I write reviews for music blogspots sometimes and other shit abut favorite bands and for me Slayer has had it's hooks in me since 85' and yes I still get down here and there with them.

I assume most of you all that were into them you guy's went with the 1st 5 albums with Dave Lombardo as drums was the pinnacle of their thrashy sound Seasons in the Abyss being their last decent album before they tried their hand at "groove metal" or "nu-metal" as some dorks call it.

Well enough of my blithering on and sounding like an arrogant music snob

I tried to listen to their 2009 World Painted Blood sorry I didn't leave a link as it was that boring...

I gave this album a few times to really sink in as an attempt to hear anything of notewothy? NOPE... shit was at best trying to catch lightning in bottle twice (or in this case fifth attempt albeit the first five albums with original lineup) but sadly falling very flat just a snooze fest.

Yes they possibly heard their greatest sound was before the turn of the millennium and they got the original lineup together again for a solid 11 songs! As with anything after the smoke clears this album sounds like a Slayer version of Metallica's Death Magnetic all hype no strength just boring.

ahhh Divine Intervention was a solid non Lombardo album

If you say so never was much for their punk covers as I felt indifferent entirely.

This goes so hard. Probably my favorite Dead Meadow album. The guitar and drums on this sound so raw and powerful.

SNL is awful & I'm not really into The Weeknd, but OPN is so good it balances it out

Really disappointed I missed Destroyer in Philly a couple days ago. Some of my friends went, it sounds like it was a great show

Went to a concert last night and Saint Sister, a group I never heard of, opened:

Pretty decent live, gave me slightly-happier portishead vibes in person.
