Kerry doesn’t need to flatter metallica by saying they are “hard-headed dudes”. Even if they made a metal album this time (what is good for all heavy metal fans) they’re still a sell-out vain whores.

I think people are missing the point – Slayer aren’t getting a slagging. It’s just that their last three studio albums haven’t heralded anything worthy of sheer greatness. An under-par Slayer album still beats the crap out of anything else around. Just because someone doesn’t like one album compared to another doesn’t make them a Fightstar fan. Oh yes, Vazzer, Slayer are not the Staus Quo of thrash – yet. I still believe that Slayer could produce another classic that sets the standard. I compared them to the Quo as the Quo are really a ‘greatest hits’ band, as no one really cares about new stuff. Not true of Slayer, methinks.

Slayer (like Metallcia) have yet to release an true ‘classic’ album since the early 90s but they HAVE(like Metallica) released some damn fine albums with some excellent songs on them. Have some faith all ye Metallians.

I’ve had Christ Illusion on my stereo for 3 weeks solid again and you fucking ignorant bastards need to listen to it and all the other albums as well (and open your fucking ears this time) as ‘Seasons…’
again and anyway Chris Ward, Slayer ARE the ’status quo’ of thrash-everyone has to live up to them. All Hail Slayer…..come back to the UK pleeeeease to promote your new -bound to be awesome- album.

Is it just me, or is CD release of Seasons in the Abyss the quietest album in existence? Anyone else notice that?

‘Seasons’ was a great album but I personally thought the production was a bit thin. ‘God Hates Us All’ is the only album post-Seasons that had more than two songs on it that could be called excellent. ‘Christ Illusion’ and ‘Diabolos in Musica’ were both treading water and ‘Divine Intervention’ was just good but not great. Slayer are a fucking excellent band but they seem to have rested on their laurels recently so I hope the new album will be something special – I don’t want them to turn into the Status Quo of Thrash Metal.
