Greatest thrash album ever!!!

hell awaits is the best slayer album, its that good, its almost as good as darkness descends!!!!!

Someone has never listened to Show No Mercy while drinking lots of mead! (or perhaps you have)

But yeah, Hell Awaits is mighty - I would rank it above Darkness Descends I think.

Slayer, blah blah blah. Yeah. Ok what hahaha, oh my. Yes why not etc.

hah i got a Slayer box-set thing that was meant to be about £50. It was labeled up wrong on Zavvi for £6 so i went to try n buy it and now i have it here and its not that good. Well the CD with demos on and old shgit is pretty good, and the DVD also.

Well... there's nowt gayer than Slayer...

Stop talking like someone who gives presentations.

Slayer are the only metal band that I literally can't turn my back on. All the others I've got over and turned my back on, however, I literally cannot not like Slayer. They're fucking mint.

They're really not.

Yeah, he's not amazing but they're nowhere near as bad. At least there is a modicum of fluidity to Jeff's.

OK, let me put it this way, Jeff's solos are also shite. Maybe it was a bit too much to say they're as bad as Kerry's but neither knows what they're actually doing. I wish they'd just left the solos off a lot of songs.

That album cover is so gay. A Chippendale in goat-overlord costume. Pathetic.

Napalm Death?

Napalm Death don't count, they're just brilliant anyway, whereas loads of thrash metal is completely laughable and stupid.

Sorted.

Seriously Iain, are you on Def Leppard commision or something? You should offer to square go Rikki Rocket and Bret Michaels on Joe's behalf
