Best song off of Slayer's "Reign In Blood"

[Beware the Beast Man]

Bow down before the greatest metal album of all-time...

[proud patriot]

1. I never did like Slayer

not to keen on that style of singing .

[Beware the Beast Man]

2. Singing?

More like growling, with the occasional banshee scream. Man, Slayer rules!

[redqueen]

3. Either Angel of Death

or Raining Blood.

Not sure which to vote for...


on edit I picked Raining Blood because my b/f at the time didn't play it to death like he did with AoD. :)

[Lenape85]

7. Trapped in purgatory...

...A lifeless object, alive
Awaiting reprisal
Death will be their acquisition

The sky is turning red
Return to power draws near
Fall into me, the sky's crimson tears
Abolish the rules made of stone

Pierced from below, souls of my treacherous past
Betrayed by many, now ornaments dripping above

Awaiting the hour of reprisal
Your time slips away

Raining blood
From a lacerated sky
Bleeding its horror
Creating my structure
Now I shall reign in blood

[redqueen]

10. I had the most amazing dream about that song.

Not many dreams stick with me for decades, but that one sure did!

[vi5]

4. Sweet Lavay's Ghost is that an incredible record....

It sounds just as good today to these ears as when it first came out.

I picked Piece By Piece by the way, but the whole album is just top dollar and needs to be listened to straight through.

5. South of Heaven was better....

except for that Pro-life song. That was kind of lame.

[Lenape85]

8. Which one's the Pro-life song

[Beware the Beast Man]

9. I think he's referring to "Silent Scream"

Which I guess could be construed as pro-life...

[dolo amber]

6. I like the crackly one at the end

[ChavezSpeakstheTruth]

11. I say Epidemic - it's what Metallica would have sounded like had they

never lost Cliff

[Fleurs du Mal]

12. Angel of Death aka Alberto Gonzales

Damn good album.

[Lenape85]

13. I can't believe those stupid Nazis idolized Slayer

I mean, Tom Araya was hispanic and Kerry King was Jewish

[Lilith Velkor]

14. Funeral held for the depression of man

Holds the key to his own death
Entering a tomb of a corpse yet conceived
Tighten the tourniquet around your neck

Sifting away the debris of hated life
Cold touch of death begins to chill your spine
Seeking life beyond your perishment
Repeating words echoing through your mind

Chanting lines of blind witchery
To save yourself from extinction
Wanting to die is your reason to live
New life born from the oppressed

Taste your blood as it trickles through the air
Another casualty beyond the shadows you fall
Losing ground, the fate you feel it draws near
Fatality, reality, you await the final call

My sinful glare at nothing holds thoughts of death behind it
Skeletons in my mind commence tearing at my sanity
Vessels in my brain carry death until my birth
Come and die with me forever
Share insanity

Do you want to die!

The waves of blood are rushing near, pounding at the walls of lies
Turning off my sanity, reaching back into my mind
Non-rising body from the grave showing new reality
What I am, what I want, I'm only after death

One of my favoritest albums ever! :headbang:
