      Tom had no taste or sense for the genre apparently but ended up being perfect for Slayer and is one of the best metal singers ever. Similarl to Joey Belladonna, who was a Steve Perry listening dude who wasn’t into metal at all.

    The big 4
    Slayer - Heaviest
    Metallica - Most Melodic
    Megadeth - Most technical
    Anthrax - Most Experimental
    Whether you like one or hate the other three they all are amazing metal bands. (My fav is Slayer)

    • @BAlvn-yr6ej
      @BAlvn-yr6ej Před 6 lety +2

      Metallica was really more technical than Megadeth...listen to "the black album" on about 3 hits of acid sometime and you will recognize their incredible depth and talent. No, I don't like all their stuff, but they have immense talent.

    • @Whocareswins17

    • @BAlvn-yr6ej
      @BAlvn-yr6ej Před 6 lety +2

      me too...its been a long time since i had some. but when i get some, the black album will be the first thing i listen to...after that, "are you experienced" and then "dark side of the moon" followed by "fly by night" by Rush, and maybe (if i can still crawl over to the record player) some early Sabbath....Paranoid is a great acid album. man, do i miss those days (the days i had a regular supply of LSD....... Legalize it.

    • @Whocareswins17
      @Whocareswins17 Před 6 lety +2

      B. Alvn I'm more into Dog Fashion Disco and Eagles Of Death Metal when I trip. But Rush....yeah, I like Rush. 2112 and Fly By Night. Owwwww!

    • @BAlvn-yr6ej
      @BAlvn-yr6ej Před 6 lety

      oh yes, 2112 was a great LP, and Caress of Steel, and Moving Pictures was also excellent...and the first album...i pretty much like all their stuff up to Grace Under Pressure, but after that I lost interest and they got too "artsy" in my opinion...I saw them 3 or 4 times in the 80s...a little late but they did play a fair amount of their earlier catalog in the shows still. They are a great live band. Ever seen them?
      I've never heard of Dog Fashion Disco...what songs or albums would you recommend?

  • @andrewbecker3700

Fuck that shit, the man could not keep them down. If you know metal, you know who Slayer is. No matter if you like them or not. \m/

  • @kencoakley3959

    The first time I saw Slayer was 12/6/86 ar The Channel in South Boston the last time I saw them was in 1991 at the same venue and saw them countless times in between. And one constant in those yeats that still remains today is the loyalty of the fans. I remember in 1987 I went to see local (Boston) band Wargasm. In between Meliah Rage and Wargasm's set the DJ played "Angel Of Death". When the song started everybody was slam dancing. Mid way through the song I felt a force hit me in my jaw and I hit the ground. A couple of kids pulled me out. I thought it was overzealous fans hitting me accidentally. It turns out that I was sucker punched by a bouncer. All the slamdancers started to charge against the bouncers because of what happened to me.
    I haven't seen Slayer live in 30 years and I regret that there was a Slayer farewell tour and that I didn't go to pay my final respects, to show some gratitude for all the great music over the years.

Like Dave Lombardo almost caught Kerry King watering his moms flowerbed or something. Like "Get outta here, Dave, I'm doing metal shit." Just all curt and defensive like Kerry gets. "Why you driving by my house, you gay or something? You wanna be my boyfriend?" Dave's like "god damn". lol I dunno. I dunno where I'm going with this.

    The early days would be early 80s (they formed in 1981). First three albums were mind-blowingly heavy and intense: Show No Mercy, Hell Awaits, Reign in Blood. I know they did several after that but for me those first there are their best, and also among the best dozen metal/thrash albums of all time.
