In My World
Schism
Plz continue your Slayer rabbit hole. I was hooked th moment I heard them. Been a fan for almost 30 years. Love you guys 😎
Thanks for doing slayer this was awesome. Long live jeff and long live slayer. The band im in use to tour with them in the 80s
"is an interesting thing to do in a song, is like a history lesson"
Sabayon: hold my beer and my rifle
more like tank
Sabaton is like reading the first sentence of a wikipedia page, there is far more interesting band who cover history, and even more so musicaly.
@@kingofheavymetal true, but Sabaton are VERY easy to get into if you're not already a metalhead. ^^
@@StevenFox80 Sure, it's just weird for me being a metalhead before Sabaton even released their first album how they became so big with something so meh, feels like to me there is dozen of bands like them and even more bands way better, it's just the boomer inside of me trying to understand the why haha
@@kingofheavymetal to me they feel a little like Manowar and you got to take them for what they are. Nothing too serious, but not bad at all either. For me they're a great band you can put on when spending time with people who don't appreciate (extreme) metal that much. ^^
I just love how she's swaying to the beat , and he's like rocking side to side like it's Twinkle Twinkle Little Star!!
Dead Skin Mask is the one for you, great riffs, great groove, heavy tune.
One of my favorites for sure. Just a little worried about the reaction when Brad finds his answer to, "but what is it about?". lol
One of my favorite Slayer songs. It is creepy AF too
@@robertkalinowski9391 the same inspiration for Buffalo Bill in Silence of The Lambs
Never been huge into slayer, but seasons in the abyss is a beast of a song
Along with Dead Skin Mask. Two mid era Slayer songs that are series bangers.
@@BuckeyeaTransplant wait your not the postmodern jukebox guy are you?
Favorite Slayer of song of all time.
BTW Lex is a true metal head at heart I believe 🤘🏻
ZRock used to play this every morning at 7am and that was my wake up song. Let me tell you, once that first riff hit, you were wide awake. 😂
I was sinking in some sadness today, this song brought me back on track. Liked that energy and yours either.
Looks like we gotta do a Studio version of Angel Of Death. Much love from Chicago, keep killing it Brad & Lex ❤️🤘
Slayer is the best band EVER!!! For another really cool history lesson, check out the song Alexander the Great by Iron Maiden.
I'd recommend listening to Slayer's studio songs before the live versions
Yes! Finally!!! I’ve been waiting for a Slayer reaction! I’ve seen Slayer 4 times, such an amazing show. There are so many Slayer songs you need to listen to.
crikey guy, you kicked it up a notch here..
saw pantera and slayer the same night at download back in the day...
war ensemble was insane..
Lex, I love your taste in metal and this Slayer song is really fast, especially live, so I get why it didn't completely pull you in. Next slayer song try Mandatory suicide, South of heaven which are older and have a slower heavier groove
Y'all need to listen to the studio album version and react to that. I feel Lex will much better hear and appreciate all the details of the song better.
Ah, Slayer. They were the first band I truly loved as a teenager. Such a shame its all over now, but they made some real bangers that stand the test of time.
I put Slayer above Metallica & Megadeth simply because they spanned a 40 plus year career with little to NO radio play , yet they are Legends 🤘🤘🤘🔥🔥
If you guys want another song that’s a history lesson, “run to the Hills“ by iron maiden is an excellent song choice
Gojira NEEDS to be next!!
Heaviest matter of the universe!
STRANDED
Slayer is the metal band that is that line where it goes from safe and fun metal (nothing wrong with that. I love that stuff too.) straight to not for the faint of heart both musically and lyrically.
Slayer is insane. Even watching live shows doesn't do it justice. True story. I'm at one of the several Slayer shows I attended. There's like three pits going apeshit on the floor and all around them people are picking other people up to crowd surf to the stage. As if THAT isn't wild enough on it's own you see a group of people just converge on this one spot. A couple seconds later you see a dude in a wheelchair, both his arms straight up giving the horns, being crowd surfed towards the stage.
People lost their damn minds at Slayer shows on a level you had to see to believe. Best explanation of what Slayer fans are like and what seeing them was like is the comedy routine by Jim Breuer just called "Slayer Fans". It's still one of the funniest things ever because it's 100 percent true!
Oh, this is perfect! I was hoping you heard this song first before any other. Now, cant wait for the scream................lets go!!
Okay, okay.... you have OFFICIALLY been baptized now! So many great tracks and albums in Slayer's catalog! Another track with an equally contraversial theme is God Hates Us All. Love your reactions! Stay well!
When this came out I was 13. I listened to so much Slayer and Exodus that Metallica was "too slow" for me lol. I agree with Lex, the studio version is where it's at.
Hi Brad and Lex. Thank you for this. I really enjoy your features. Keep it up!
This is definitely a low quality video. Try out Slayer - Seasons in the Abyss - they do not block reactions to the official video.
For a history lesson...wait until you guys dig into Iron Maiden more. I think Maiden might be a band Brad could come to appreciate. Recommend Rime of the Ancient Mariner - good live performances online that do not get blocked.
Definitely do Alexander Great by Iron Maiden. History lesson right there!
If you want history lessons from songs, react to a lot of Iron Maiden. And if you want to hear details in solos, react to Eddie Van Halen's Eruption guitar solo from the "Live Without a Net" concert.
You could also title this video "First time hearing the best song ever written by the best band to ever exist." :P Even though it is not your genre of music, I am glad you were able to appreciate it for what it was. I moshed to this song dozens of times at Slayer concerts over the decades.
Welcome to the rabbit hole that is slayer. I'm 48, been listening to these guys since 85. My favorite metal band of all time!!!!!!
Good on you for giving Slayer a go! I'm also glad you got the message of this song, it's not glorifying any of the awful things they're singing about at all. Also, the crazy solo in this is supposed to mimic the cries of the victims of Joseph Mengele. Try Season's in the Abyss, it's a bit groovier, not in your face so much!
Always go with the studio version when listening to anything for the fist time. Also I recommend Dead Skin Mask or South of Heaven
Brad, If you're interested in another song about history, check out "Rest in Pieces (April 15, 1912)" by Metal Church. It's about the sinking of the Titanic. It's a great song, from an even greater album. Sadly, the singer passed away on July 26, 2021.
I was excited to see this reaction. Saw that it was a crappy live version, and then immediately turned it off.
In high school, we read the book Night by Elie Wiesel based on his holocaust experience. In turn, I showed this song to my English teacher and she played it in class.
You want a band that’s a little bit heavy, great musicians and excellent storytelling is iron maiden. Try songs by them like aces high or the trooper.
Dunno if I'd say Iron Maiden is heavier than Slayer...
@@metetural9140 I definately know I would say that IM is not nearly as heavy as Slayer. I was talking in general, they are not a soft rock but a heavy metal.
I love Lex cause she likes metal, but brad came with a really good idea for teaching! both are great!
Love you guys and your courage for taking the trip to memory lane with us metal head's
I’ve been listening to all sorts of heavy music for 25+ years but I just don’t like Slayer. Definitely one of the craziest mosh pits I’ve ever seen though. 🤘😆🤘
Its def an aquired taste. Its for sure not for everybody. I like there first couple of albums and thats it. But yes been to several Slayer shows and I would never get into the pit. Hands down most violent pit ive ever seen. Ive seen one show in Detroit inpaticular where they were carrying people out of it all night long.
@@138NastyNate I’ve seen them a couple times but the craziest was at The World Music Theater in Tinley Park Illinois. It’s an outdoor theater and the back half of the venue is all grass, there was a huge dirt cloud over the pit. I mean HUGE 😁
@@jpanici LOL Yea Ive seen the Sod Wars before. SMH Some peoples kids.
Slayer has some of the worst solos but great riffs and drumming.
Kerry is really bad think Phil anselmo would be a better guitar player
@@markusbinder907 hey now let's not go *That* far
one thing is a dude in a room with all the time, other thing is on stage. kerry is a good player. just normal, not a shredder. no need to be a shredder to do music. also slayer solos are strange and sometimes sound out of key. they just do on purpose, they sure can plan a major or minor scale but that's what a lot of people does. they do a song about those things, what u expect? a clean happy solo in C major like a kids song?
Add Dimebags solos to Slayers riffs...perfection.
@@smn1085 I agree and no one can convince me that Reign in Blood is not the best 30 min of thrash money can buy.
Brad has a great idea!!! History lesson in schools with archive footage. I thinks that's genius! SERIOUSLY! Instead of throwing books at them that they can't read anyway. It makes sense.
You need to listen to Slayer's studio recordings to appreciate the musicianship. Tell 'em Lex!
Slayer goes to church is one the best videos on youtube. Its basically this song being played to clips of people going crazy catching the holy spirit LoL!
I'm a Slayer fan but, yeah, their guitar solos are crap. They are effective, I'm just saying technically, they're rubbish.
If we wanted technicality we would just have shitty ass Micheal Angelo Batios everywhere. Fuck outta here with technicality, Slayer is about chaos. They can play whatever they want, they just choose and find more fun in playing this style.
@@keithgraham8588 I didn't mean they are technically unskilled. I meant technically the solos are incoherent babble. Like I said they are effective. I wasn't suggesting everyone needs to play solos like John Petrucci. Listen to KK Downing's live "Victim of Changes" solo. It's just noise, but it's perfection!
For real. Love Slayer, but Kerry Kings solos sound like an AOL Dial-up Modem.
They are never melodic and usually don't match the song. I think abstract solos is the best description.
Still it ain´t easy to play solos like Slayer especially if you truly know how to play guitar. it´s just like trying to sing out of tune when you´re a good singer. It takes talent to play "bad" solos. EVH wouldn´t have played good Slayer solos, they would have been too good so they would have been awful in the context of slayer. Slayer solos - they are representation of chaos and total mayhem. They are art on their own level.
I saw Slayer, and Testament together in the early 90s in Richmond VA at "The Mosque" (lol, how appropriate :D ). Slayer, during Angel of Death was SOOO thunderously loud, that paintchips the size of paper plates were cracking and falling from the rotunda :) EPICNESS!
Angel of Death is not only one of the most supreme songs of SLAYER (the best for me) it is also one of the best heavy metal songs ever made.
Hey Guys, Glad your doin Slayer, one of my Fav's. Check out South of Heaven, Skeletons of Society, Dead Skin Mask, or Seasons in the Abyss. These guys been around a long time and have tons of incredible songs!
They should play this in school when they teach this. Damn Brad, f#&king love the way you think, man!!
If you're familiar with Public Enemy's "She Watch Channel Zero," you might recognize that song's primary sample from "Angel of Death."
I guess they are not so musically backed up. I thought they would recognize it immediately.
Took me back to my teen years 1987 seeing them live for the first time. Was so loud my ears rung for two days.
Their concerts were great fun.
I love the fact that Lex is already becoming a metal snot, breaking comparisons of the type of Thrash she likes ❤
😜🤟❤️
I remember watching some talk show from the US just after this came out and they had these holy rollers on trying to get metal banned and they played this song specifically saying it was corrupting youth. Then some teenage kid stands up and asks them if they've actually listened to the lyrics, which of course they hadn't.
You reacted to this video before I began following your platform so the first time i watched this (and every time after) i didn't leave a comment because i figured the time had passed. But now - almost a year after i have been following you guys - i have to just say - i LOVE this reaction. This is actually the first time you reacted to Slayer. So Killer !! Brad - you even get the name mixed up. So funny. What a sensory overload this must have been. Brad - i know you're not a fan of the "shrill" or "high" guitar sounds - so parts of this must have been unpleasant. Lex - i love your curiosity about this new thrash music (at that time) you were just learning about. This just cements that you are my favorite reaction platform. Can't wait until you do some more metal / punk. No rush. I'm patient.
Yooooo Big Homie you have a real Metal Head on your hands! Best advice let her love Metal as much as she wants!!! 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
Love how Kerry King and Jeff hanneman (R.I.P) play off each other with the guitar solos
Saw some more recent videos from you two before watching this. I love that Lex discovered she's a metalhead. Grinning from ear to ear. And Brad is correct, this is more of a history lesson. A lot of music is written, sung and viewed as though the singer is advocating for or speaking from personal experience. That's frequently not the case with heavy metal.
I worked with a lady who walked through the back of the shop one day when I was listening to slayer and was flabbergasted. She said, "How do you listen to this? Doesn't this music just make you angry?" I said, "No, this music makes me happy. Listening to something like Justin Bieber makes me angry".
As far as education goes, I probably learned more from heavy metal music than I did in high school. One exception being a field trip to the holocaust museum. That was eye opening. Don't remember learning much about Josef Mengele though.
Another history lesson through music was about Marquis de Sade. That was from Exodus in the song Architect of Pain.
Hey! I'm in the pit somewhere! Live Intrusion gig, filmed at Mesa Amphitheatre. They had big burly dudes called the Chaos Crew with cameras built in to like Bicycle helmets running through the crowd to capture footage for the VHS release of this gig. Was a great time.
My introduction to Slayer was Seasons in the Abyss, played on MTV back on the original Headbanger's Ball. Another song to consider is Overkill's Shades of Gray or Ignorance and Innocents.
Jeff Hanneman (RIP) ,the guitarist with hair , was a massive ww2 expert. His grandfather fought and flourished for the armed forces during and Jeff therefore has 1 of the world's largest ww2 memorabilia collections.
BAMM! Brad nailed it, awesome. Even as a Slayer fan, I can respect & appreciate your insights. 👍🤘
Lex is totally in her element and grooving while Brad just looks traumatized like he's actually seen the angel of death.
Slayer is my all time favorite band. There is no close second. Love you guys and your reaction videos.
OMG Brad!!!! YES! they should play this in all schools!!!
World painted blood is a real thrash metal masterpiece
yes you got to check out the studio version
This very song was the first Slayer song I heard back in 1987. I had never heard anything heaver than Metallica/Megadeth before this album. 30 minute long cassette tape was perfect for jamming to on lunch break. Been a fan ever since. The whole album is fire ;)
Saw Slayer live a few years ago at Carolina Rebellion. Slip Knot ended the weekend of shows. Autographed guitar hanging on the wall has Gary of Slayer and Corey Taylor of Slipknot as well as many others. Oh the memories! Great job on the reactions.
I have seen Slayer live in the
1980s
1990s
2000s
2010s
I was 7 or 8 when I heard Slayer's Hell Awaits on radio. That day I heard the call. Metalhead for life. \m/ Angel of Death is my favourite song to this day.
Tom: AUSCHWITZ THE MEANING OF PAIN,THE WAY THAT I WANT YOU TO DIE
Lex: *Smiles and vibes*
Definitely should have done a studio lyric video reaction for this song.
Top 3 metal song for me. Right at the top with Holy Wars and Puppets. Easily Slayers best song and just horrifying lyrics and subject matter. Brilliant stuff
Oh yeah!!!! Been waiting for this!! About to watch 😁😁😁
And as a life long slayer fan, I wish you'd have done the studio version. They aren't always the greatest live 😔 the details lex speaks of are much more available on the studio version. Aside from that, there are many more "accessible" songs that could have been your first introduction. As my favorite channel, I would love you guys to do my dream Slayer reaction. It would be a double song. South of Heaven followed by the next song on the album Silent Scream. The transition between the songs is awesome and the differing of intensity between the two songs. Also the lyricism is intense
Studio version for Angel of Death. Check out the song Seasons in the Abyss by Slayer. It's also the name of the album and all the songs are sick. Really enjoying your reactions!!
Alexander the Great from Iron Maiden is another history lesson in a song👍
Probably my all time favorite jam from them. I love this shit.
The album Reign in Blood where Angel of Death is on is 34 minutes of bells to the wall Mayhem and its a legendary album
First video I've ever watched Brad longer becuse you can see him reading the lyrics. ;
One most accualy read the words and back in the day all bands made album's and they went from song to song,, we used to listen to entire albums front threw back,, and then put on the next,, and we used to have a very large mix,, from Slayer to the beetles, to rage against the machine, to the doors, to Beasty boys, to Janis Joplin,, to ........ As a 49 yo back wen I was young there was so much music and as we grew up into adults we learned to love many many types,, we are the world is x gen,, hands across America,, we grew up with Whitney Houston and Micheal J, as well as Slayer, mega death,, and bands such as minor threat, ministry, the Ramon's,suicidal tendancy, sex pistols, NWA, DR Dre, Snoop, ......... Don't ever be blind to music, no matter what some one else tells you,, one most listen to it freely, and IV found a lot of junk,, but also, the good stuff is really good,, go from this to rem every body hurts, then some Bob Marley, then into Megadeath, then slide in some Janis Joplin, or maybe some Patty Label, or maybe some credence clear water🤔🤔 go for it👍🙏
most iconic song by the most iconic band in heavy music.!! basically the audio quality is really good... ♥
I went to a music festival where slayer was the last band to play. I was so tired from being in moshpits all day, I fell asleep during slayer lol I was so mad. So I had to go to the festival in a different state a month later so I could see them.
So blessed that I got to see them live many times, the last being 11/19 in MSG on their farewell tour.
Damn Brad that was so much truth in what you said about teaching them thru song and not just thru text books.
Slayer is your Heavier side. Gotta ease into this guy's. 😁
I am saying this again! Seasons in the Abyss! It will be right up both of your lanes!
Stunning. Masterpiece
