SLAYER

Release Year: 1988
Artist Origin: USA
Style: evil extreme violent thrash metal

none other debuting record of ambitious and savage metal has caused such a spontaneous and reinless reaction as the first studio recording of Slayer [1983], disarming both the hungry metalhads, craving for as heavy, fast and extreme sound as possible, and also colleagues around, displaying which direction the just born speed/thrash metal genre must eventually follow; their own dangerous stylistics were actually just forming and developing as well, while obvious Venom influence has caused mystical, blackened sound and ultimately provoking, infernal, devilish lyrical approach, while Tom Araya's hysterical vocals intensified the abyssal mood, establishing a benchmark for aggressive expression for decades to come; deluxe authentic British gatefold sleeve double black 45rpm vinyl edition comes with Aggressive Perfector and Chemical Warfare bonuses plus A3 sized poster
