Slayer sounds too much like a lot of Slipknot for me. If youre gonna go that heavy, dont expect me to pay attention. Theres nothing to see after a few minutes.

Frequently getting recommended Slayer by friends, but it just does nothing for me.

Dude slayer didn't sound anything like slipknot. At east not prime slayer from like 79 to the early 90s. Or even when they made undisputed attitude and switched it up.

I haven't really heard slayer since around God hates us all in the early 2000s and a couple newer ones at a show but i would be really disappointed if they put out some slipknot sounding shit.

Slipknot makes a lot of noise sometimes.

So does Slayer and any real heavy band. Thats for the show, or to bang your head in the car.

Shit.... Slayer is like THE heavy band, along with Anthrax. Didnt get much better than that, man.

Slayer has never really been my jam. There's some tracks from Show No Mercy I dig, but Kerry King and Tom Araya don't do too much for me.

I like my metal to be more metal than Slayer metal.

I won't say they aren't metal enough cause fuck it's slayer that seems like a really pretentious thing to say. Lol.

But I prefer heavier stuff.

Oh Slayer is metal enough that's for sure, I listen to them regularly, they're cool.

But yeah, overall I prefer it to be heavier. Death metal is my favorite genre.

Black metal and death metal are both my favourite genres.

Also neko case is my favourite artist and the new pornographers are my favourite band but whatever metal is the way.

Well of course there is nothing to see. Music is auditory, not visual.

I remember going to a Slayer headliner and kinda laughing at how they were the least heavy band on the bill.

Slayer aren't that "heavy"
I like Slayer alot but they're just a standard half step tuned down thrash metal band with atonal and dissonant riffs thrown in the mix to give them a more sinister and evil feel than their contemporaries.
I'd say bands like Sodom Kreator were "heavier" than slayer.
I don't know why Slayer to most people represent the peak "heaviness" of metal.

Slayer was sort of a turning point for metal

Like, it's the point where the genre got the heaviest and still be good

Yeah, out of the big four I'd rank Megadeth>Metallica>Slayer>Anthrax. There's something about Slayer I just don't like.

Slayer is cool. Probably the metal-est band I listen to. I cant get into a lot of the heavier stuff because the goofy vocals usually kill it for me. Im sure theres plenty of good stuff out there, but I cant be bothered to find it.
