I really enjoy your videos. You have such a great personality and what a great message that I wish more embraced - just be a good human. Thanks for that. Would love to see your reaction to this song. A great rocking tune with a killer guitar intro and a bass line that never stops. th-cam.com/video/ct-qa6SjRZo/w-d-xo.html
One Artist for you to React to: TOMMY BOLIN. (Tommy, sadly passed away in 1976, at the Very Early Age of 25. Just as he was on the verge of becoming Big. Stupidly, He OD'ed!! :( :( I was 17, he was My 1st Guitar Hero, and My Entire World was Rocked Hard for A Long While. Check Out: My Favorite: "Wild Dogs" and "Dreamer" both off of his 1st solo CD "Teaser". Also, "Post Toastee" from his 2nd/last solo album: "Private Eyes". IF you are Into/Like Great Dynamics, then "Dreamer" is a song for you. From sparse, mellow and pretty to Rocking Out in a beat. Then-Boom- Right back to sweet and mellow. On "Post Toastee" Everyone in the band gets to Show Off A Little! :) I would suggest the studio versions/audio of all 3.
I catered this band backstage. During this time I was able to obtain in bass drum skin. The entire band autographed it for me and gave me a slayer drumstick.
That album is a dark gem. The three late 80 albums starting with Reign in Blood, to South of Heaven, and then Seasons in the Abyss are by far masterpiece albums for the genre of Thrash Metal!
Alright now giving you all my love for reacting to SLAYER! I've been subbed to you from the beginning but this just solidified it for me! Sending some serious subbers your way after this!
Dude, your reactions are the best. Don’t ever stop doing reactions, you crack me up!😄 I watch a few other people who do reactions to music and your are by far the best.
Slayer!!!!!! You're a brave man! This isn't everyone's cup of tea. Back in the day it didn't get much heavier. I was the only one of my friends that listened to this stuff. If you're headed this way I'd recommend Anthrax - Indians.
To me, it's the drums that really give Slayer its punch. It's too bad the remaining members of Slayer did Dave wrong with the finances (long and convoluted story). Lombardo is one of the top 10 best living drummers ever, by far! The double bass drum wizard!
@@hansele666 Yes, you do have a point there. I don't think Lombardo is the all-time best drummer of all genres, just thrash. Hoglan is extremely intricate, and I love it. However, Hoglan transcends thrash, hardcore, and other extreme metals. Just my opinion, but yes credit does go out to Hogland.
You know what's great? People, guys, requesting AMAZING songs of various style but always good song! Master of Puppets, Tenesee whiskey, South of Heaven, Arials, and so forth...
Dude, Slayer fans are different. I've seen them live 23 times. When you said that about the drums I remember seeing them in 92 in Tijuana. They just got a new drummer and there is a drum solo on the song they have called Angel of Death that the entire crowd got quiet for. He nailed it.
Your back deco is freaking awesome. I have a ton of mini guitars lining my desk. Have a couple of what you have. Getting several more this Christmas. Love this reaction as well. Rock on my man.
Just a reminder tomorrow is Veterans Day. I don’t presume to speak for all vets but I for one would like to see you reaction to: Billy Joel’s: Goodnight Saigon Charlie Daniels: Still in Saigon Dire Straits: Brothers in Arms. Show us veterans who are your subscribers some love on our day.
I worked stagefront security for a Raven/Wasp/Slayer ticket in 1987 and it was insanely intense. The pit was a swirling mass of bodies piled high on top of each other. Hell, most of the entire lower deck (two-story theater) was pit. It was mayhem.
Took a friend to his first rock concert in 1991. It was Testament and Slayer. A guy came walking out of one of the three mosh pits, holding his right arm up with his left hand. Unfortunately, his arm was hanging sideways at a place where there is no joint. My buddy's face drained of color, and I couldn't decide if he was going to barf or pass out.
Yea ive been to hundreds of shows and Slayer definitely has some of the gnarliest crowds, everyone rushed general admission and there was nothing security could do, also was my first time seeing someone in a wheel chair crowd surfing lol
I just learned this song on guitar a couple months ago. One of my favorite Slayer albums. Good to see you go heavy again brother❤.. that was the music we listen to as angry teenagers LOL. But we'll always relate to it even now that we're old
I love your respect for all music. We may not all grow up listening to the same music, eat the same food or have the same skin color but there is a simple and complex beauty to all music. This is why I made all my children learn to play an instrument of their choosing. Keep doing what you do good sir. You make my day with your commentary and overall appreciation for music and life. Be blessed.
I had a big smile the whole time! So glad you got to hear this! Metal mastery! You should do yourself a huge favor and check out the Brazilian band Selputura! Start with the song Territory and back that up with Dead EMBRYONIC CELLS which is a just like South of Heaven with a Brazilian flair! Get ready to want to hit the gym!!!
I don’t really listen to Slayer much anymore because I wore them out so much during my teenage years, but when I go back they are as comfortable as an old shoe. They remind me of why I HAVE ALWAYS LOVED METAL.
I love heavy metal where you can actually understand the lyrics, otherwise it's, to me, an instrumental with growling and grunts, and in that case I'd rather just have the instrumental. On a side note, check out Marvin Gaye and Slayer mashup, "South of the Grapevine"☺.
if you have never then do yourself a favor and have about 45 mins to yourself with some good headphones and listen to the south of heaven album bonus is they do some f'n job covering an old judas priest song
I've never been a huge Slayer fan, this being one of the handful of songs I enjoy. I think Jamel found out why the moment his face scrunched up! Another great reaction. Thank you again for having such an open mind, Jamel. You should try another Slayer song I enjoy greatly "Seasons in the Abyss"
Fun fact, Rick Rubin (Co-founder of Def Jam records, producer of Run-DMC, LL Cool J, Public Enemy, Beastie Boys and Geto Boys.) was the Producer on the album this song is from as well as a bunch of other Slayer-albums.
Best reaction to Slayer ever. Love seeing people react to the first time they hear this. I wish I could bottle up my first listen back in 1988 in Dave Taylor’s car on his Alpine!!!
The very first time I heard this album was on my Walkman and I was banging my head on SEPTA which is our transit system in Philly. Slayer concerts are wild 🤘. Take care and stay safe 😷
You had that "I just ate something dirty" look the whole song...lol
4 ปีที่แล้ว
Saw them play a few times. First time I was 13 back in 87 and thought they'd never top it, then they played this club in spartanburg, SC in 2001 and it only had room for 700 they packed 1,600 in it and the heat killed all of the coolers and got to 105. Greatest show this century!
Here is a little Slayer secret for you. When they perfromed LIVE, for the most part it was, Jeff stage Left, and Kerry stage Right. When you listen to there music, whatever Jeff is playing, in on the Left, Kerry Right. Same for those trade off solos.
I remember being 17 and going with a guy that had friends that practiced in a warehouse. Slayer, Megadeth, DOA. You name it they played it. Awesome days they were.
Slayer has such fantastic lyrics, it’s a horror story with music. Had a girl in high school say that this music is satanic but you don’t see people calling horror movies satanic. It’s the same thing in a different medium.
Slayer is the Horror movie of Music Neighbor this is the reason why I joined your channel Cause Metal and you giving it a new prospective on it, this song is Talk about the Rapture (before you see the Light you must Die) and the condemned are left on Earth
Deep down inside your bones is where a metalhead feels his music. And it's something that'll just move you. And seeing and hearing Jamal react to SLAYER is obviously a metalhead
This is the thing about hard metal stuff like this! You hear those screaming guitars, fast tempos, and grisly lyrics, and then you look at the band. People think man, they must be a right bunch of evil bastards, but hold your horses people! Bass player, and vocalist Tom Araya is one of the nicest, chilled out guy you could imagine. I say this because so many of these guys/bands get a bad rap outside of the metal industry! Books and covers to the ignorant minded out there. I'm not even a massive metal fan, although i know what i like, but i just had to get it off my chest! 🤘
The first time I ever saw Slayer was in 1996 at the Trocadero in philadelphia. They opened the show with this song and the crowd was so loud in the intro we drowned out the band. One of the top 5 shows I ever went to.
this song reminds me of keggers, garage bands, passing out in the bushes on the side of the road , puking, and waking up in a cop car right in front of my house! ♫ memories...♫
From the Seasons In The Abyss album, "Skeletons Of Society" is my favorite Slayer song (for what it's worth) and is a hardcore but 'slower', constant groove. You should do a reaction video to that one. I think you would enjoy.
I’d recommend to some of their deeper tracks like Criminally insane, black magic, dittohead, chemical warfare, at dawn they sleep. There’s way more but those are a few of my favorites
The main reason I listen to Slayer is not for the lyrics. I can really careless. I listen to Slayer for the energy, especially the drumming...Lombardo is the best modern day drummer that is still playing!!!
Glad you're reacting to Slayer again! And you are absolutely right, Slayer needs to be listened to at the very least a moderate volume. It actually sounds terrible when you listen to it low. The right parts of the music don't come through unless it's loud enough.
First saw Slayer with Megadeth, Anthrax, and Alice In Chains back in 1991 for the Clash of the Titans Tour.... although my musically tastes have changed, I started listening to them in 1988.
Quite a bill. Tickets were probably $32. Saw Overkill, Motorhead and Slayer at Harpo's in Detroit in 1989 with a fake I.D. 😃. $17.50+ the ubiquitous "ticketmaster service charge".
LOL that stankface during the solo and near the end were exactly what this song should elicit sonically hehe. Love it ;) As for myself.. this (and other songs in this genre) is/are actually background music for me while I am at work. 16 gigs of .mp3's to choose from all night.. just throw on an album and I am good for 30-120 minutes depending on the album. Everything from AC/DC to ZZ Top.. Slayer to Creed.. Ghost to Iron Maiden. All night long ;)
fun fact: this song was (and many other metal songs of the 80s/early 90s) was used in Doom/Doom2 soundtrack. this song was on the most badass level....Dead Simple. M1E7
This is my all-time favorite Slayer tune!!! 🤘🎸🤘🎸🤘🎸🤘 If you haven't done Seasons In the Abyss, you need to do that one. Reign In Blood is another must listen.
You NEED to react to all three of these songs! Asylum - The Black Dahlia Murder In Hell is where She Waits for Me - The Black Dahlia Murder When Life Meant More - All Shall Perish Have the lyrics ready for ALL of them!
Once at a slayer concert in England my shoe lace came undone. I wanted to tie it before the next song and this guy in a banana costume came out of no where and said don't worry banana man will protect you

One Artist for you to React to: TOMMY BOLIN. (Tommy, sadly passed away
in 1976, at the Very Early Age of 25. Just as he was on the verge of
becoming Big. Stupidly, He OD'ed!! :( :( I was 17, he was My 1st Guitar

My Favorite: "Wild Dogs" and "Dreamer" both off of his 1st solo CD
"Teaser". Also, "Post Toastee" from his 2nd/last solo album: "Private
Eyes". IF you are Into/Like Great Dynamics, then "Dreamer" is a song for
you. From sparse, mellow and pretty to Rocking Out in a beat.
Then-Boom- Right back to sweet and mellow. On "Post Toastee" Everyone in
the band gets to Show Off A Little! :) I would suggest the studio
versions/audio of all 3.
Upside down Pentagram?! Nah, I'll skip this one thanks
This is alarm on phone I wake up every morning to this song my wife wants to know what's wrong with me I'm 62 years old. Metal heads are never to old
That's awesome man!!
Hell yeah...I’ve been a metalhead since 86.
We are defenders of the faith, I have been a pre-metal head since Black Sabbath, and am the same age as you.
Keep on rockin bro.
Im 54 and metal still rules my world 🤘
Word UP!
Dave Lombardo's drumming is a gift to us all.
Cannot like this enough
Thx to Gene "Atomic Clock - the Godfather of Drums" Hoglan because he learn Lombardo playing drums
Agreed
Yes it is
My legs still hurt from air drumming "Angel of Death..."
I catered this band backstage. During this time I was able to obtain in bass drum skin. The entire band autographed it for me and gave me a slayer drumstick.
Was the skin human 😵
Dude, I catered this band too! I got to meet Gary Holt, and Scott Ian from Anthrax
Sweet !
epic!!!
That’s fantastic!
Dave Lombardo, their drummer one of my favorites. When slayer isn’t playing Dave makes money playing in jazz bands because he can.
He plays in Suicidal Tendencies, Mr Bungle , Fantomas, and Misfits.He left Slayer long ago
He also hasn’t played with them in a very long time
@@bubbadagger with Paul from The Beatles 2
@@OldSchool_Dad wow really?
Dave Lombardo is awesome 🤘
SLAYER!!! Yes man, great song...if you like this one, I suggest Seasons in the Abyss.
Agreed! Peak Lombardo drumming on that track!
The entire album is worth reviewing.
SITA is my favorite Slayer song. That and Raining Blood.
Yes, Season in the Abyss is a masterpiece. A MASTERPIECE!!!
DEAD SKIN MASK
OMG. slayer.. i loved these guy back in the late 80's/90's....im old
The drummer is Dave Lombardo and he's one of the best metal drummers ever.
If you haven't already, you should check out their Seasons In The Abysss
That album is a dark gem. The three late 80 albums starting with Reign in Blood, to South of Heaven, and then Seasons in the Abyss are by far masterpiece albums for the genre of Thrash Metal!
Seasons In The Abyss--killer.
A great album, but 'Reign In Blood' was surely their zenith!
This whole album is a timeless classic! 🤘🏼🤘🏼

Don’t ever stop doing reactions, you crack me up!😄
I watch a few other people who do reactions to music and your are by far the best.
I'm glad I found your channel first.
“Lost In Vegas” are good too.
I'm glad I found his channel too! I absolutely love watching him react to music I grew up on!
Slayer!!!!!! You're a brave man! This isn't everyone's cup of tea. Back in the day it didn't get much heavier. I was the only one of my friends that listened to this stuff. If you're headed this way I'd recommend Anthrax - Indians.
Amen! I was the same.....plus NWA and Public Enemy😈👍
Musically I am good with Slayer, its the vocals that kind of kill them for me.
@@victorcoburn2791 PE sampled Slayer tunes quite a few times over the course of their albums.
@@purplebeard1526 I agree love their music and lyrics but was never a fan of the singer
Also Anthrax - Madhouse
To quote Scott Ian from Anthrax, "Slayer is like the elevator music in Hell"
Dead Skin Mask! Song still puts chills on my arms, especially knowing it’s about Ed Gein
Jamel, you're the best man. Love your enthusiasm and sincerity for music. Negativity isn't in your DNA and I love it. Keep doing what you do!
1988 was the year they got drums right in metal. South of Heaven, Beneath The Remains and And Justice for All had amazing sounding drums.
Dude, Motorhead had that shi!t tight in the '70s.
Another good one is "Toxic Waltz" by Exodus or "Critical Mass" by Nuclear Assault
Blacklist from Exodus, too \m/
Holy crap, someone else who knows Nuclear Assault!
Double fuck yes
Toxic waltz. That’s some old school shit right there. Love it.
@@420MRNICEGUY818 I remember seeing the video on Headbanger's Ball Saturday nights on MTV along with lots of other great metal/thrash bands
Speaking of "skeletons", now you should check out their classic, "Skeletons of Society"!
The drummer Dave Lombardo is the best. Not just technically but feeling too.
To me, it's the drums that really give Slayer its punch. It's too bad the remaining members of Slayer did Dave wrong with the finances (long and convoluted story). Lombardo is one of the top 10 best living drummers ever, by far! The double bass drum wizard!
@@PulseTrick credit goes out to Mr Gene Hoglan !!
Tom Hunting best thrash drummer

Me too :)
Wow Jamel, I'm impressed with your appreciation and open mind for anything! 🤘🤘🤘
Probably one of the best reaction channels on this site. Keep it man, I love your content!
One of my favorite bands and this album is my number one keep reactin to great music like this...sending a hug an respect from Sonora Mexico.
You know what's great? People, guys, requesting AMAZING songs of various style but always good song! Master of Puppets, Tenesee whiskey, South of Heaven, Arials, and so forth...
I’ve seen them many times. They opened with this song on this tour. Goosebumps!
This album was my first foray into thrash. Thirty two years later, I am still banging my head to these bands. Still my favorite Slayer album!

Slayer concerts used to have the gnarliest mosh pits! You could seriously get hurt! 🤘
I worked stagefront security for a Raven/Wasp/Slayer ticket in 1987 and it was insanely intense. The pit was a swirling mass of bodies piled high on top of each other. Hell, most of the entire lower deck (two-story theater) was pit. It was mayhem.

And they follow this song with Silent Screams, perhaps one of the most brutal songs (musically and lyrically) in their catalog.
Another great song choice! This was my first introduction to Slayer. I was in high school. Dang...Tom is still rocking all these years later!
THANK YOU for this journey Jamal. Brings a smile in this damn world! THANK YOU.
Seasons In The Abyss is a must. The intro is the scariest i've heard.
I had a big smile the whole time! So glad you got to hear this! Metal mastery! You should do yourself a huge favor and check out the Brazilian band Selputura! Start with the song Territory and back that up with Dead EMBRYONIC CELLS which is a just like South of Heaven with a Brazilian flair! Get ready to want to hit the gym!!!
I don’t really listen to Slayer much anymore because I wore them out so much during my teenage years, but when I go back they are as comfortable as an old shoe. They remind me of why I HAVE ALWAYS LOVED METAL.

I love that you play all kinds of rock. Its rare to find fans of both metal and the Dead. My 3 favorite bands are the Grateful Dead Rush and Slayer.

Slayer is the Horror movie of Music Neighbor this is the reason why I joined your channel

Lombardo's chops are really putting Slayer above everything metal in my humble opinion!
Yes to Slayer!! I’m all over the place musically. Definitely have my thrash metal days! 😄
And this is why I love you..variety is the spice of life!
The drums absolutely make it.
I grew up on Slayer... so many memories. Remember when metal was metal?
Love your intro music man. Its like a 1950's tv show.
The ultimate thrash song is "A Lesson in Violence" by Exodus. Check that one out!
That stank face though! You have opened Pandora’s box! Dead Skin Mask is a must!
this song reminds me of keggers, garage bands, passing out in the bushes on the side of the road , puking, and waking up in a cop car right in front of my house! ♫ memories...♫
Always loved "dead skin mask" by slayer. Fell asleep listening to it once and it gave me a wicked cool nightmare
Please react to Scorpions - "Still Loving You" & "Winds Of Change".
From the Seasons In The Abyss album, "Skeletons Of Society" is my favorite Slayer song (for what it's worth) and is a hardcore but 'slower', constant groove. You should do a reaction video to that one. I think you would enjoy.

There is only one word that describes Slayer... INTENSE!
He is talking about earth not hell.
A lot of people don't know that SLAYER was signed to DEF JAM Recordings at one time!
600K suscribers, almost 2 Years and You miss all this time Judas Priest "Victim of Changes"
Sometimes You CANT keep all Legendary songs Alive with our Bro
Jamel should react to “Victim of Changes” and “ Diamonds and Rust” from Unleashed in the East

Everything from AC/DC to ZZ Top.. Slayer to Creed.. Ghost to Iron Maiden. All night long ;)
I see Slayer, I hit like. Seasons of the Abyss is another awesome Slayer tune.
fun fact: this song was (and many other metal songs of the 80s/early 90s) was used in Doom/Doom2 soundtrack. this song was on the most badass level....Dead Simple. M1E7
This is my all-time favorite Slayer tune!!! 🤘🎸🤘🎸🤘🎸🤘
If you haven't done Seasons In the Abyss, you need to do that one. Reign In Blood is another must listen.
You NEED to react to all three of these songs!
Asylum - The Black Dahlia Murder
In Hell is where She Waits for Me - The Black Dahlia Murder
When Life Meant More - All Shall Perish
Have the lyrics ready for ALL of them!
Once at a slayer concert in England my shoe lace came undone. I wanted to tie it before the next song and this guy in a banana costume came out of no where and said don't worry banana man will protect you
We love your open mind. I still think of you being amazed at David Lee Roth in the "Jump" video, or loving Joni Mitchell's voice. Etc. So thank you.
