Thank you.
I get shit all the time for "not understanding the genius of Zep".
I "understand" fine, some terrific songs spread throughout a catalogue of albums crammed with filler, rip offs of old blues songs and rip offs of contemporary bands too.
The "genius" of Zep?
Gimme the first ten Sabbath albums over them every time.

:? What?How someone can not love Show No Mercy at least.That is beyond to me...except if you don't like Speed/Thrash.

Anyway i always loved SLAYER mainly until ''Seasons In The Abyss''.Divine Intervetion is good but in my opinion the songs don't have so much meaning/little boring.

In my opinion SLAYER and SAVATAGE were the best US bands(created mostly by Non-Americans 8) )
I read in a magazine yesterday that Slayer has won a Grammy award and that they were happy to be part of the music industry :? Has the music industry finally seen the brilliance of Show No Mercy, Haunting The Chapel and Hell Awaits or does Kerry has a bigger hole now?

Found a photo :lol:

I don't think it is the first time they win Grammys,nominations,participations or so.Anyway don't get deceived.Even NIFELHEIM were candidate for prize in Sweden if i am not mistaken.

Even if they become like Madonna the fact doesn't change that they have 6 killer LP's(Until Seasons).

Show No Mercy, Haunting The Chapel and Hell Awaits are godlike and among the best metal records ever recorded. Reign In Blood is good but totally overrated and the rest is pure crap.


(Divine Intervention has some decent songs)

Eh? I'm sure araya and lombardo consider themselves americans and they seem to be the only ones who are "non american" out of both bands.

They all wore suits in the "Bloodline" video, i was disappointed KK hadn't customised his with nails & spikes, but it still looked pretty cool when the blood started pouring down on them.

I already said Lombardo and Araya could be considered "non Americans" but the Oliva brothers were born in America where do you drawl the line?

not that I have anything against that, I still cannot decide whether this suits him or not, certainly it is a bow to the showbiz rules. I remember similar pic of 'tallica 16 years ago. *cringes at last

oh yes, Slayer also! Quite overrated and most importantly the choice metal band of idiots worldwide. With this I don't mean that only idiots listen to them, I mean that if an idiot decides he's going to listen to one metal band, chances are it'll be Slayer!
