This was Dimebag Darrell's favorite Slayer track.
His thoughts on it.
"Those guys have a real unorthodox style of playing - it's totally not normal. [Laughs] They have unbelievable rhythm chops. Their songs taught me how to play with guts and aggression.
The half-time feel on "At Dawn They Sleep" is really cool, too. I like how they just start and stop out of nowhere, using no time to build up or wind down. They never give you a chance to get into a song: As soon as it starts, they're battering you over the head, hard and fast."
Long live the Abbott Brothers 🤘
I know exactly what you're saying.
Get cha pull!
This album and their first album is all the Slayer I need. I'm addicted to that early thrash sound.
Haunting the Chapel is good too
You don't like Reign In Blood?
@@PaulMclauchlinThe novelty wears off after a while with that one. But the Metal Blade stuff is so low-fi and visceral that I like it more.
The first two albums were so EVIL sounding. They lost some of that with Reign In Blood.
Love the bass guitar presence on this album in particular…
epic scary imaginative 80s Slayer is their best era. great song, lyrics and music
Agreed
Man, I haven’t heard this album in awhile. Time to revisit Hell Awaits & the 1st album!
I have been listening to it again recently. Forgot why I stopped
It gets more evil, try "Necropheliac" from this same album.
But while we're on the subjuct of vampires, try "Blood Religion" by Gamma Ray.
A crazy thing I recently learned about these guys, is that Tom Araya apparently knew nothing about heavy metal before joining Slayer.
That’s the only slayer song I won’t listen to, it grossed me the Hell out lmao
Fun fact: Slayer wanted this album “underproduced” to try and replicate the raw sound that Venom had on “Welcome to Hell”
They came close but there is only one….THE MIGHTY VENOM!
Funny my ep I named Zero Tolerance. Unproduced and In Your Face.
“They got that Groove.” That’s the “Lombardo Groove.”
One of my favourite songs . Slayer for ever 🤘
You can never go wrong with slayer🤘💖🙏💯
Hell Awaits, sinners. Such a straight up diabolical record. Crank it up and you can smell the sulfur.
I imagine Old Scratch, Lucifer Morningstar, at the mixing board, wisps of smoke coming off his fingers, smiling at the band.
"Yes, this is acceptable to me. You've done well. Now, gentlemen, if you will just sign here."
Aggressive, Catchy & EVIL!!! That’s why they’ve been one of my favorites since the 80’s.
They use words not common to something you would expect.
I was 16 when this came out. I didn't back then know I was a writer.
I'm just over 50 now and realize how integral to my writing process they became.
It started for me in Southern California, but moved on to Southern Florida.
These guys shaped my creativity.
God Bless Slayer.
Like cruciforms
Hell awaits is probably one my favorite albums of Slayer!! Especially the title track Hell Awaits!! When they play that song live, you feel this energy come out of you that's something from another world!!
🤘slayer 🤘
Slayer are so powerful and phenomenal, I absolutely love slayer, finally got to see them live in Seattle at quest field and it was a literal war zone, I was in the mosh the entire show and it was brutal, luckily I was sober and could survive 👍
Nice, i saw em at the Moore Theater, 1988, Halloween no less. The orchestra pit was the mosh pit, most of the floor seats got torn out, Ppl divin off the balconies, burnin curtains & shit. What went on that night should NEVER have been allowed indoors.🤘🏽😤🤘🏽
Necrophiliac is awesome from this lp.
Hell yes 🤘
The whole album is a statement; starts with the ending grove, or ends with the starting grove, whatever you prefer!
The whole of the Hell Awaits album is my favourite track on the album.
Its my favourite album by my favourite band. Fuckin' SLAYER 🤘🤘🤘
Favorite track from this album is tough. It’s either hell await or at dawn they sleep
A friend gave me this on vinyl in 86 - ish and I got it as the third owner. The first two coul;dn't stand having it in their houses anymore. It was too EVIL. LMFAO. I still have it.
Jamed this album the other day one of my favorite slayer alubms great reaction T🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥☮️💯♥️
Great video. Your analysis and opinion are right on. Was definitely one of those recommending this song on that metal meltdown. One of my favorite songs from one of my favorite albums. Saw them live many times including their final show at the Forum :)
Hell Awaits is my favorite Slayer both the album and the title track. It's the one that got me into the band. I still think this is their darkest and scariest album and the one that would link to the Death Metal bands to follow. I actually love the underproduced sound as that is a big part of what makes it sound so sinister.
My favorite Slayer album as well.
Finally, love this whole album
The title track hell awaits where they're saying join us backwards I was also 15 when it came out had to have it especially after having haunting the chapel and I believe the EP before was live evil they're the only big four that never went commercial
Finally this is topps. Ty my guy!!!!!
Back in the early 2000s I saw Slayer in a little club in philly, they just stood there ripping metal riffs with this white light behind them, It was like a fever dream.
@@hmpz36911 I don't remember, my buddy got the tickets and drove us all there, I was along for the ride.
By far and away their best work. Ty brother
i fkn love your reaction and your point of view about At Dawn They Sleep and about the band's catalogue. Thanks man.
Oh my God that's an old video I made! I'm so glad you decided to use it for your reaction, been obsessed with this song lately haha
You nailed it. This is one of my absolute favorites from them across the entire catalog.
Also, very astute observation concerning their undisputed inclusion amidst the Big-4!
I'm a metal head for life and I'd never even considered that point until now.
Well done.
Well chosen.
...and thanks for covering it!
A great SLAYER track, love the grooves and the cadence of the lyrics
Everytime I hear this live. I get chills. And my Ass kicked in the pit. Many many times.
Oh wow...even Slayer sounds like Slayer (wink)...this is probably the best one I've heard so far!
Slayer, Megadeth, Anthrax, Testament, King Diamond....my high school years...miss those times. Slayer is my all-time favorite metal band! No one kept it more honest and real like they did for so many years.
Something about this Slayer album in particular that really has its very own sound and tone. I can't really describe it but I wonder if the bass was using chorus effects or something
Excellent. Gotta do Necrophiliac from same album, or Crypts of Eternity.
This is the real occult stuff.
I think those are even more evil songs.
Crypts of Eternity is probably my favorite song on Hell Awaits, so murky and creepy.
This is by far my favorite album and song !
Amazing song 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
By far in my humble opinion their best work. Hell Awaits. The Shit!
"I have heard this song" I appreciate the honesty, it's refreshing.
Omg my favorite slayer album.
It's spelled FUCKIIING SLAAAAYERRR!
Hello sir
I'm amazed that you losten to that stuff that i've been listening for 30 years
thank you for your reaction, that's good to see how over peaople react !!!
My all time favorite Slayer song ! Hell Awaits is also my favorite Slayer album👍🤘🤘
Early 80s SLAYER FUCKING RIPS
Love SLAYER 🤟🏻💀🤟🏻 they never sold out !!! For ANYONE !! Stayed true to their thrash sound !!
Listening to this song...it's like a time machine! Truthfully the whole album rocks. 'Necrophiliac' may be a bit more evil. Good stuff. man. you get it! 🎶🤘
You should check out Overt Enemy’s cover of this song. Saw them perform it live in Corpus Christi TX this past March. They did it a fantastic job on it!
As an 18-year-old in 1985 hearing this for the first time on the Friday Rock Show back in the days of radio, I thought this was the evilest, eerie riff I'd heard at that point. And the speed and the drumming. Masters before they became stale and monotonous after SOH.
Facts. Alot of ppl dont realize mid to late 80's metal & hiphop where both still underground & completely shunned industry wise. No airplay, no respect, no grammy categories like today etc & no internet. Seattle had ONE college station (KCMU) w/ a 2hr metal show (Brain Pain) followed by a 2hr hiphop show (Rap Attack) sunday nights. So I wasnt surprised at all when Slayer signed with JefJam. I was 15, playin D&D & KCMU played the entire Hell Awaits album. Man that shit changed my life. Slayer.🤘🏽😤🤘🏽
Yes my favorite Slayer song!
Your headbanging is top notch. Don't stop.
FINALLY you react to this song 🤘SLAYER🤘
Been a fav since it was released.
Hell yeah! I saw them on this tour. I still think their best stuff is on their first four albums (which includes the 4 song EP 'Haunting the Chapel)
I'm glad you got to hear this track. Check out some live recordings of them performing Hell Awaits, awesome stuff. /,,/ !
great reaction
My favorite song from this record....
One of the absolute best Slayer songs. That intro riff is sinister af.
Hell Awaits is one of the most wicked albums ever put out! Those guys were just a magic formula for horror metal and this album was grabs you. Really fantastic stuff.
Brilliant song... both musically and lyrics.. A song about vampires, from the vampire's point of view!
It's great you can enjoy good music
my best album of Slayer to be honest,they play the entire album in 1997 in montreal when they came for the show
Jajajaja. Increíble que lo conozca yo, un argentino, antes que vos. Buena reacción!
My favorite slayer album
1985 Exodus, Slayer, Venom. Ultimate Revenge Tour....the stuff of legends.
Still my favorite SLAYER song. Reign will always be my favorite album. Great Review as always T.
Crypt of eternity is my favorite song in the album!!! I like to watch the way People experience music especially stuff like slayer
nothing else like Old school Slayer- nuclear warfare, Hell awaits, Black Magic, Die by the sword Etc AWESOME!!!!!
Dont sleep on the 'Haunting the Chapel' EP i had the picture disk back in the day. I fux w/ metal songs bout vampires & that opening riff is HoF. 1st saw Slayer at Moore Theater, Seattle, Reign in Blood, '87? Halloween no less. The Moore was an intimate playhouse then, w/ theater & balcony seating for idk 500+/-. Id seen 'Fiddler on the Roof' there. Now the sunken orchestra pit, the width of the stage & bout 6 rows deep, was the "gen admission" moshpitt.& what went on that night should never have been allowed indoors. Half the floor seats were broken flat, or torn out completely from ppl jumpin off the seating into the moshpitt. Ppl swingin from & divin off the balconys into the seating & even off the balcony edges directly into the moshpitt. Cushions & curtains burnt, drugs, fights & a 6'8" bloody Jesus walkin around.
My favorite Slayer song.
Only slayer could make vampires sound badass and cool
The only Slayer I had heard before this was the only newly released South of Heaven. I was 12. I bought the cassette of Hell Awaits and listened on my own in my room.. I'll never forget the thoughts that the intro of the song Hell Awaits caused me. I thought I was engaging Satan. I listened through the album and I was disturbed that there were actually human beings out there that chose to listen to music like this. Now Im one of them. It's great!!!
my favorite slayer record.
Favourite song from this album has to be Necrophiliac.
🤘😝🤘 Slaaayer!
🤘🤘🤘
Its 85: i buy Hell awaits Under the blade and the first 2 Venoms at record store. It wasn't until I fell in love with south of heaven That I was able to go back and listen to Hell awaits it was that evil
Insane
The difference is...they never changed. Never sold out, unlike the other Big 4. Stayed true,for better or worse. They made plenty of money from true fans like me that seen them every tour since '84. 3 times on their final tour. They were the most consistent Band in my life.
I got to see slayer 27 times from 84 through 2015
Awesome! I love this track! the riffs my god the riffs. Only Satan can inspire such badassery. Great album but definitely very dense, thick and meaty. Reigh in Blood is like Hell Awaits diet XL Hanneman and King were very intricate riffmongers! 10/10
You missed the point.
@@B2Sr wot u mean?
@@DEFKONSIXTYSIXlml getin the pit. Apparently you have not been there
@@DEFKONSIXTYSIXlml btw is wot a word? Looked it up...
@@B2Sr lmao how drunk are you rn ??
🔥🤘🔥🤘🔥🤘🔥🤘🔥
SLAYER- DONT RUN FROM THE DEVIL. EMBRACE HIM.
Slayer South of Heaven!!
This whole album was so tough to listen to growing up... When it came out in 1985 I was only 11 and it was freightening! My older brother played it so much.. we have to hide our cassette tapes out in the bushes out front... This, Sodom, kreator, onslaught....etc... Were all in our collection... If my mom ever found them she would have burned them right in front of us lol 😂
FUCKING SLAYER PLEASE COME BACK!!!!
next do KILL AGAIN
My #1 on this record changes. Currently it’s Necrophiliac. The grove and notes of that song are pure evil. 🧟♂️
No live version of this song, except the live Intrusion video
Better than many. Hell awaits
The title track is HeavyAF…
T don't forget about Pantera probly one of the best shows I've seen Pantera slayer and bio hazard same show
TNT will have long hair next 😂
Old school SLAYER solos are the best. You should react to the 16 minute time bomb called Haunting the Chapel.
Yeah, 'At dawn they sleep' is a standout, as is 'Kill again'... There is a great live version of 'At dawn they sleep' from 1995 on the 'Live intrusion' concert video (Paul Bostaph on drums, who had replaced Dave Lombardo).
Slayer started in 1981, being huge fans of Venom, Iron Maiden, Judas Priest, Mercyful Fate... and when they met Metallica in the L.A. scene in 1982, they were hooked... Then, Jeff Hanneman (late Slayer guitarist) got into hardcore punk rock (D.R.I. ... Minor Threat ... Misfits ...) and pushed that frantic aspects into Slayer's music. The first 2 Slayer albums (and 2 EP's) were heavily influenced by Venom and early Metallica.
Kerry King (guitar) recalled that 'Reign in blood' (1986) was the first record where Slayer solidified their identity... Producer Rick Rubin, while working in the studio, turned off the reverb & echo on King and Hanneman's guitars and recorded them... It sounded way better, and King thought, "Why didn't we think of that?"
Slayer were still broke by 1986, and it took a few more years until the band really started seeing their fanfare & fortunes rising by 1990.
Live Intrusion is where I first heard At Dawn They Sleep. My buddy and I had to learn to play that song on guitar. That live show was also where I first heard there Venom cover Witching Hour.

OVERKILL should be in the big "four" and then call it the big five . My Jersey boys !!!
Do the song ‘Hell Awaits’. It’s literally the greatest metal song ever, although ‘Angel of Death’ is equally great, in a different way.
The Big 4 is the Big 4 because they were the first legit thrash metal bands to go platinum, that's not disputable. It's not about a Top 4 list of favourites, it's a Top 4 list of profit margins. I honestly don't know one single person who would put the Big 4 as their personal favourite bands, mine would be Annihilator, Testament, Overkill and Slayer but the only reason I'd keep Slayer is because Dave Lombardo was my drum teacher, sort of, I practiced my footwork speed and endurance to Slayer songs, Hell Awaits is one of my all-time top albums, it scared the shit out of my Motley Crue, Bon Jovi loving girlfriend, particularly the backwards "join us" chant at the beginning of the album.
Also, Dave is the drummer for Testament now, how awesome is that?
@@Metal_God Or Death Angel, The Ultra-Violence is a masterpiece of thrash.
I’ve been a huge Slayer fan since day 1! I’ve always said if you asked any other metal band, who are the metal Gods, they would all say Slayer! This is just a rumor but I give it a chance of happening…Kerry King and Phil Anselmo getting together! Part of the rumor is Kerry already has a bunch of songs written & ready to go! First choice for me would be Tom, Kerry & Dave getting back together but if that ain’t happening this would be an awesome alternative!
I have that pad on my jacket shoulder.
