Ok very nice "Laeth", but why don't you actually grow a penis, find a forum where you can chat with fellow linguistic nerds and fuck the hell off from a metal forum.
Metal is about having fun, not needing to feel constrained by society, and feeling united with fellow fans - cunts like yourself maintain none of these three things, and are therefore not worth recognising.

I don't think you're entirely right there.
Rock and Roll is about having fun... I think Metal's a little deeper than that.

Intepret it how you want, for me heavy metal is about having a good time, enjoying the music and the lifestyle, and not actually going to ridiculous lengths to outdo fellow fans with meaningless genre-based trivia.

Wait hold on are you comparing ANYTHING by Slayer to RIP? They sound nothing alike, the soloing style, the riffage, the drums, the bass riffs, lyrics. The only similarity I'll even give you are clean vocals. Slayer is almost like a proto-death metal band and RIP is a super structured thrash metal band. They sound nothing alike and have almost nothing to do with each other.
This is a ridiculous conversaition

Have you actually listened to South of Heaven and Seasons in the Abyss lately? The style is not at all dissimilar to "Five Magics" (and the intro to that song reaches back even further, recalling "Raining Blood").

Seasons in the Abyss
Which songs, because the only thing I find that remotely resembles Five Magics is the title track Seasons in the Abyss, and that is only ever so slight because it's one of the only songs that is a little more mellow.
first riff in five magics, first two riffs in Raining Blood,

I see and hear NO resemblance. There not even in the same key or use the same fingering
And either way, your using one song to prove how similar these bands are?

1. The similarities with "Raining Blood" are primarily contained in the structure of the into (initial burst, followed by a slow melodic build to a mid-tempo headbang.
2. The title track of Seasons... is the song most reminiscent of the material from South of Heaven, which is the obvious reference point for "Five Magics".
3. You've missed the point entirely. The issue was not that Megadeth was fundamentally similar to Slayer in some way, but that Rust in Peace is a collage of ideas stolen from other bands, including Slayer. You accuse me of selectively responding to arguments, but you're indulging in a classic case of this here.
