i'll wait though..so far reviews arent too bad.

AxlUlrich

anyone else got the new album yet?

damn it's alot better than i expected...definately their best album in 16 years for me anyways

"Skeleton Christ" and "Consfearcy" are me fave tracks so far.

I haven't picked it up yet, but i've heard it a couple times thru in my buddies car. Lombardo is fucking awesome on the album and it's refreshing to hear araya's voice and not this growling nonsense. Real happy with what i've heard. thrash at its finest.

no offence to Bostaph etc..but it's fucking great to have Dave back can't wait to see them on tour!
and yeh i agree with Tom's vocals too...finally he's not shouting or growling like on GHUA and DIM.

Listen to it for the 1st time and it sounds alot better then the last 4 albums.

gave it a listen on their myspace page. sounds awesome! i'm still liking cult and jihad the most...probably because they were the ones i heard initially. this is one i will definitely pick up and will be in my cd rotation for a while. slayer!

AxlUlrich

am pretty surprised at the bad responses this album is getting so far...i don't mind that the album sounds the same etc cos that's Slayer for you.
close to 3 weeks and am still playing this album at least twice a day.
it's slowing becoming my 2nd favorite Slayer album too...surpassing South of Heaven.

Well, here in Holland everybody says it's the best album of Slayer since Seasons in the Abyss and I think that's right. I like Flesh Storm, Cult and Supremist very much.

And this new album still kick some serious ass!!! Wish Metallica returned with this kind of album.

I wouldn't mind another trash album from MetallicA but i think we arent ever gonna see that happen again..especially judging from their new songs they been debuting on tour.
at the same time im glad MetallicA have moved on...yeh Christ Illusion,like most Slayer albums, is great but i get bored of it pretty easily..could say the same for most trash albums
still..it's a great album and seeing the original line up on tour again just made my 2006 alot better

It's easily their best album since Seasons in the Abyss. Especially Undisputed Attitude, Diabolus in Musica and God Hates Us All aren't very strong albums.

definitely their best album since Seasons...i actually quite enjoyed Diabolus in Musica,love the intro for Bitter Peace..but i have problems liking the whole God Hates Us All album..only has some good tracks imo.

From that 3 albums is Diabolus the best. But still it don't give you the feeling like the albums in the '80 did. And totally agreed, God Hates Us All is their worst attempt.

been listening to Seasons in the Abyss on heavy rotation recently..what a great album!

some updates on the "Eyes of the Insane" single
cd single part 2 looks decent enough to buy.

SLAYER will be issuing an "Eyes of the Insane" two-part CD single and seven-inch vinyl in Europe on November 20 via Warner. The complete details are as follows:

CD Single Part One:

01. Eyes of the Insane (album version)
02. Eyes of the Insane (live version)

Every now and then I need my dosis of heavy metal, especially Deicide and Slayer...but not always...

cool have fun man
saw them this year and fuck it was awesome!
maybe cos they played alot of the older stuff..seeing Dead Skin Mask and Seasons in the Abyss played was just like a dream.

Slayer appear briefly on Spin too..sick picture..reminds me of the cover for Serenity in Murder
