get all defensive why don't you
Reign in blood is sloppy, it's extremely immature, and frankly there is all of about six good riffs throughought the whole cd. Raining Blood being the only decent peice of music on there.
Metallica on the otherhand, released two albums that were quite obviously of a higher standard of writing, and playing that slayer ever were. ...And justice for all is surprisingly complex, especially the songs Blackened, ...And justice for all, and Dyers eve. Take note of the riff that ends with one bar of 5/8 in Dyers eve, Slayer couldn't write a complicated riff if they tried. It's ALL in 4/4 or 3/4, and while there's nothing wrong with that at all, they have released the same album at least three times, with only the production values setting them apart.
Seasons in the abyss on the other hand, yes, i credit that, and Divine Intervention as being classy peices of music. Good riffs, some of the lyrics actually have a point to them, and frankly the band were alot tighter later on. Alot of the tremelo picking riffs on reign in blood are extremely iffy, and i would go as far as saying that the amount of notes in alot of them were a pure guess, hence my saying that slayer were sloppy around that time. The drums are quite decent, i'll give that, although lombardo relies a bit too much on speed instead of accuracy at times.
So how exactly is reign in blood a better album in any way than master of puppets, or ...and justice for all?
