This is considered by most to be Slayer’s peak.And who am I to disagree.This is Slayer firing on all cylinders,every side of the Slaytanic machine are represented here.The guitars sound like chainsaws from hell and the drums are like machinegun blasts of the apocalypse.War Ensemble is possibly the most vicious recording ever captured.Tom araya’s voice is incredible,mixing up vocal styles throughout.Thrash,death,doom metal,Its all here.After the smoke settles Slayer stand far above the hordes of generic death and black metal bands and are still the most intense and extreme metal band on the planet.
