So awesome to see these live versions of 'Cryonics' and 'Tormentor'. These are songs they didn't play a lot in later years. The choreographed moves are hilarious by the way
I was born in 86 the year reign in blood for Slayer and master of puppets for Metallica came out. Lucky for me though my sister went to a few metallica concerts in the 80's and my cousin went to a few guns n roses concerts in the late 80's. my sister had friends that went to a few slayer concerts in the 80's. they told her it was wild. I wish I was a grown up in the 80's.
Was lucky enough to be into Metal this year. Saw so many great concerts! Slayer has been a favorite of mine since then! Very powerful band!! Got to be in "Ditto Head", meeting the band. Was fucking great! Thanks Slayer!!
It's 7 pm, I'm drinking coffee and waiting to go to the important meeting with government official to make agreement about ppp& concession projects which my consulting agency provides. I'm 46, got PhD, and listening this while drinking coffee... remembering my youth... seems like it was yesterday.
I am glad i saw slayer back in 85 !! Hell awaits tour and then every new tour on their following albums, Reign., South, Seasons... i stopped after Devine...
Love this old footage of Slayer. It's funny seeing Jeff and Kerry using a microphone, and doing background vocals. Don't think they ever used one again.
In those days, you had to have a bit of a glam touch if you wanted to succeed in the Los Angeles metal scene. But Kerry King absolutely DETESTED the makeup. And eventually they moved up to the San Francisco Bay Area where image didn't matter and bands like Exodus and Possessed were ripping hearts out nightly.
This was 1983, fans definitely knew how to headbang! Fact is that Slayer were a new band trying something a bit different. The crowd were probably curious more than anything else.
Jeff was 19 fucking years old here! Born to do it. So sad. He was an amazing composer. If Dave isn't welcomed back into the band at this point, they should call it quits. I will never see them again without Dave.
Amazing how teens used to just stand there in the face of such greatness and didn't even move their head. They had NO IDEA what they were hearing and seeing. This was 1983. This was the fastest, heaviest and most evil music ever and kids didn't know that this music was meant to bang your head to. Don't know why they weren't copying the musicians on stage who the only ones headbanging?
i hit on the video,and i get------> "AN ERROR OCCURED PLEASE TRY AGAIN LATER" I say....FUCK YOU, TH-cam FOR NOT BEING ABLE TO DEAL WITH THE MAGIC OF VINTAGE..SLAYERRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!
If anyone wants to talk shit about "Kerry King only wah's the tremolo on the e string for his solos," show them this. I don't know why he didn't play his leads more like this though
+dusch888 Kerry is an awesome player. People talk shit because they're full of shit. Jeff was an awesome player, too. They were a team and pushed each other to new realms not attainable by themselves. anybody that plays in bands knows this shit.
You can tell the songwriting was better in Metallica and Eventually Megadeth. Slayer did get better by 1986 even though I like Show no mercy its still not as good as the other 2 bands and I only put Megadeth there because he already had songs from Peace Sells and SFSGSW written in 84

You forgot to mention Megadeth's Peace Sells... who also came out in 1986, before Reign in Blood :D

They never moved up north. Always stayed in LA.

Fuck me, almost 30 years ago, I feel old. Even in the early days Slayer were tight, live. Thank fuck they ditched the eye make up though.
I was 16 saw them 2 yrs later in sf feel truly honored and really pleased 4 that by the way if mcdonalds made metal it would sound like metallica
I KNEEL BEFORE THEE, O MIGHTY SLAYER!
It’s hard to believe that in 83 Metallica were the most metal band around, and bands like Slayer and Pantera looked like glam metal bands...
I was 5 too!
i hit on the video,and i get------> "AN ERROR OCCURED PLEASE TRY AGAIN LATER" I say....FUCK YOU, TH-cam FOR NOT BEING ABLE TO DEAL WITH THE MAGIC OF VINTAGE..SLAYERRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!

+dusch888 Yep, Kerry knows plenty of ways to play chaotic, atonal bullshit! LOL!
