As some of you probably know one of arguably the top 5 Metal bands ever the almighty Slayer has officialy called it a day after capping off the last 2 shows on their final farewell tour over the weekend.

I only got to see them perform live once sadly but it will be a cherished memory.

Let's discuss the band or throw out some of our favorite songs or covers (theres a fuckton of covers out there, lots of good ones!)

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slayer
After more than three decades of recording and performing, Slayer announced in January 2018 that it would embark on its final world tour, which began that May and ended in November 2019; the band is not breaking up but will not perform live anymore.
Huh.

I respect the band, but I never could get into them. My metal needs to have a hook and a groove to it. Straight up speed and high-end thrash doesn't captivate me. Take Raining Blood. If the entire song was just the first 40 seconds, it'd be alright.

I know. My first concert was Pantera, Slayer and Morbid Angel but they tarnished so much once Kerry became more of an egomaniac and once Jeff passed and they booted lombardo I was just done with them.

Saw me twice that I can remember and it was fun as hell both times, I wish I saw them more recently though. Oh well, their final tour lasted like 3 years and Im sure theyll still pull a Judas Priest and be all lololol its not a tour we swear when they play more shows.

On Through the Night and High n Dry rule. I dont particularly care for the MILF pop rock/metal they made Pyromania onward. Maybe Ill give those albums listens again and get it.


Hysteria and Pyromania are both their 10x platinum (diamond) albums. And they stuck to their old roots. It was grand.

Def Lep had more studio albums according to the wiki, but they didn't not even compare to their top tier albums.

But I looked them them up. All of Def Leppard has their original members.

They had a good run. While I've heard Raining Blood before, I never really got into them until high school. When I first got my Reign In Blood CD I was blown away.

Slayer have sucked for years now but Show No Mercy to Seasons in the Abyss is one of the greatest run of albums in the history of metal.

I saw them play twice.

The first time was in 04 with Slipknot, Lamb of God and Hatebreed.

The second time was in 06 with Unearth.

Never got to see them but theyll be back eventually. Look at Cre. Literally just did a farewell 2 years ago and coming back in 2020.

I'll have to check out some of the recommendations in this topic! I am a novice to Slayer. Aside from the obvious song picks like Raining Blood and Seasons in the Abyss, the only Slayer album I have is their 1st album, Show no Mercy. It's a pretty kickass album, although I imagine they dial in on their signature sound an album or two later.
