Tom Araya on the stage: 👺💀☠️
Tom Araya in real life: 😂🌞🌸
Kind of works, doesn't it? Maybe that helped him hang onto his abused larynx this whole time.
It's incredible he screamed his lungs off live for _decades_ and didn't lose his voice. His falsetto screams even became _more_ twisted and insane near the end of the band!
Why you had to out those emojis ;(
LOOOOOOOOOOL!!!!!!!
@@damf5488 they’re just emojis :/
He actually uses a mixture of those on stage lol
Them: "Metal is so violent!!"
Tom Araya: "You calling me a horse?" *Intense laughing ensues*
Hahahahahehehaheheheha
Hear it from the horse’s mouth
Tom Araya: HEEHHHEHHEHEHEHHE
Grandpa mode intensifies.
It was such a silly joke but I actually cracked up when he said it, there's just something so charming about him 😂
Metallica: The popular kids
Megadeth: The smart, if slightly unstable kids
Anthrax: Class clown
Slayer: The Short tempered kids with great sense of humor
How**
Anthrax is the kid who’s popular with the other popular kids but no one else likes. Anthrax is shit sorry not sorry
Word. Anthrax lives in the Shadow of Megadeth and Slayer.
@@loganclippinger7126 Well, to be fair, out of the big 4 of thrash i found Anthrax to be... the least appealing
anthrax and slayer are the only ones i listen to. megadeth is shit and talica suck balls now
Tom Araya, the voice behind the nightmarish music of Slayer, is just a ball of happiness.
Damn!
"I get a little upset and angry sometimes, but I never let it affect my smile" What an absolute attitude to have
My heart melted at that line
What a dude! (With a Beautiful smile)
He’s a majestic creature. I love him and his laugh so much. It was truly emotional when I saw them the for the last time on their (2nd) farewell tour.
@Frank Wilson that must have been a hell of a feeling.

I've yet to see a mean metal singer, singing metal singer doesn't make one angry cause they express all anger in songs.

Tom reminds me of that cool uncle who let's you do cool shit but tell yous, "Don't tell your mother".
Michael Albright or grandfather
"Kiss one another"
Ahahahaha! Spot on!
The kind of Uncle to hand you a Pantera, Metallica, or even Slayer album, give you smokes or beers, rolling papers or whatever. The kind of Uncle you just couldn't wait to see
Hell yeah
I'm not a psychologist and there might be a study or analysis somewhere. But why is some the darkest music written by the some of the happiest and funniest people on earth? Not just Tom and Slayer. I've seen this in countless other bands over the years.
Other examples are almost all grunge bands, a shit ton of thrash bands (indeed) and Black Sabbath. I think you are totally right my man.
@Mike O’Brien @Joris Tolhuijs
I am pretty sure this applies to all metal subgenres (certain things like the church burnings of the 2nd wave of black metal in the 90’s are exceptions, not the rule).
Because writing, singing and screaming about fucked up shit at the beat of really fast and aggressive music is an excellent way of letting off steam. It's cathartic. Paul Mazurkiewicz is one of the chillest guys you'll know in metal, and he is CC's main lyricist. The 90s black metal scene is the exception rather than the rule, tho. Those guys were whackjobs who bought their own hype.
@@branlopgar Agreed.
Nice calm people usually hold all that anger well packed within themselves and sometimes they just crack screaming into a pillow or whoever pushed the correct buttons. Others can extract them at will for poetry or songwriting.
Imagine being 14 or 15 and taking a leave of absence from school...... to TOUR EUROPE WITH SLAYER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Imagine if Angel of Death came out in 2021. These guys would have been shamed on Twitter and cancelled before even thinking about getting a record deal. We're all very fortunate to have gotten to experience Slayer before fake social media activism was a thing.
I don't think so. if their brains didn't melt from the intro, Tom and Kerry would kill them with kindness.
Yeah im agree!!🤘 Too much fucking politicly correct these days...peoples are so snoflakes
@@fredbernier1972 I don't think angel of death would be cancelled since so much people are used to violent lyrics from metal culture now. On the otherhand, at the time Angel of Death already was the source of lots and lots of controversies.
What do you mean? Death metal with much more gruesome names and themes come out all the time. They don't get 'canceled' it's just generally not as popular
There’s quite a few Slayer songs that are more relevant today than they ever have been.

I love how Tom Araya comes across as hateful and angry in Slayer's music, but when you hear him talk he is a very happy and nice guy.
+Prince Daniel Indeed, slayer is fucking angry and tom in an interview is a nice funny, happy grandpa.
+Prince Daniel That's because the lyrics are angry and he can't sing them in a happy fashion.
+Hellwyck I think he means bubbly happy people like Tom are the last thing you'd expect when you hear Slayer's music.
+Hellwyck Search for "Angel of Death Radio Disney" to prove you wrong... ;)

That's a nasty assumption to make about metalheads.
Thomas Abts
No, I don't think I want to.
He completely ignored the “did you get chicks?” question, wearing a shirt about his wife. This man is a legend.
He loves and respects his wife and family! That is tremendous!
He asked if his brother, being 13, got any chicks. “Did he get any chicks?” “Yeah but you know that changes you..”
@TrashPanda Raccoon Does that hurt your feelings?
@TrashPanda Raccoon You're determining if people are "metal" or not out of their vocabulary and political views? Haha, fuck off conformist.
@TrashPanda Raccoon grow up?
He's in one of the most well known metal bands in forever, and he's still surprised that people had been asking for him... Stay humble, man.
I love how un-satanic, un-angry, and how happy he is 😂 what a wholesome dude! Shame I missed the train for these guys though. I know I’m a loser for that, but hey, a trip down memory lane for you guys is all kinds of fun and adventure for me
Dude. Slayer is pretty huge now. But I can remember going into local dives to watch them play. Little bars and stuff like that. They were intense, man. A lot of places would have a walkway in front of the stage lined with chain link fencing where security would stand, but I can remember seeing them from the foot of the stage close enough to untie their shoes. And the energy was unbelievable. Hell... The energy is intense in a 30,000 seat arena. Imagine that same energy in a bar that you can barely pack 150 people into. And Slayer was 25-30 years younger back then. And they were friggen loud. And they really amped up the Evil. They had a reputation they were building. And, yes. You did occasionally get the feeling that you just might not make it out of there alive.
Dude that was awesome 🤙
"Did you get laid"
*totally ignores the question while wearing a shirt about his wife*
I like how Tom is heavy as balls. yet still wears sarcastic Walmart t-shirts.

One of the coolest guys ever!!! I love his sense of humor big time. Up on the stage he is aggressive and brutal, but off the stage he is a happy guy that loves to laugh. Tom is a very good storyteller. Now that Slayer has officially ended, it would be the perfect time for Tom to write a book about all of Slayer's career. I would definitely buy it.
My guidance counselor in 7th grade urged me to stop listening to, "those angry satanists in slayer" before I ended up just like them. Turns out he was right, I never stopped listening and grew up to be a teddy bear with a beard too.
Funny story. I once looked up the song "I Hate Myself and Want To Die" by Nirvana on the school computer and my school counselor told me I should stop listening to Nirvana because it was "depressing and makes you feel down". Fuck that shit.
Willy Beamish haha little man angry
@@geoffok No shit. He's Catholic.
I briefly went to a private Christian school, which to me made NO sense considering I had been raised Roman-Catholic, when I say briefly I mean I wasn't even in the school for 3 months total. So every morning before classes would start we would go to homeroom, do the head count, and then all of us shuffle into the church connected to the school. Well one morning the sermon was about the devil's influence in music, specifically targeting "rock & roll" being the devil's music. So I'm sitting there with my friend barely paying attention at all tbh with you when the pastor suddenly specifically starts going on and on about Twisted Sister, who just so happened to be my favorite band at the time(1st album I ever bought with my very own $ from doing chores around the house was Stay Hungry). So I let him rant & rave for a good 5 minutes or so about the band and then I simply could NOT take anymore of it, so I stood up IN CHURCH and started yelling that he didn't know what he was talking about, that NONE of their lyrics are satanic(hell, if they were then my father wouldn't have allowed it in the house...although my dad IS to this day what you'd call an old school hippie). My "outburst" in church resulted in me being dragged out of the chapel to the headmasters office by 2 mins and one big rotund girl who was a goody-goody brown-noser, yeah you know the type. I was suspended from school for a week, that same day when my dad picked me up on the drive home he asked me "Lenise, what was that all about, why did you flip out the way you did yelling at a holy man?". So I honestly told him, my father raised me to be an honest person and to stand up for what I believe in. Needless to say, he couldn't even argue with me about that and pulled me out of the school before my suspension was up. He told me that his decision to pull me out of that school wasn't only about what had happened that morning in church but about his beliefs that children and teenagers should be allowed, to an extent of course, grow creatively into who they are going to become as adults and the school was so restricting. They even banned certain books of classic art from the library because "they" believed that the artwork was pornographic. In hindsight it seemed like a cult in the making and as far as I know the school doesn't even exist anymore, which has to say something about the place.
@John Volken, so,as a Pagen, you're not Christian sympathizer,but a sympathizer of insecure White dudes with little clocks! Good to know🤗🤗
I wanna take him out for a few beers. he just seems so fun.

Rest in peace Jeff. I'm 45yro and I grew up with Slayer. It breaks my heart seeing the band get older and members PHAWKING dying. Slayer, old Metallica before the Black album, Anthrax, Megadeth, Pantera. Best metal bands ever. Long live SLAYER Long live Rick Rubin

Lol. Blows me away that there's so much aggression and anger in Slayer's music, but this dude is such a cool down to earth nice guy. Ahh the Duality of Metalheads
Thats the beauty of being in a metal band, most people walk around with built up anger that they feel they can do nothing about, while metal musicians get to release all their anger when they record and perform.
That's just the literal effect of metal music. It's an avenue to vent and not harbor unhealthy attitudes. One of the many, many reasons I love metal music so much
Look at Nergal or Gaahl, they seem pretty cool. Gaahl isnt if you fuck with him a lot but he was chill in that really shitty Vice documentary.

@Ryder Whillans You'RE
Tom Araya really changed my perspective on the band in general. Back then, I used to think both him and Slayer were evil satanic demons from Hell who hated life and wanted to burn the Earth down with fire and hate. Then I saw this video and after seeing how normal and funny he is, it completely blew me away. Like Hollywood, Slayer's imagery and music was just for show...in a good way.

I met Tom at a NAMM show in Atlanta in the late 80's, and then got to hang out back stage with him at a concert in Daytona Beach. He is one of the nicest people in metal that you could meet. He is nothing like what you see on stage. A class act.
