I feel for him losing his hair so young. It’s easy to laugh it off but it is hard to deal with for some young fellas. What’s cool for KK specifically is that he looks so much cooler after he cut it to create what is an iconic Slayer look & appears to have never given a F. He’s always been completely anti-poser & this just showed he walks the walk too. My respect will always stand with him, Jeff, Tom & Dave.
I wouldn't take to much notice of this video, too many mistakes, for instance he didn't start wearing those stupid green framed glasses until 1990 not 1988.
I have a incurable desease in my skin so I got lots of deandrum in my hair and in order to prevent that and make the cleaning simple I shave my head every month. All my friend had long hair when they were young, Kerry did, but not me. It's even worse than being bald because I also got these red things all over my face every once in a while. I'd trade all the hair in my head for normal skin every day.
Ya man my part in the middle started to part more and more and then the long hair i had was looking like shit! Now i sport a WWII type German soldier/sailor high and tight…looks good with thin hair on top.. I’m glad I’m not completely bald on top like the bozo or Ben Franklin look , i did try the chrome dome look for a while it was a pain in the ass shaving every nite so i grew some back.. we just have to suck it up and live with it…maybe one day someone will find the cure but we will probably be long dead 💀🤘🏻🤘🏻
I read a interview in guitar player magazine in 1992 that Kerry said he basically faked his way though the first 4 albums...even he thought he kinda blew until season in the abyss...
Man, that morphing thing is so weird in slow motion like that but I was mesmerized and watched the whole video! I have all those CD's and did have many on vinyl but I sold all those. You didn't mention at the end that he signed to Dean guitars and says he has enough material for 5 albums!
Ale you nailed it man!!!! Thanks so much for this. You did a fantastic job capturing and giving tribute to a true living legend. Hey is Kerry sponsored by Oakley ? He should be😊 Loved the progression of the late 80’s sunglasses into the 2000’s . Brought back a lot of memories. Thanks again for your dedication and time putting this together man
Awesome!! There were some confusion/mistakes with pictures between 1988 and 1990/1991, but the final result was outstanding, anyway!! Congratulations 👺
xD Weil er ein unsympathischer poser ist?? Fast alle grossen Slayer Songs+Alben wurden von Hannemann geschrieben!! Er war der grosse Erfolg von Slayer, mit Tom!!
@@benjaminkottmann7381 Kerry ist auch ein sehr guter Gitarrist und halt der Blickfang bei jeder Live-Show, die ich bis jetzt von SLAYER gesehen habe. Vor Jeff Hanneman und seinem Schaffen habe ich jedoch genau so großen Respekt.

Kerry 'burger' king? Jeff wrote most of these classics for him. Tom wrote about psychology and hate, Jeff about war and death, Kerry wrote about ghosts and spiders. Should have grown up like his buddies did, before kicking Dave out and leaving Jeff to die. Tom realises that now but too late. So it goes.
From Kerry King, to If Jim Morrison Was A Metalhead, to Jack Black, and then Baldi's Metalheaded Uncle for the rest of his iife. Or Big Show if you want.
You can tell when Slayer started making the real rockstar money,,, KRK got on the HGH and TRT therapy and beefed up. No faulting him, I’d be doing too at our age if I could drop the $$$$ for the therapy cycles.
@@ericmccoy5038 Short people live longer than tall people and their bodies break down more slowly than tall people, so the joke is on you if you're a tall person.

You know the feeling when adrenaline takes control can’t beat the rush that leave a suicidal hold. Instinct spares no one destroy the human heart the taste of blood will rip your soul apart.
@impishDCfan85 85 BS technically speaking they were almost identical in their playing. Kerry wrote a lot of great songs too. Maybe not the most well known , but you must know only a couple of hits
@@sutiszorny8039 Yeah, right? I watched part of one; unfortunately the audio was pretty crap. Wish someone would have considered making a legit recording for posterity. Lots of stuff back in those days is like that. Would love to hear a legit recording of the Metallica members' hardcore crossover side project Spastic Children, but all that exists is garbled crap. It's funny, because most other underground groups did get decent recordings of at least some stuff. I guess it is a testament to their punk rock legitimacy.
Without a doubt Kerry King is a great guitarist within Metal, he has composed great riffs such as Black Magic, Hell Awaits, Skeletons of Society, Dittohead, Cult, etc. Divine intervention, God hates us all and Christ Illusion. He is the one who always starts the songs with his characteristic riffs, it could be said that he leads the rhythmic parts in all the songs and is a very solid composer. Those detractors who question him behind a screen sitting without playing a guitar in his life, have done nothing to overcome him or do something that matches what he did throughout his career. Hold on Slayer and Kerry King!
La evolución de Kerry King. Quedarse con más ganancias en Slayer, ser corruptos con el manager y cagarse a toda la banda... Ah! Olvide lo de sacar a Lombardo, el mejor baterista del mundo.
Sorry about the audio at 3:21.
Kerry King - God of War
I thought it sounded like that
@@unclealik7420 is
Your everywhere lol
Who else was just waiting for when he went bald
Only reason I'm here.
I think everyone 😅😅
Everyone i guess
shortly after Metallica chopped off their locks
It’s tough to start thinning in your mid 20’s especially when you’re in the leading thrash band......I feel for that one...really tough.
1994: lost his hair
1998: grew it back on his chin
2003: wore sunglasses forever after that
LOL 2003
1988 at minute 1:04 - WTF Are those sunglasses?? 😂😂😂😂
@@WhoisVinnie in 2004 it look like he grew his hair out a lil bit. Lol
Sucks when you have long hair growing up so of course you gotta start going bald before it even changes color.

Jeff would call him baldy
@@davidlittlefield1098 if you were bald in the metal community you would get a nick name. Scott Ian was often called Baldini by Dimebag
He's been head banging so long and so hard his neck is just one solid muscle now
HA!
I clicked on this video just to know when did he lost his hair.
Hairloss hit right when the 90s did, he kept it going till 93.
He lost his hair with his intelligence
Same with me😅

I never realised Kerry looked so much like the Stiffmeister in the 80's.

I empathize with bald people so bad, because I am one. Noticing your hair disappearing is traumatizing.
I have a incurable desease in my skin so I got lots of deandrum in my hair and in order to prevent that and make the cleaning simple I shave my head every month.

It’s ok buddy, “God only created a few perfect people, the rest he covered with hair”…😁

Grandpa told me "you cant grow grass on a busy road". But he also said "they dont put marble tops on cheap furniture"...so take your pick 😂
I'm grateful I'm bald. Hair is a pita
You can see his hair started to get thin around 1985, but it was 1988 when it reached a brutal level.
Can't wait till Kerry starts up a new band. Rest easy Jeff.
Fuck man I know..
Me too
I love how most people in the world age overtime, while kerry hasn't changed since 2001. Also, why do so many people hate him?
in 81 he was just 16 or 17 when they started. he became a good guitarist at a very young age
I read a interview in guitar player magazine in 1992 that Kerry said he basically faked his way though the first 4 albums...even he thought he kinda blew until season in the abyss...
@@Bangingyourmom What do you mean he faked his way?
You could've literally used the same pic from '99 on and no one would know the difference.
Slayer is like an addiction.
Man, that morphing thing is so weird in slow motion like that but I was mesmerized and watched the whole video!
I have all those CD's and did have many on vinyl but I sold all those.
You didn't mention at the end that he signed to Dean guitars and says he has enough material for 5 albums!

And all these years later, there still is no real cure for baldness.
Well it costs money but solutions do exist. And i'm pretty sure that a man like Kerry King got enough bucks to solve that problem :)
Search for Antonio Conte or Francesco Facchinetti, before and after
@@carl13220 perhaps he prefers his baldness

Hoping they get bored and announce a reunion tour lol

Love the early 90's look
Fucking epic career. Saw them 2019 Sacramento. What a treat. Fuckin slayer!!!
Awesome job
Kerry also played Megadeth's first few shows then did Slayer full time.
Right, the live set is on YT... but this video did mention that right after Show No Mercy, before Hell Awaits
He’s actually aged pretty well! A lot better than I have!!😂
Hell I'm 47 and I have all my hair and yet he has aged very graciously for Bald or not.😎

Kerry king looks like one scary ass dude but he's the nicest guy ever. Watch his fact or fiction interview on Loudwire. Nice guy
Siempre super masculino, guapisimos todos, tienen mucho,"" cerebro, talento," son la crema de la crema.
It was a weird time for the band when King was replaced with WWF superstar Macho Man Randy Savage. "Are you ready for war?"
"OOOHH YEEEEAH!!!" 😆😆😆
