This is an excellent song full of amazing riffs. And to think Jeff Hanneman wrote every single riff in this entire song. Kerry's playing them here but Jeff wrote them all. (as well as writing Seasons in the Abyss and War Ensemble, my other two favourites from this album). A legendary guitarist and definitely the best guitarist in Slayer - RIP Jeff.
+Ian davis one of the fastest fucking and precisest guitar players. Most of these videos he's not even in touring shape. Live I can't even think about how incredible these guys are.
That man is so easy taking and fluent, and that's cool he shares his technique and actually the tab itself. Not keeping it under 7 lock like most of the other artists do.
Thanks Kerry. I am not a fan of tablature. can't stand the stuff. Lots of cool videos out there, but nothing like getting it straight from the source. Much appreciated.
He might say that, but if you watch his right hand you can see him alternate pick alot, it might just be that he wants to play some parts in all down picking cuz you get a different attack to the string doing that as opposed to up and down
Jimi Hendrix, widely known as the greatest all time guitarist wasn't exactly technical, but he could own every one of those "technical" guys anyday. Being technical doesn't automatically mean you'll be an amazing guitarist.
@Chester1004 The most are. There are some in standard like Black Magic at leasts on the studio version, but they play it halfstepdown live as far as I know.
I 'met' him at music live in birmingham last year, and i can assure you this isn't just a friendly act, he is generally a very down to earth guy He just looks mental with all his tatts, and his beard =P
Believe it or don't, I used to drink beer with him at a Friday's in OC. I sat down at the bar one night and looked at guy next to me. "holy shit, you're Kerry King!"
Kerry teched Hanneman how to play guitar, becaues as they started the band Hanneman couldnt play guitar, but, he learned pretty fast and i think, he is better now. And one of the reasons why they always invite King to lessons i think because of his look, he looks realy recognizable and of course he is awesome at guitar.
fantastic! simplicity and respect for the millions of fans the world. himself, teaching how to play one of their biggest hits. This guy is cool!
+Alberto Goncales super cool no bs type guy.
Down picking? Someone go wake up James.
Big respect
RIP legend..

deadskin mask is my favorite slayer song
Mine too!
Mine too
Is it just me or is he playing super freaking fast??
+Ian davis one of the fastest fucking and precisest guitar players. Most of these videos he's not even in touring shape. Live I can't even think about how incredible these guys are.
Listen to War Ensemble if you think this is fast LOL
First lesson I've watched by him. The dude is solid.
Once of the best metal riffs of all time. KFK!
What a master!
Kerry King & Glenn Tipton fuckin' rule... the gods of guitar.
I fucking love the 2nd riff, one of the best by lord kerry
R.I.P Jeff :(
This is one of the better kerry king solos, really great song!
240p we meet again!
That man is so easy taking and fluent, and that's cool he shares his technique and actually the tab itself. Not keeping it under 7 lock like most of the other artists do.
Hi, i'm Kerry King and now i'm gonna let you watch me playing DeadSkinMask
KERRY!!!! YOU ARE A METAL GOD!!!! I LOVE YA!!!! HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY TO YOU!!!
Great great great!
thx for uploading"!
5/5
Now was awesome Slayer is one of my favorites and dead skin mask is my most favorite song btw which
bc rich is that
he's such an underrated player. that right hand is dangerous
In my opinion, being one of the greatest metal guitarists for almost 30 years makes you cool enough to wear sun glasses inside or at night.
what a sound bloke. As down to earth as they come.
agreed ive never thought kerry king as much of a soloist
Slayer seems to be the only band who plays their songs like the tab shows it.
kerry king is my facking favourite guitarist!!!!
PURE EARGASMS WHEN KING PLAYS....
Kerry king has the wickedest riffs. Slayer kicks fuckin ass.
i wouldn't care if he totally fucked up this whole video .slayer still owns.
Dave Lombardo!!!
he seems like a cool guy to talk having some beers...
"...How fucking metal is that?"
He's hilarious!!! And he kicks ass!!!
hell yeah, no one can drum like dave
i heard that he's one hell of a guy
damn im gonna take forever to learn how to play this song man
R.I.P Ed Gein
yeah, i think hes gonna do well.
Greetings from germany!
He's just your neighbor who plays in a band that just so happens to be one of best in the world
i love this fucking sound of the guitar
Slayer is my favorite dead skin mask song
seasons in the abyss
Thanks Kerry!
that guitar is so fuckin' metal/brutal/awesome/ultimate
hanneman is the brains of that operation
this is probally the best youtube vid ive seen in my life.
Can anybody say me how much the guitar is? I LOVE THIS AXE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! is it eve buyable?
Thanks Kerry. I am not a fan of tablature. can't stand the stuff. Lots of cool videos out there, but nothing like getting it straight from the source. Much appreciated.
cute little marshall stack in the back!
Thanks Kerry. Cleared up some stuff for me..
Kerry is such a nice and cool guy, but he looks like a fuckin beast :D
I really like this song... my fav album from slayer SEASON IN THE ABYSS!
I hear the devil from this lil' marshall...
well thats cause he likes playing on that scale plus i mean whos complaining its fucking great music
This is the most evil song I've ever heard.
That beard is very good at playing the guitar.
been into these for 10 years and i know why he is fuckin ace
He definately soudns like he want to be there.
Kerry is such a cool dude.
4:34 *One try u like that shit* Bhahahahahahahaha that is so fricken epic man!!
He might say that, but if you watch his right hand you can see him alternate pick alot, it might just be that he wants to play some parts in all down picking cuz you get a different attack to the string doing that as opposed to up and down
Thanks a shit load man, i learned the solo from this video, took a while but i have the notes right.
Kerry For President
evil whatever if its evil if it sounds good its good to me ...
hail SLAYER ....brings tears to my eyes just love it
You'd get close, but not all the way there. It depends primarily on your amp - you'll want one with fat midrange to accomplish the Slayer tone.
lol at the starting "the police did something like this"
Kerry king= ultimate badass
Dead Skin Mask is a song of Slayer, Hanneman had a Dead Skin Arm
I am learning so much from you kerry king I am getting better by the day
the little flavor from the riff prior"
Always thought he was a great guitarist, now it seems like he's a cool guy too, Slayer fuckin rock ;)
Yeah, plus Jeff writes all of the music and helps write most of the lyrics
Jimi Hendrix, widely known as the greatest all time guitarist wasn't exactly technical, but he could own every one of those "technical" guys anyday. Being technical doesn't automatically mean you'll be an amazing guitarist.
Jajajajaja Hes The Man!!! The Best Riffer Ever For Me...=P
Then youve never heard of norwegian black metal and that shit, i love it, enslaved, mayhem, theyre really good.
@Chester1004
The most are. There are some in standard like Black Magic at leasts on the studio version, but they play it halfstepdown live as far as I know.
badass riffs!!!
the haze wasn't even out back then. second, it doesn't sound anything like it, so i'd say it's a marshall mini stack.
KK is cool, and even though he might not be the BEST guitarist ever, Slayer pretty much kick ass :)
Thats acctually pretty cool xD
Thanks Kerry, legend.
I 'met' him at music live in birmingham last year, and i can assure you this isn't just a friendly act, he is generally a very down to earth guy
He just looks mental with all his tatts, and his beard =P
balled, huge bear, tattos. this guy is heavy metall from top to toe :D
ha ha this guy knows the term harmony, what a surprise, I thought these slayer guys created their songs by accident, not intentionally
MAN I LOVE THAT V OF KERRYS! i want that 1... :(
Believe it or don't, I used to drink beer with him at a Friday's in OC. I sat down at the bar one night and looked at guy next to me. "holy shit, you're Kerry King!"
Megadeth FUCKING AWESOME!!! they might be a little to heavy but they sound the exact same thing as metalllica!!
Kerry teched Hanneman how to play guitar, becaues as they started the band Hanneman couldnt play guitar, but, he learned pretty fast and i think, he is better now.

That isn't even true
Emperor Alvis mostly true. Jeff hadn’t played for much and learned a lot from Kerry
Yeah the way he storms off stage sometimes, at least he comes back to finish the shows up though(Mustaine).
\,,/ Fookin brilliant!
tremendo tema!! el primero que aprendi de slayer con la guitarra...
Kerry King = EPIC winning
One of Kerry's many custom BC Rich V's.
It's a shame King has never played with Priest.
heh, I learned this song the other day and I have pretty crappy equipment...sounded almost just like it lol
"PRIEST"
KK isnt the best guitarist in the world but he comes up with the crazyest shit ever!
he was talking about the sentinel judas priest
love that guitar
Spite that Kerry has alot of tattoes on his body and seems like a real bad dude, he seems really nice
@XxiMattxX its a marshall microstack, the haze is pretty recent
actually they've got a pretty good reputation of being very skilled guitarists.
kerrys a legend
