Seeing Jeff Hanneman tearing that guitar to shreds make me tear up. RIP Jeff!!!!
Same. He was a tragic loss
All that talent died with him just like Eddie Vanhalen. Just appreciate the legacy they left behind...rip
😢
#fuckspiders
I balled my eyes out when I heard he passed. Jeff is pure
Lex really gets it,there’s only one way to play slayer and that’s turned all the way up!!!🤘🏻
You need to feel like the bass is pummelling your guts!
slayer? Pretty sure its SLAYER😋
@@chimairanl9043 Pretty sure it's FUCKIN SLAYER........heh heh
gotta feel the bass in your chest and that little tickle in your inner ear from the guitar squeals. If your ears aren't ringing when you're done you're doing it wrong.
I've heard it's actually illegal to listen to Slayer at a low volume level.
I think "Seasons in the Abyss" is the next Slayer song that you should conquer!
I totally agree with you.
They already reacted to Seasons, look through their vids to find it
@@paulbrown8402 i couldn't find it
@@jrs5121 My brain is gone to mush, I can't either. My mistake :(
@@paulbrown8402 I think it was Dead Skin Mask they reacted to.
Can't beat Slayer for pure aggression. They played Chemical Warfare the first time I saw them live (this is late 80s), a simple yet utterly brutal riff.
Listen to Razor, one of the few thrash bands that can actually beat Slayer in pure aggression.
They played Chemical Warfare and Hell Awaits at their last show at Madison Square Garden and I do not remember them ever playing the times I saw them in the 90's.
best Slayer song for me 😈😈
One of my all time sleeper tracks off Decade Of Aggression.....perfect!
Chemical Warfare is a must listen for up and coming Slayer fans.
There was NOTHING quite on earth as the actual physical experience of being at or in a Slayer show!! 🤘🔥
🤘RIP JEFF H 🤘
🤘❤🇨🇦
All you hear is F*cking slayer at their concerts , as a matter of fact been to alot of concerts and Ive heard people yell F*cking Slayer at some point at the many concerts I've been too and slayer wasn't even there ,lol f*cking great lol
My first show was Testament and Slayer in 1991. I fought my way to the front guard rail. It felt like everyone around me was 10 ft tall. I was petrified and amped at the same time. Slayer was loud as fuck!
5x!! 😍😍
Proud to have seen them once. Seasons tour. 🤘
My 29th time seeing Slayer was at the Forum 11/30/19. Final show. Miss them.
Dave Lombardo killin' the drums!
BEAST
Im wrecked just looking at him😂 how do you do that every friggn night 😮🙄
@@declanmcguirk9199 Very good techique.
super nice guy , met him when touring with Testament
I put Lombardo up with greats. Peart. Moon. Bonham. Because he was in Slayer and thrash. No respect
I am in AWE of LEX's ability to truly appreciate EVERYTHING, she hears.
From Metal, To classic rock, to 80's synth, pop...whatever, to blues, to rap, to WHATEVER.
She always has this beautiful, happy, accepting smile.
I love you Lex. Your just straight bad ass.
-D from Seattle.
When Lex said that it wasn't loud enough, I felt that shit right in my soul!!!!
I swear Tom Arayas voice was created specifically to sing for this Band!! He's got such a iconic sound!! Its not just growling like today's metal!! Every trash band from the 80s had their owns sounds!!!
You guys should react to…
Slayer - Seasons In The Abyss
🎸🤘
Toxic Waltz. Exodus. Great Pit song. Thrash Zone from DRI "Thrashard" Kind of songs you play with 100 people in a open space and watch the pit explode...
"Seasons in the Abyss" like others have said. Brad will "love" it too because it has a steady rhythm and a slower but heavy as hell guitar riff.
Just looking for this song didn't take long.
Just imagine... at the same time that Glam metal bands were taking over, thrash was also hatched with zero f's given. Not to mention the European New wave/pop movement. Rap was being born as well.. The 80's had so many genres that were essentially exploding and thriving simultaneously. There will never be another decade like it. Love your reactions!
More from this album please ,
take your pick they won't miss.
Slayer loves cats (search slayer kitten) lead guitarist Kerry King, also played guitar for the Beastie Boys 1st album
Kerry also raises snakes.
This album from beginning to end is my favorite metal album...
I’ve seen Slayer 3x in my lifetime and they have NEVER disappointed. Keep up the great work guys. 🤘🏼
You should do Chopped In Half by Obituary :)
Yes! Anything off that album. Top 5 albums of all time.
That drum break at 2 : 5 8 gives me goosebumps every time I hear it... never gets old
Damn Right Girl !!! IT MUST BE LOUD.
As KISS said " If it's too loud, you're to old"
When you can feel the double bass drums kick you in the chest, you know it's almost loud enough.
Also, finally found a reaction channel who actually likes Slayer (other than the adventures of TNT) Every other channel just reacts to Raining Blood and never do any other songs from them lol
True. Raining blood, Angel of death, war ensemble, South of heaven. Those are about the only songs most reacters do. When there is such a huge catalog to choose from.
Well Lex is into it, Brad not so much lmao!
This era of Slayer was hard to beat. Fuckin' KINGS. R.I.P. Jeff.
The perfect song to listen to at full volume while jumping a 97 toyota tercel 300 feet into a corn field.
Slayer is my favorite band and I've seen more than 10x and I got chills everytime they would come on stage. The atmosphere at their live shows is like no other.
If I may be so bold, "Hell Awaits" is a massively under appreciated song. Especially live.
Hell awaits is my favorite Slayer album. At Dawn They Sleep, He’ll Awaits, Kill Again, Crypts of Eternity. All so good!
Tbh that whole entire album is under appreciated and overlooked. It’s so good
I love this woman!
Lexi you are beyond awesome. Keep being you no matter what. Your charisma is contagious and I'm sure you're destined for great things!!
Some of my favorite reactors at the moment. Love your enthusiasm whether you like the music or not :)
Keep it up!!
seen slayer about 15x was always a gr8 show. glad to see you go down the rabbit hole.
Ive been waiting for this!!!! My favorite reaction channel❤️ keep up the hard work!!!👏🏽👏🏽
Brad's reaction is priceless.
Hip hop group Public Enemy have a song called "She watch channel zero" which features a Slayer guitar riff. I think you'd like it. It has good lyrics from Brad to ponder and enough aggression to satisfy Lex.
They also did Bring the Noize with Anthrax
I saw Slayer throughout the years about 8 times and twice on the farewell tour . Tom's voice was always on man , always !!
I'm partial to Dittohead myself, off the Divine Intervention album. Prime grade thrash with a pinch of punk. :)
"I wish it could be louder"
He'll yeah Lex. I've listened to this song and many other slayer songs on VERY loud car systems. It is never loud enough!
Rock on you guys!
And those SPIKES are 100 % REAL! Touched them personally meeting the band after a concert in 1991in Munich!
Rip Jeff. Awesome partystarter-song. One of the greatest metalbands to EVER roam this earth.
I don’t always listen to Slayer. But when I do, so do my neighbors
Hell yes WAR ENSEMBLE! One of my favorite Slayer songs, they should check out Silent Scream next.
You gotta do Seasons in the abyss (you'll like this one), Skeletons of society, Angel of death (studio version), silent scream etc.
I was at that gig, my God Slayer are one of the best bands to see live.
The song is about the Total War speech Joseph Goebbels gave at the Berlin Sportpalast on Feb.18, 1943, after the fall of Stalingrad and the war starting to turn against Germany. That's why you hear the lyrics "Sport the War, War Suport Total War, Propaganda War Ensemble, etc.
She gets it. Thrash music is a very physical experience. It makes you want to BANG YOUR HEAD! Check out Exodus' Toxic Waltz which is about that :)
You mixed with Slayer is hilarious! Thank you for this
Seen Slayer twice, they play exactly like the studio recording when playing live. The most fun shows I have ever been to were Slayer shows. Dave Lombardo is one of my biggest influences for drum playing. The fills are always so sloppy but sound perfect for what music he plays
I'll disagree with the sloppy part though :)
yeah i noticed that myself, exactly like the albums.
@@Will_Wel I'm with ya!! If anyone had sloppy fills, it was Paul Bostaph!!
Dave Lombardo's fills are some of the most precise in all of metal. That's kinda his claim to fame. Far from sloppy.
@@Nightbreed82 agreed, also the godfather of double bass!
Slayer and all their songs about WWII 😆 This is the song that got me into them.
Thrash Metal song playing:
"It's not loud enough"
Yup. She is a keeper!!
Great reaction, y'all!
Brad is like an human metronome. He sways left to right no matter what song.
True!
because the couch throws him around via Lex
Notice the DK on his guitar represents political band Dead Kennedys, 80's hard punk.
This kind of music you have to turn way up. Yes. Dig the way the music made her smile. It really is cathartic music. It's like it just . . . channels all that negative stuff out, all that bad energy we all deal with, and these guys play it out so well. Makes ya feel good.
That spasmodic drum fill at 2:58 is absolute perfection!
Agree to Lex- Good thrash metal fills your batteries. If your'e down it gets you up, and if your'e up it gets you bouncing.'
This is one of my personal favourite from Slayer. First reaction so far that i´ve seen from it.
Lex, your a metal chic for sure! What the music does for you is what it does to everyone who loves metal!!!!!
Their first four albums are really their best, all good songs.
Your girl's smile enjoying the shit out of this all the way through is everything.
Lombardo was going off on the drums. Un fricking believable
They opened with this song when I dm first saw them playing. Killer gig
Yes Lex, thrash is very visceral.
I was waiting eagerly for you guys to react to this song. Love it! I had the privilege of seeing them twice in my life and they were one of the great bands to experience live.
Gran banda slayer! con un vocalista chileno y un baterista de cubano. Son un orgullo para Sudamérica!
Grande Slayer!
After watching you viewing all the bands I love it's come too my attention of just how many of my beloved musicians are dead. I always knew they were gone but you have assembled a literal crypt of those who have left us.
Lex is asking for the Slayer "War at the Warfield" concert DVD xD
Also, this track is about how war is becoming a trivial commonplace in mankind history, how we humans keep on repeating the same mistakes and sometimes even the same wars alerting listeners to the dangers of war by using historical war references as not to be taken lightly like if it was some videogame or tv show... I sometimes think about how war has almost become a popular game show in recent years. After the Gulf War, some people wanted to sit down and be entertained by the war on TV, we've seen this throughout the '90s and post 2000.
The unofficial theme of Operation Desert Storm
Surround Sound, the music all around you Lex...you need a PIT!
I'm not a big Slayer guy, I mean I like them, but Lex's comment was spot on. It's music you just have to turn up to appreciate it.
You're correct....The Louder the better! I seen this tour in Salem Oregon at the armory. Nothing compares to LIVE SLAYER.
Hell yeah.
Slayer - Hell Awaits live from decade of Aggression
"Guilty of being white"
you guys should listen to the south of heaven album in its entirety, it all flows beautifully from start to finish, great musical trip etc, then again so is the reign in blood album
Turn it up, LOUD AF. Yes maam, Ms Lex...thats the best way to experience it.
Saw this on the stream. Exactly right Lex, Slayer is best listened to very loud! I'm always telling Brad to just listen to the music, but if you're into lyrics, Slayer's are highly interesting and poetic. Maybe a lyric video next time :)
Slayer feckin kicks ass!!! It's great that you guys are so open minded about new music such as this. 👍
Nothing better than 'LIVE' SLAYER. SO LOUD!!!!
Seen Slayer 3 times back in the day, when Kerry King had the spiked armband and long hair. It worked me up crazy, got kicked out of every single one from stage diving! Lol! Didn’t regret any of it!
Classic. Love it !
I love how much Lex loves metal xD
Seeing her smile with her head bobbin' makes me happy.
RIP Jeff Hanneman.
I remember staying up late one Saturday Night in 1990 watching MTV'S Head bangers Ball at midnight. I had my headphones plugged into my little black and white tv I had so I wouldn't wake my parents. The effect this had on me can't be measured. You have to understand Nirvana and the grunge movement was a year away. This was still the era when Bon Jovi and Janet Jackson and Prince ruled TV and Radio. Hearing this was like peering into an entirely different universe. This was for a couple of years for me (funny enough until 1994 when Slayer put out their video for a song called "Dittohead") THE fastest song I had ever heard. Until I heard this I didn't know you could play this fast.
And it's not just RUclips capping the volume. I've been front row at a Slayer show and even then this song wasn't loud enough despite the my body vibrating into another dimension from the sound telling me otherwise.
She is so stoked. Brad is fascinated.
One of the Baddest Jams ever. Slayer!
Love Lex!!! I remember seeing Slayer at the Giant's stadium in New Jersey. They opened with this song ,and everyone started this HUGE pit! People were jumping from the seated areas down onto the general admission(field) area. And that is a 20 plus foot drop to the ground. And all the security guards were running after all the people that were rushing toward the HUGE pit! IT was total chaos! And remember, Sepultura, Sevendust and many others played before Slayer came on the stage. They didn't have 1/10th the pit Slayer started after the first two notes of this song! Epic!
The look on the faces of the security guards thinking wtf did we sign up for. 🤣 total war
@@kytziaf Yep! Tattoo the Earth Tour! It was the first time Slayer and Metallica shared the stage. The headliner was Slayer and Slipknot, every other night switching. That ONE night of the tour, there was Slayer, then Slipknot as the headliner. AND THEN one time only; Metallica closed out the Show! Best show I ever saw! And I have seen Slayer and Metallica many, many times. Oh and the security guiards running after the crowd of people, running into the pit, was total war. All you saw was people falling down like ants onto the ground, people helping each other get down by lowering them or jumping into a crowd of them that already made it onto the field. And all the security guards in bright yellow, running in every direction to stop them. They gave up about 15 seconds after the song started. there were too many Slayer fans!
@@DaytonaGrey-RS5 thats bad ass
@@kytziaf It was SOO sweet! Another Slayer story that I can share, was when Biohazard and Slayer were touring. Biohazard was really popular at the time, I wanna say 94-95. Biohazard was playing their first song, punishment, and then there sound board or something Shitted out on them and all you could here was the snare drum. All the vocals, and guitar amps dropped out. And after about 10 seconds of confusion, the whole crowd started chanting SLAYER! SLAYER! SLAYER!, And Biohazard did not play another song, I don't know if they could after that embarrassment. 20 some minutes later SLAYER started with Hell AWAITS! They played a two-hour show that night. It was SOO freakin' good! There whole encore was the entire album of Reign in Blood from Angel of Death through Reign in Blood. They played it just like the album, no breaks, Alter of sacrifice right into Jesus saves, everything was perfect! IT was tough!
@@DaytonaGrey-RS5 that would be a badass concert. LGB, FJB 🤣
I'm hear just 4 LEX she is so awesome...lost count how many times I have seen Slayer...love ur reactions \m/
This one of best opening tracks to an album ever.
That's why Slayer is great at work 🤘🏻
Ghosts of War! The first Slayer song I heard and will always be my favorite. Listen to the studio version for full affect, I haven't found good live recordings , I'm sure they are out there, but the studio version rips!
This music will melt your face and drop kick your ear drums.
This song brings back some good old memories. When my 20 year old was 4 this is the song he asked to be put on every time we got in the car. On top of the running around the house singing the chorus and freaking the wife out among others. LOL
This song is the best piece of commentary on exactly how disgusting war is.
"When victory's really massacre"
"The final swing is not a drill/
It's how many people I can kill"
"When victory's really survival"
A perfect definition.
The one and only Slayer...there will never be another. RIP Jeff
I was in high school when Seasons in the Abyss dropped and all the metal heads (including me) lost their fucking minds. Such a masterpiece of aggression and speed.
All Time Favorite Song and Album(SEASONS IN THE ABYSS)🤘
As much as Lex likes Slayer I cant believe you guys haven't done "Seasons In The Abyss"
Brad tries to see whats going on in the video and stays calm, Lex is the opposite, She headbangs! Proper!
Slayer was my soundtrack during my time in desert storm. Good song to motivate you during a war.
Great reaction, seen Slayer in 1988 on the south of heaven tour, really good live. Plenty more Slayer tracks to choose from :)
This is Slayer at their very best. Top five song from them for me. So aggressive, fast, great lyrics...relentless.
Next Silent Scream lyrics version...I think you guys are ready.
Their drummer Dave Lombardo was one of the best drummers in this style of Thrash metal. You can tell from the reactions she was impressed by his skillz. Dude was badass
And yes Thrash is energetic type of music, which is why you see so many kids going wild when they play live. Its hard to top the kind of energy these bands had. Live is even craazier.
Glad you guys chose this one to react to.
It's pretty cool you're watching so much old Stuff! Not just the fame Videos from Jinjer, Slaughter to Prevail or Lorna Shore...
Yes, when you see them live, it hurts your guts.
Best. Band. Ever!
I love Lex listening thrash metal, she enjoys a lot.
