Slayer

Hey guys. I'm really new to this. I just wanted to say hello and my name is Nick Does anyone know when the next Slayer CD is coming out? I'm a huuuuge Slayer fan. Thanks!!

I think they have an EP pretty much recorded already. Shouldn't be too long.

Sweet. Thanks

Just Collect all the albums up to "Divine Intervention"... forget the rest, they haven't done a single memorable song since 'Seasons in d Abyss', that's like what, almost two decades now

My dad and I have collected all of them. They're badass.

Wow! such a cool Dad you have

BTW welcome to the forum

I know right! He got me into it when I was 11. The first song I fell in love with was Dead Skin Mask

Thank you for the welcoming

I second this "pffftttt."

C'mon people don't kid yourselves

"Divine Intervention" was passably OK

then the rest were just non-stop monotonous Araya shouting

I heard about the EP.

I enjoyed World Painted Blood, which is their best since Divine Intervention. The title track, Unit 731, and Hate Worldwide are all awesome songs.

But... that's... what Araya does.

You've obviously never listened to their albums since Divine Intervention.

my favorite Slayer song from recent years...

Great tune. I also love "Jihad" from that album and the bonus track "Final Six".

I like all their albums except GHUA and HtC. The rest range from pretty good to amazing.

What is it you don't like about Haunting the Chapel?

Any of the riffs, songs, or drumming.

Hell Awaits is one of my favorite thrash albums, everything is perfect on that one in my opinion

Show No Mercy.

The rest of their discography I don't care for.

Haunting The Chapel is an awesome EP. Chemical Warfare is a thrash classic and the song that made me a Slayer fan in the first place, Lombardo just blew me away when I first heard that EP, I had to check and make sure the record was on the correct speed. Captor Of Sin is an awesome tune as well. HTC was the first Slayer I owned and is still a favorite to this day.

I know many people on this board love Show No Mercy (and it's a great debut) but they really started to discover their own sound on HTC and Hell Awaits.

I haven't really checked out some of the more recent Slayer releases, but I need to correct that.
