“I know who you're talking about!”   So, we did a thing… After almost 6 years into this podcast, this is the first time we've ever done a BREAKDOWN of a single track, and what better way to kick things off than SLAYER's ANGEL OF DEATH, which is without question “one of the most perfect thrash metal songs EVER written” and also just happens to be the killer opener on one of the most perfect thrash metal albums ever recorded, the Rick Rubin produced legendary 1986 masterpiece, Reign In Blood.    Time to relive the memories of yore, including the joys of “lunchtime and slimy fingers”, and decide whether or not you will be joining “Team Hot Pocket or Team Snooch”.  Prepare to comprehend what “abacinate” actually means and understand why it is so horrifying in context, realize that “Manghoul” isn't phonetically accurate but does make a gruesomely fitting nickname, and discover the reason why “time doesn't matter and isn't important” when you JOIN US as we go BEYOND THE BREAKDOWN  into the essence of everything that makes ANGEL OF DEATH “one of the most perfect thrash metal songs EVER written”.   Visit www.metalnerdery.com/podcast for more on this episode   Help Support Metal Nerdery https://www.patreon.com/metalnerderypodcast Leave us a Voicemail to be played on a future episode: 980-666-8182   Metal Nerdery Tees and Hoodies – metalnerdery.com/merch and kindly leave us a review and/or rating on the iTunes/Apple Podcasts - Spotify or your favorite Podcast app Listen on iTunes, Spotify, Podbean, or wherever you get your Podcasts.

1985. Back To The Future would become the highest grossing film of the year, the Live Aid benefit would be hosted simultaneously in 2 different venues on 2 different continents, and the Coca-Cola Company would experience a catastrophic failure with “New Coke” by (once again) failing to put its namesake ingredient from the ORIGINAL “Original Formula” back in their legendary beverage.    We are well aware that there are multiple listicles already out there featuring the “Top 20 Metal Albums of 1985” because 40 years is quite the chronological landmark. Nevertheless, we still felt compelled to construct our own list. It's not necessarily all thrash, but it's not all “gloves of shame” either. In short, it's a pretty substantial sampler of the albums that WE feel represent everything great about metal in1985.   It's time to shake off those “cobwebs” and prepare for some “extraordinary news” as well as “a story of redemption and forgiveness” regarding a previous negative review we received. Learn about the earliest documented “fake news” regarding Elizabeth Bathory's alleged use of “skin conditioner” and get a sneak preview of the new album from “Dick Johnson & The Ball Brothers” when you JOIN US for the TOP 20 METAL ALBUMS OF 1985.   Visit www.metalnerdery.com/podcast for more on this episode Help Support Metal Nerdery https://www.patreon.com/metalnerderypodcast Leave us a Voicemail to be played on a future episode: 980-666-8182 Metal Nerdery Tees and Hoodies – metalnerdery.com/merch and kindly leave us a review and/or rating on the iTunes/Apple Podcasts - Spotify or your favorite Podcast app Listen on iTunes, Spotify, Podbean, or wherever you get your Podcasts.

“I'm just letting you know; I was holding back…it may get worse…”   TITLE TRACKS are not always the ultra-obvious, one trick pony they'd seem to be. Sometimes it IS ultra-obvious and is smack dab in the middle of the chorus where it belongs, sometimes only one of the words might be included in the chorus, and still other times “the chorus is not explicitly mentioned” anywhere within the title track at all.    As you can tell, the rules regarding TITLE TRACKS are often “unburdened by what has been” particularly when factoring in all the confusing rules and conditions that seem to be a part of the burdensome phenomenon known as TITLE TRACKS. But while everything that preceded this sentence may not make any logical sense to a logical person with a logically functioning mind, it's nothing that we can't power through and figure out by working together.

Back in the early 90's (along with hometown thrash titans Ghost Story, Akathesia, and Nihilist) one of the most unique bands to have dominated the local metal scene and trailblazed the path for rap metal before it was even a genre was Atlanta cross-over, groove metal pioneers, STUCK MOJO.    Armed with the aural onslaught of Rich Ward's behemoth guitar sound and the “no bones about it” ferocity of Bonz's rhymes, STUCK MOJO were definitely THE band to experience live, with one of their most memorable shows transpiring when “The Duke of Metal” and company performed inside a record store at Gwinnett Place Mall during peak business hours, resulting in a joyful noise for the fans who gathered and a case of “instant regret” for mall management who didn't realize what they'd committed to until it was too late (“Stranger Things” indeed…).   Get ready to comprehend why hyperinflation and over-monetization have transformed “toothless & stinkless” into premium upgrade options, always be accommodating enough to say “They” if you're unsure of how to address someone and don't know if “They” are actually “a dude or a chick…or a group of people”.

Follow us-https://linktr.ee/metalmaniacsmi **Episode 9: Unleashing the Titans - The Biography of Slayer and the Birth of Extreme Metal** Welcome back to The Metal Maniacs Podcast, where the relentless roar of guitars and the thunderous double bass drums rule supreme! I'm Jay Ingersoll, and with me is the unwavering sentinel of metal knowledge, Nick Modd. Today, we embark on a two-part odyssey through the hallowed halls of metal history, as we delve into the iconic biography of one of the most influential bands ever - Slayer. Joining us as a guest host is the formidable metal connoisseur, Jon Rohn. *An Overture to Chaos: Slayer's Genesis* In this first installment of our two-part Slayer series, we unravel the early days of the band that would go on to redefine the very essence of heavy metal. Slayer's origins are shrouded in the smog of Southern California, where four young musicians, Kerry King, Jeff Hanneman, Tom Araya, and Dave Lombardo, united to create a sound that would become synonymous with darkness, speed, and ferocity. We journey through their humble beginnings, the formation of the band, and the influences that fueled their infernal creativity. *Pioneering the Unholy Trinity: Slayer and Extreme Metal* Slayer's emergence on the scene marked a watershed moment in the history of music. We dissect how Slayer's relentless aggression and lyrical themes catapulted them to the forefront of the burgeoning extreme metal genre. From the raw brutality of their debut album "Show No Mercy" to the seismic impact of "Hell Awaits," we delve into the albums that set the stage for their reign of blood. *A Symphony of Horror: Slayer's Dark Artistry* The imagery and lyrical content of Slayer have long been a subject of fascination and controversy. We explore the band's penchant for exploring dark themes, the influence of horror movies and literature on their music, and the fervor with which they embraced the macabre. Slayer's ability to create an atmosphere of dread and chaos set them apart as true masters of the dark arts. *The Thrash Titans: Slayer's Signature Sound* Few bands have achieved the level of musical prowess and intensity that Slayer has. We dissect the components of their signature sound, from Kerry King and Jeff Hanneman's searing guitar work to the relentless rhythm section of Tom Araya and Dave Lombardo. The intricate guitar solos, blistering drum fills, and Tom Araya's signature roar all played a role in forging Slayer's sonic identity. In this episode, we have the privilege of being joined by a guest host, Jon Rohn, a metal aficionado with a deep appreciation for Slayer's impact on the genre. Jon brings his unique perspective to the discussion, adding depth and insight to the band's biography and their role in shaping the metal landscape. Join Jay Ingersoll, Nick Modd, and guest host Jon Rohn as we embark on the epic journey of Slayer's biography in this first part of a two-part series. Whether you're a die-hard Slayer fan, a lover of extreme metal, or simply a seeker of musical history, this episode promises to be an enlightening exploration of the band that pushed the boundaries of metal to its very limits. So, prepare for a sonic onslaught, sharpen your musical sensibilities, and join us in celebrating the pioneers of extreme metal. The Metal Maniacs Podcast continues to be your portal to the heart and soul of metal, where legends like Slayer and their indomitable legacy are celebrated.

Metal Debate Album Review - Seasons Dreaming Death (Graveripper)

The Great Metal Debate Podcast

Welcome to another Metal Debate album review, checking out the debut full-length release from Indianapolis metallers Graveripper titled “Seasons Dreaming Death.” Graveripper fuse speed metal, thrash metal, and black metal elements into a consistent sound, such that fans of any of those genres will find their music familiar and welcome. Let's go through track-by-track to give a full accounting of what we have… The intro track “Into The Grave” is a phenomenal song that goes straight for the throat with razor sharp intensity. Here we find an intense musical experience propelled by high-speed, dynamic and dexterous drumming. Overtop are crunchy guitar riffs that mesh nicely with the clanking, rolling bass-lines that rattle through their paces. The gruff, shrieking vocal rasps aren't far from the gravelly-voiced air of black metal yet still bring more of an enunciated feel reminiscent of thrash. Graveripper keep the tempo at top speed on the album's second sonic offering “Ripped And Torn Apart,” a song title that perfectly describes the track's effect. I love hearing that bass kick in early on, adding the low end and filling out the aural assault spectrum. “Divine Incantations” is an economical track that still packs a punch per pound. Drummer Jacob Lett does a phenomenal job behind the kit here as he does throughout the album. This is pure mosh pit fodder. The album title track “Seasons Dreaming Death” opens angry with blessed dissonance, then devolves into more linear pacing but retaining the same combative attitude. It's a well-structured song with a nice little interlude prior to the end that adds atmosphere and depth. The bass is again on full display. There's plenty of aggression but also a lot of color and welcome variation. Graveripper come back with blazing speed on the intro to the next track, “Premeditated,” though it settles into a more moderated tempo as we move further forward. The hammering drum attacks continue throughout, as aggressive as ever. The graduated intro following the bellowed lyric “only my death can set me free” is apropos, although through the bulk of the song you will have been maniacally banging your skull. I really enjoy the way the band deliver this one, just a splendid blend of full-throttle speed melded with the thrash aesthetic. Coming in at under two minutes “Influx Of Fear” is an abbreviated tale to say the least, making the aforementioned “Divine Incantations” seem like an epic track. It is constructed similar to the previous song, but with an even catchier riff and killer ending lead break. “Resist Against The Light” maintains the uncompromising pace, but with a little different feel and melodic nuance. This is one of my favorite songs in the mix, somewhat reminiscent of Hell Awaits era Slayer. Track eight - “Red Skies” – has almost a power metal-esque feel to the intro and bridge, a change-up that I like a lot. Something like what I'd imagine I'd hear if one could arrange a Dragonforce – Toxic Holocaust collaboration. “And I Curse Reality” has a furious, well-written riff but also great melody - you can feel the guitarist's fingers dancing across the fretboard. This song builds an atmosphere of malice, as welcome harmonics transition into a brief lead and then more fury. The finale is dissonant and chill, matching its title - “Only Coldness.” There's some bone-snapping time changes thrown in that really add depth to the song and never allow the listener to grow comfortable with it. I love the hesitation in the vocal delivery on the chorus: “Only coldness… Awaits!” Ending the album with fantastic effort. Graveripper really rage throughout this one. There's a lot of youthful energy on this record, which makes me excited to follow the band and see how they develop their sound in the coming years. For its genre this is a powerful album and one I think will be appreciated for many years. I'm giving “Seasons Dreaming Death” a 9 out of 10.

Welcome to Talkin' Slayer: A Podcast and Half-@ssed Audiobook. This is Episode 02: Jeff Hanneman: The Legend, the Myth, the Man. ps. Albert Cuellar RIP. Talkin' Slayer is the first podcast dedicated to Slayer, the thrashiest of the Big Four thrash metal bands. Today's topic is the late, great Jeff Hanneman. Again. And we belatedly note the passing of Slayer album artist Albert Cuellar. Hanneman passed away, very unexpectedly, ten years ago last week. On the previous episode, we talked about his role in the band. This week, we talk about about the person. Before we do that, we note the passing of Albert Cuellar, the accomplished artist who collaborated with Slayer to create the covers for Live Undead and Hell Awaits. Next week, we'll start to look at Slayer's place in the all-time pantheon of heavy metal and rock & roll in general. After some introductory episodes, Talkin' Slayer tells the story of the Los Angeles heavy metal institution, in chronological order: how the band happened, when things fell apart, how they put them back together, and what it all meant — no, MEANS.

Chick Tracts, what are they? You'll find out in our upcoming three-part series that covers a fundamentalist comic artist who was a hidden architect of the satanic panic, illuminati, and gay agenda hysterias. Jack Chick printed hundreds of millions of his bible tracts, small stapled together cartoon booklets full of blood sacrificing witches, evil secret societies, and sensationalized sin, based on the stories of "experts" like a druid high priest, a Catholic secret agent, and two women battling demons in a witch infested hospital.

“Yeah, yeah…” For SLAYER fans, their merciless 1983 debut SHOW NO MERCY and their even darker, more progressive 1985 follow up HELL AWAITS both possess a somewhat more sinister sound and atmosphere relative to the totality of their catalog. These first two records mark the beginning of their development into the fiercest, darkest, and evilest of The Big Four of thrash, featuring a virtually continuous “all-you-can-eat” onslaught of death, Hell, and Satan. Now, imagine what would happen if you were to pit SHOW NO MERCY and HELL AWAITS against each other? What if both albums had to get in the ring, pound it out, and “fight till death” (so to speak)? Which one would reign victorious?  While both albums are widely regarded as quintessential to Slayer's origin story and the evolution of their sonic brutality in the burgeoning new world of speed and thrash metal, to echo the words of Connor MacLeod: “There can be only ONE!” It's time to get ready for “some snuggling and a rubdown” after you finish up with your nighttime “beach orgies” and enter the octagon to face the “WWF Baphomet” who will take on "ALL up and comers” from over yonder, down in the holler, and deep within the confines of the metropolitan tri-county area. SU NIOJ (*Ahem* Sorry…) JOIN US as we pit two of the darkest, most pivotally important albums in thrash history against each other in our brand-new METAL NERDERY HEAD-TO-HEAD DEATH MATCH series featuring the straight-ahead thrash evilocity of SHOW NO MERCY against the diabolically progressive darkness of HELL AWAITS.   Visit www.metalnerdery.com/podcast for more on this episode Leave us a Voicemail to be played on a future episode: 980-666-8182Metal Nerdery Tees and Hoodies – metalnerdery.com/merch and kindly leave us a review and/or rating on the iTunes/Apple Podcasts - Spotify or your favorite Podcast app Listen on iTunes, Spotify, Podbean, Google Podcasts or wherever you get your Podcasts.

Every Album Ever with Mike Mansour & Alex Volz

To celebrate our 30th episode, we invited our buddy Matt Berlinsky (@meistermatt) from the Stone & Steel Radio Show (stoneandsteelradioshow.com) to join us as we honor the almighty Slayer. Slayer were the first of thrash’s Big 4 to break up, so we knew it was our duty to discuss their entire discography in extreme detail. We all know Slayer is a great band, but we don’t pull any punches here—Slayer found a sound that worked and didn’t veer from it at all throughout their 3 decade lifespan. If you enjoy Slayer, this is not a bad thing. If you don’t enjoy Slayer, we probably already don’t like you.Closing track: “Angel of Death” from Reign in Blood (1986)Check out our episode playlists on Spotify! https://open.spotify.com/user/motherpuncherincMike’s Picks:Reign in Blood (1986) — Best Album, Personal FavoriteUndisputed Attitude (1996) — Worst AlbumGod Hates Us All (2001) — Least FavoriteAlex’s Picks: Reign in Blood (1986) — Best AlbumSeasons in the Abyss (1990) — Personal FavoriteUndisputed Attitude (1996) — Worst AlbumMatt’s Picks:Reign in Blood (1986) — Best Album, Personal FavoriteDivine Intervention (1994) — Worst AlbumAlbums we discussed this episode…Show No Mercy (1983)Haunting the Chapel EP (1984)Hell Awaits (1985)Reign in Blood (1986)South of Heaven (1988)Seasons in the Abyss (1990)Divine Intervention (1994)Undisputed Attitude (1996)Diabolus in Musica (1998)God Hates Us All (2001)Christ Illusion (2006)World Painted Blood (2009)Repentless (2015)Follow Mike on Instagram @popejesseventura, Alex @motherpuncher, and Matt @meistermatt

By the fall of 1986, the Los Angeles heavy metal band Slayer had two solid but unspectacular records, 1984’s Haunting the Chapel and 1985’s Hell Awaits, to their name. Meanwhile, producer Rick Rubin had started a record company, Def Jam, in his dorm room in NYU, and after a handful of successful rap releases, was on the lookout for new talent for his label. In a New York City nightclub, he found it in Slayer. D.X. Ferris, in his taut and entertaining 33 1/3 series bookReign in Blood, explains how this seemingly incongruous paring of a rap guru and four speed-metal merchants ended up making rock history with their 1986 thrash-metal release Reign in Blood. Rubin, whose genius has always resided in his ability to help artists capture the essence of their greatness, found the band’s lengthy, more traditional heavy metal songs unappealing. What he liked, Ferris argues, was the faster, heavier, and aggressive aspects of Slayer’s material. This made him a perfect partner for the band’s late guitarist, Jeff Hanneman, who loved hardcore punk rock almost as much as he loved heavy metal. The resulting album, Ferris maintains, is “the gold standard for extreme heavy metal.” The LP’s ten songs are played with military precision and at a frenzied pace. And its lyrical themes are nothing if not disturbing: serial killers, witches burned at the stake, pandemics, the fall of Heaven, and perhaps most extreme of all, a meditation on Nazi sadist Josef Mengele, Auschwitz’s depraved “Angel of Death.” This last song, as Ferris shows, stirred charges of anti-Semitism and encouraged CBS Records to back away from its deal to distribute the LP. By drawing on interviews with everyone from members of Slayer to fans, the witty and engaging Ferris makes a convincing case for the album’s significance and its continuing influence in the world of heavy metal. D.X. Ferris is the author of Reign in Blood and has contributed pieces for RollingStone.com, the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum, Popdose, Village Voice, and Decibel, among other publications. He is also the creator of Suburban Metal Dad, Heavy Metal Game of Thrones Reviews and is the proprietor of Pentagrammarian.com, the world’s only metal-oriented grammar and usage website.
