SLAYER: Video Footage From Recording Studio Posted Online
- June 2, 2006
|
|
A 41-second video clip of SLAYER in the studio recording their new album has been posted online. Check it out in the following formats: Windows Media 220KWindows Media 300KWindows Media 450KWindows Media 700KQuicktime 220KQuicktime 450KQuicktime 700KAs previously reported, Warner Music Germany has uploaded the cover artwork for the new SLAYER album, due on July 25 via American Recordings/ Warner Bros. Records. Check it out at this location. SLAYER's still-untitled follow-up to "God Hates Us All", which was released on Sept. 11, 2001, is the group's first new album with their four original members since 1990's "Seasons in the Abyss". In a recent interview with MTV, SLAYER frontman Tom Araya said about the new album, "It's fast — maybe faster than anything we've done before. No one's going to be disappointed. It's going to be brutal." A snippet of a new SLAYER track, entitled "Cult", is available at the band's official web site, www.slayer.net. SLAYER will preview their first album in five years with a five-song EP, "Eternal Pyre", exclusively available at Hot Topic stores. The CD will include "Cult", the lone new song the band plans to play live on the upcoming Unholy Alliance Tour. "Cult" will also be available on iTunes on June 6. The track can be previewed on Slayer.net beginning that day at 6:06 a.m. PST. Araya's two-hour May 5 minor gall-bladder surgery forced SLAYER to suspend the June 6 launch of this summer's Unholy Alliance Tour, which also features LAMB OF GOD, MASTODON, CHILDREN OF BODOM and THINE EYES BLEED. The trek will instead kick off June 15 in Camden, New Jersey, and run through July 26 in Denver.

That sounded like Slayer all right. The Slayer that I LOVE. Sounds like the boys are getting back on track with Lombardo back in the fold. Not that I didn't like the stuff with Bostaph, but I predict this will be the best Slayer album since Seasons. I could be wrong on that, but as a Slayer fan for 20 years now I have a feeling all of us fans are in for a great album....

When will Slayer do something that doesn't sound like it belongs in 1986?
I used to love the old Slayer. A lot. But they refused to adapt or change, and as a result, the music has suffered.
I detest what Metallica has become, but at least they did new shit. Not that I like it, but I give them credit for at least trying.
As a fan it pains me to say this, but Slayer is stuck in reverse.

Maiden AND Slayer are legends. They both have influenced countless bands. And they BOTH kick ass. So shut the hell up! Anyway, the clip sounded awesome. Obviously, they selected the specific part they would show us, but it sure did sound like the thrashy slayer of old.

no, alot of bands wanna to push into the next step with new sound and new gears! they don't wanna play same old sound like it was back in 1980s because that is old. so Slayer is not stuck in reverse , they just want to move on with new ideas instead of playing old shit is boring!

DDT you cracked me up this time. Saying all Slayer albums sound the same, repeating themselves. And then who does it turn out that you like? Iron Maiden. Ha ha ha. Maiden are a good band, but they are one of the most repetitive acts in metal. If I have to hear yet another Am, F, G, E progression from Steve Harris, I will give up and start listening to AC-DC again. Stop throwing stones from that glass house of yours, you kamikaze maniac.

I realize that most Slayer fans can't handle the changes in the last couple of albums, but at the VERY LEAST....be fucking thankful that Slayer has NEVER changed quite as drasticlly as say...Metallica! The two bands came out around the same time (1981 when both bands formed....1983 when both bands released their debut albums). And just compare the two......you will realize there is no comparison. I am not putting down Metallica, even though a lot of people do. I sometimes wonder if I am the only metal-head alive who can say "Yeah...I like Obituary, Death, Deicide, Dragonlord, Slayer, Iced Earth, Testament, Pantera, Sadus, Fear Factory, Slipknot, Korn, Kiss, Van Halen, Metallica, Mr. Bungle, Faith No More, Cannibal Corpse, Mudvayne, Forbidden, Vio-lence, Machine Head, Stonesour, the list goes on. I doubt there are many of you that share the same tastes. Let the bashing begin......As I have said before...GIVE ME YOUR BEST SHOT!!!! I find your feeble insults entertaining and it makes me feel good to create chaos!!

Is it me or does the guitars sound muddy and super weak. I know it's just a rough recording, but it has the same sound as GHUA. They need to go back to the classic SLAYER E flat tuning
With all this super sound technology and recording techniques why can't SLAYER put out an album that sounds better than 1983. Take some tips from TESTAMENT.

Ken, Got a 'science project' for you. You think Slayer can't play guitar properly, and you are so much better. I know a bassplayer and drummer who will help you out by forming a temporary cover band doing Slayer songs. You can play the guitar. Then we can check out whether you can play these songs yourself. I suggest the following setlist. I've purposely included some of the slower songs so it isn't too hard.
1. Ghosts of War 2. Dead Skin Mask 3. War Ensemble 4. Serenity in Murder 5. Circle of Beliefs 6. Hallowed Point 7. Epidemic 8. Angel of Death 9. Altar of Sacrifice 10. Spirit in Black
As Kerry and Jeff are such bad guitarists, this should be easy for you. It won't take you long to learn these songs. Then we can check you out playing them. I'm prepared to bet a couple of hundred bucks that you can't do it. But if you do pull it off, I'll shake your hand and give you the money, no problem. I think that if you do learn these songs, you might give some more meaningful insights into Slayer's music, so that alone will be good.

would I waste my time playing that garbage. I can play chromatic scales thank you very much, I dont enjoy how they sound because a lot of the time, especially in Slayers case, its done to give a song an all to overdone "evil" feel because when you do chromatic runs, you get a lot of tritones.

Why would you take up my challenge? To win $200 from me and to back up your claim that you are a better musician than Kerry King and Jeff Hanneman. You think they are garbage? OK, let's see you play their songs. I very much doubt that you could. But if you prove me wrong, as I said, I'll shake your hand and give you the $200.
If you understood Slayer's music, you would know that they do not always use chromatic scales. For example, can you tell me what scale they use on the solo from 'Skeletones of Society'? And what are the arpeggios Kerry uses at the start of his solo at the end of 'War Ensemble'. Please give me your answer, Ken.

Ever so sorry sweet tums, "really" Bt if that the only thing you could find wrong with that speech? LOL you must be a maiden fan. Ni disrespect to maiden but i find alot of their fans overrate them..best band ever? Fuck off. Maiden will never be as good as Sabbath and Sabbath more or less are dead. Now for the thrash good stuff, Thrash = the best good damn genre ever. So it'd be prettty hard for maiden to be better than Deth, Anthrax, Metallica, Slayer, Vio-lence, Forbidden, Exodus, etc. OK! These bands (except Vio-lence and as far as i know exodus) have sold out pretty much, but im talking about their good days.
In addition to this, Cult sounds fucking sick. The "Nu Metal" bit at the end, Fucking hell girls, slayer been doing riffages like that b4 nu metal existed. So shhhhhh. Plus, its a sick riff anyway, can't wait to hear how tom puts vocals to that.
Metal up your ass.
