This is an excellent song full of amazing riffs. And to think Jeff Hanneman wrote every single riff in this entire song. Kerry's playing them here but Jeff wrote them all. (as well as writing Seasons in the Abyss and War Ensemble, my other two favourites from this album). A legendary guitarist and definitely the best guitarist in Slayer - RIP Jeff.
+Ian davis one of the fastest fucking and precisest guitar players. Most of these videos he's not even in touring shape. Live I can't even think about how incredible these guys are.
That man is so easy taking and fluent, and that's cool he shares his technique and actually the tab itself. Not keeping it under 7 lock like most of the other artists do.
He might say that, but if you watch his right hand you can see him alternate pick alot, it might just be that he wants to play some parts in all down picking cuz you get a different attack to the string doing that as opposed to up and down
@Chester1004 The most are. There are some in standard like Black Magic at leasts on the studio version, but they play it halfstepdown live as far as I know.
I 'met' him at music live in birmingham last year, and i can assure you this isn't just a friendly act, he is generally a very down to earth guy He just looks mental with all his tatts, and his beard =P
You could probably get the Slayer sound from an Ibanez Rg without messing with pickups and effects id say its the amp you use and the amp settings that would effect the sound more
![Slayer - Dead Skin Mask Live [download festival 2007]](/img/n.gif)
fantastic! simplicity and respect for the millions of fans the world. himself, teaching how to play one of their biggest hits. This guy is cool!
+Alberto Goncales super cool no bs type guy.
Down picking? Someone go wake up James.
Big respect
RIP legend..

First lesson I've watched by him. The dude is solid.
Once of the best metal riffs of all time. KFK!
What a master!
Kerry King & Glenn Tipton fuckin' rule... the gods of guitar.
Is it just me or is he playing super freaking fast??
+Ian davis one of the fastest fucking and precisest guitar players. Most of these videos he's not even in touring shape. Live I can't even think about how incredible these guys are.
Listen to War Ensemble if you think this is fast LOL
This is one of the better kerry king solos, really great song!
I fucking love the 2nd riff, one of the best by lord kerry
R.I.P Jeff :(
he's such an underrated player. that right hand is dangerous
That man is so easy taking and fluent, and that's cool he shares his technique and actually the tab itself. Not keeping it under 7 lock like most of the other artists do.
Slayer seems to be the only band who plays their songs like the tab shows it.
Hi, i'm Kerry King and now i'm gonna let you watch me playing DeadSkinMask
In my opinion, being one of the greatest metal guitarists for almost 30 years makes you cool enough to wear sun glasses inside or at night.
KERRY!!!! YOU ARE A METAL GOD!!!! I LOVE YA!!!! HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY TO YOU!!!
what a sound bloke. As down to earth as they come.
240p we meet again!

"...How fucking metal is that?"
He's hilarious!!! And he kicks ass!!!
He's just your neighbor who plays in a band that just so happens to be one of best in the world
He definately soudns like he want to be there.

Kerry is such a nice and cool guy, but he looks like a fuckin beast :D
You is the best!!! :)
Jajajajaja Hes The Man!!! The Best Riffer Ever For Me...=P
well thats cause he likes playing on that scale plus i mean whos complaining its fucking great music
He might say that, but if you watch his right hand you can see him alternate pick alot, it might just be that he wants to play some parts in all down picking cuz you get a different attack to the string doing that as opposed to up and down
that guitar is so fuckin' metal/brutal/awesome/ultimate
Dead Skin Mask is a song of Slayer, Hanneman had a Dead Skin Arm
been into these for 10 years and i know why he is fuckin ace
You'd get close, but not all the way there. It depends primarily on your amp - you'll want one with fat midrange to accomplish the Slayer tone.
Yeah, plus Jeff writes all of the music and helps write most of the lyrics
I'd like to see video of that concert if anyone knows if there is an upload anywhere.
Yeah the way he storms off stage sometimes, at least he comes back to finish the shows up though(Mustaine).
Always thought he was a great guitarist, now it seems like he's a cool guy too, Slayer fuckin rock ;)
Kerry King = EPIC winning
lol at the starting "the police did something like this"
He is a big BIG fan of Bc rich guitars.
@XxiMattxX its a marshall microstack, the haze is pretty recent
is it just the marshall he's gettin this typical slayer sound from?
evil whatever if its evil if it sounds good its good to me ...
@Chester1004
The most are. There are some in standard like Black Magic at leasts on the studio version, but they play it halfstepdown live as far as I know.

Can anybody say me how much the guitar is? I LOVE THIS AXE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! is it eve buyable?
This is the most evil song I've ever heard.
This guy looks bad ass.

4:34 *One try u like that shit* Bhahahahahahahaha that is so fricken epic man!!
Kerry rules.
kerry kicks ass rock on\ , , /

Then youve never heard of norwegian black metal and that shit, i love it, enslaved, mayhem, theyre really good.
