Yesss !!! I stop tv since 20 years. A lot of movie and DVD. Last year, I was on hospital…with a tv. I found MTV…and …WTF Where are musical video ????? :):). I’m feeling old…
I miss THIS MTV. This was what “music television” was meant to be. Not just produced videos of trendy songs/artists and horrible fake “reality” shows. I was so lucky to have had this MTV during my younger impressionable years. SLAYER!!! 🤘
If MTV wants to continue how they are now, they need to change their name to RTV, which stands for Reality Television. Also, I'm 13 and wish MTV still had Headbanger's Ball.
Thumbs up if the first time you heard the Reign In Blood LP things were never the same afterwards. Arguably one of the most game changing albums of the 20th century imo.
It was one helleva 12 months. Four game changing albums came out, Puppets, then peace sells, then reign in blood, then among the living. Also 'the dark', game over, doomsday for the deceiver, eternal devastation, the force, beyond the gates, plesure to kill, roooar, darkness descends... That's just Thrash albums. Look beyond Thrash and the list becomes even more.....
I really love this band.. what pisses me off is the lack of recognition Dave gets here... If it wasn't for Dave I wouldn't have started listening to slayer 25 years ago... I understand him leaving.
Rest in peace jeff hanneman. You will forever be missed in the hearts of every slayer fan. A big part of that wonderful soudtrack to the apocalypse sound.
Well, there are electronics at play here. The toms are massively compressed. I played drums at that time, and every single sound guy would use that shit. Didnt matter how hard you hit them, it said BOOM if you even gently tapped them. They usually left the kegs and snare untouched, though. I guess it was because not one drummer back then knew how to tune the toms, so they sounded like shit.
I didn't actually know, but you see people behind drumkits apparently tuning the toms, I figured that's what they did, but I feel like people still aren't doing that very often heh
1988 small town boy of 13 walks into a city Sam The Record Man,flips through cassettes of bands he never knew existed. Stops dead on South of Heaven, because of the album cover. Reads the track list and buys his first Slayer experience. Half an hour into the drive back to his small town, it was his favorite band. I will never forget thanking my aunt for lending me the money when I got out of her car, with my walkman blasting Slayer out of those shitty foam headphones with a smile. Shout out to my Aunt, and... the guy behind the counter who said , " You will love it!. Enjoy". Thank you Slayer for all the years and all the bands I've found because of you.
First time i seen Slayer was at Newcastle's City Hall - England 1990 on their Seasons In The Abyss tour, i ended up getting a bust nose and a cut upper eye, after a huge brawl when Dave Lombardo threw a set of drumsticks into the crowd at the end of the show, apart from my injury, i ended up getting one drumstick, and still have it, with his name and signature embossed on it.
Albert the Fish I was at same gig. He threw a stick my way and i ended up feet in the air and my hands scampering around between seats for it. Never found it
Hehe, I have a similar story when Slayer performed first time in Athens in '96. It was Paul's drum stick since Dave was out of the band at that time. He through it my way, jumped and grabbed it and had to give a great fight to hold on to that stick...with hordes of metalheads all over me, but I managed... and still have it.
The fuckin amazing Dissection did an awesome cover of ''The Antichrist'' goes to show the magnitude of impact this group has... I'll never forget my first Slayer experience.
I was 12 when Decade of Aggression came out and just getting into metal. My friends went to get their CD's signed but I couldn't go because...parents. It was my first time enjoying SLAYER...I was blown away. Later I listened to the older albums and was impressed how much Tom Araya improved the songs by the time of Decade of Aggression. It was a life changing (double) album for me.
@TonyJ ammedhercunt They were big time drinkers for sure, especially back then. I'd just find it too hard to believe if any of them denied dabbling in weed from time to time. Not saying they're major pot heads or anything. U got a hilarious username btw :) Great comment, Robert Preston - LOL!
Slayer changed my whole outlook on music. Inspired me to pick up a guitar and guided me towards extreme meta, which I still jam today. 35 years later, they are still in my top 3 bands of all time! Seeing them live in the 90s was amazing! Tom used to headband like no other at the time!! 🤘🤘
Kerry's right Seasons is their best album, great vocals, their best solos, best overall songs, best guitar tone, the drumming is insane, the production sounds like you are getting punched in the face like the intro of Spirit in Black, everything, one beautiful dark album, best thrash album ever for me, 10/10.
Their live performances were second to none. I saw them 3 times in my teens late 80's/early 90's, which was the sweet spot. Reign in Blood was easily the best metal/thrash album ever made. RIB, SOH, and Seasons were the trifecta of music.
Im fortunate to seen these thrash metal gods here in El paso, texas in may 5th, 2019( Final world tour) at the Dan Haskins center with three other metal bands who opened their show ( concert) .Long live slayer& R.I.P. to their years & great thrash metal speed headbangers 🎵.

excellent vid, great tribute to the highly influential band, definitely one of my most favorite. i gotta say though, i hate it when they call fans "kids." I hear it so often, and I think, fuck, I am still going to your shows and buy your records, I'm fucking forty!
In Australia this year we had a little metal party called SLAYER FEST where I saw Phill and The Illegals for the first time. Soooo heavy music ain't dead yet!!
Seen Slayer Show No Mercy Tour twice way back in the summer of 1984 at the Country Club in Reseda,.ca . they played in June & Sept. I would of liked to see the show in Irvine, .ca the other day which is supposed to be part of there final tour ? What a great run of almost 4 decades. 🤘
This entire interview, sounds like tom and Kerry, are trying to one up, each other, on the creation of their albums?? 🤣🤣🤣 "but I did this and tom didn't!" Tom: "well I did these 6 songs, and Kerry was going through depression and shit." 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
they aren't friends and they don't get along. it's pretty well documented. though things were probably different back then. you know, before Kerry started dressing like a gay leather daddy and taking himself way too seriously.
Makes ur band better to keep coming up with better n better shit. Esp if u have alot of stuff u can use on one record then save the rest for the next or vice versa
@@sacrificialsuicide8007 i mean kerry wrote a lot of the lyrics (the shitty 8th grader fuck you mom and dad im an athiest ones) but jeff wrote all the good riffs and songs as a whole, thats why repentless is so soulless and only has like 3 good songs (one of which is an instrumental one of which they released early as a single and one of which jeff is credited for)
This was the first Slayer record I bought. As back then, when I'd want to check out what a band had to offer, I'd buy the live album as they'd play songs from their different records. First Ozzy record I bought was Live and Loud.
David Vincent introducing Tom and Kerry from Slayer is the most metal thing MTV never did again.
I was thinking the same thing!
Is this Morbid Angel David Vincent??
What a voice!
@@MorbidVisions310 Yes

Dave's drumming on 'War Ensemble' is just mindblowing... Fantastic.

There will never be another band like Slayer.
Sodom
An enigma of their time - luckily we got records and bootlegs.
Um um um was there other bands in contention
I'd not been aware
All I hear is
SLAYER
There won’t be another band like slayer but there will be better bands than slayer like Justin Beiber
Ever
When MTV was actually about music.
Tony BP: yeah & when people wouldn't pay for & accept News that push their own political party & opinion down our shallow minds
@TonyJ ammedhercunt thanks man - I was losing it - trying to find interesting conversation here is like looking for love at a porn shop😵

Me too
Decade Of Aggression was the first Slayer album I owned. Great live album.
Same!!! Was a Christmas gift in 1994… I have 5 versions of it now 😅
Near perfect greatest hits of the first five albums
Slayer makes me happy

Love
Absolutely

Funny how that works, right?
I love how Tom Araya is the softest spoken guy you'd ever meet.
Charismatic

I couldn't say. I was just a kid. Unpopular opinion but I like Seasons, South, and Mercy more than Reign in Blood.
first time i heard it was in 86, I had to leave earth
I'm 31 an now just gettin into them I'm so grateful for slayer wish I woulda noticed them earlier so I could see them live
I've never headbanged more to an album than Reign in Blood. That album is pure aggression.
What a legendary band. Nothing tops 80s and early 90s slayer
The only extreme band that could tour big arenas on their own.and we lost them.
There really is no secret to Slayer's success great songs, great playing no bullshit.
As if they did a deal with Satan to get hits
I really love this band.. what pisses me off is the lack of recognition Dave gets here... If it wasn't for Dave I wouldn't have started listening to slayer 25 years ago... I understand him leaving.

Yeah Macho man Randy Savage.

Screaming for hours on stage every night is a catharsis
Hey Jeff d'ya wanna take part in our Slayer documentary?
...
Jeff: Nope.
Classic Jeff
Tom Araya is a class act. Forget genres and musical chapel, Slayer is a great band period.
I love Slayer. What you see is what you get. Even in 2018.
RIP Jeff Hanneman 1964-2013 jeff and dime tearing it up in the afterlife. RIP
RIP JH and DIME
Now big vin is gone...
He's on drums
Jeff Hanneman rather.... what you get is what you see

David Vincent and Slayer on MTV ?! Surreal. Amazing time !!
And Vanessa who was married to The Almighty's Ricky Warwick at the time. She was hot back then
In interviews tom always smiling and can't stop laughing great guy
0:25 Kerry does his patented sunglass touch during an interview. To be seen at all interviews since.
It's a nervous twitch.
Man oh man Daves drumming😍
I saw him solo at a grip inc. show for like 30+ minutes. Star of the show, once in a lifetime experience. Go see them if you can.
If they didn't have Dave on drums, they would of sounded weaker. SLAYER !!!
Rest in peace jeff hanneman. You will forever be missed in the hearts of every slayer fan. A big part of that wonderful soudtrack to the apocalypse sound.
God i miss headbangers ball
I love Tom Araya. He's always looks like he's having a great time.
The best era for David Vincent Blessed are the Sick
I love how the bass drums sound like bass drums
Dank Now bands use treble drums
Well, there are electronics at play here. The toms are massively compressed. I played drums at that time, and every single sound guy would use that shit. Didnt matter how hard you hit them, it said BOOM if you even gently tapped them. They usually left the kegs and snare untouched, though. I guess it was because not one drummer back then knew how to tune the toms, so they sounded like shit.
I didn't actually know, but you see people behind drumkits apparently tuning the toms, I figured that's what they did, but I feel like people still aren't doing that very often heh
Dank ,they're still awesome as can be.Much respect to the band.My favorite was 95 & before.Still my favorite band these days.
Dave does tune his toms, he does a drum clinic (Master class in Belfast video) where he talks about it. Tunes the toms to Mary had a Little Lamb.
Dave Lombardo one of the best drummers,aggressive and faster
It’s so cool to see this again. Thanks for downloading . SLAYER…
Ya, it's good to see this. SLAYER!!!
The real Slayer!! 100% of Slayer!!
DOA double-cd is kept as one of my faves..The intensity of aggression genuinely unleashed of this historic record is beyond words.
And this is the era when Slayer were at the top of their game.

Timeless music. Slayer is fucking amazing.
Dave Lombardo drums snare sounds perfect and crisp
Slayer's 'Decade of Aggression' is my favourite live album......and always will be! \m/
There's a strong adrenaline rush, immediately to catch up with the music. SLAYERs music and only SLAYER!!!
Dave Lombardo's haircut at 2:52 ...Yeah, that's definitely 1991.
Haha fuck oath it is
I miss that Dave haircut 😔😔😔😔
King was hilarious back then during interviews, same with Araya...1990 and 1991 were 2 great years for metal.
First time i seen Slayer was at Newcastle's City Hall - England 1990 on their Seasons In The Abyss tour, i ended up getting a bust nose and a cut upper eye, after a huge brawl when Dave Lombardo threw a set of drumsticks into the crowd at the end of the show, apart from my injury, i ended up getting one drumstick, and still have it, with his name and signature embossed on it.
Albert the Fish I was at the same gig but I think it was 91. Sorry for being picky.
haha at a Pantera show i caught Vinnie's drum stick but i was immediately tackled by 40 guys.
Albert the Fish
I was at same gig. He threw a stick my way and i ended up feet in the air and my hands scampering around between seats for it. Never found it

Just drink a shot of liquor every time Kerry touches his sunglasses and you will be drunk after this interview. Try it...funny game.
Awesome upload. Seasons is probably my favourite Slayer Album.
One of the best live bands i have ever seen! Slayer live is so good!
Slayer has always been great, even after this moment. Even if It turned a corner, it exists in the corner of its fans' hearts!
tom totally botched the 3rd line ''judgementdey dur vanger blangish arrives''
he was baked off his ass like always lmao
LOl yep he did.. Judgment day the second coming arrives...
Couldn’t have gone more wrong. Most likely he just forgot the lyrics
This album still kills it. Toms voice sounds great.
Can't believe I never saw this. When the double live album came out in 91, it was on continuously for months. Siiiiiiiiiick doco
HOW KOOL TO FINALLY SEE some behind the scenes. Long live SLAYER!
The fuckin amazing Dissection did an awesome cover of ''The Antichrist'' goes to show the magnitude of impact this group has... I'll never forget my first Slayer experience.
Tom was right about feeling like your on feathers after a show. What better place to let out all the rage stored up, than at a SLAYER concert!
How in the world did he go from being a respiratory therapist to a business playing bass guitar in Slayer, that is quite a transition.
I bet tom misses headbanging like that. Damn he was brutal!
Yes indeed Tom. Metal and especially Slayer has always been a release for me. \m/
Immense thank you to the uploader !! Much appreciated 🤘
Had the cd back in the 90s and I was so happy to come across the vinyl in Berlin at some random yard sale. One of my most cherished records ...
Slayer rocks, its a shame that they are no longer, but that makes everything they've done all the more classic.
What I loved of
Decade of Aggression - Slayer represented what I grew up with & felt deep within thy bloody soul

why did 1991 have to end?
Because Broken by Nine Inch Nails and Vulgar Display of Power by Pantera came out in 1992.
