Diabolus in Musica. Not really, Show No Mercy. First five are awesome. Also like Christ Illusion. Divine Intervention is boring and the rest suck. GHUA would be kinda fun if it wasn't a slayer album.
It's a toss up for me between Show No Mercy and Reign in Blood, followed closely by Hell Awaits. Only albums that i can't listen to are Diabolus and God Hates Us All. Not only do i not like those albums, i think they fucking plain out stink. I also like Christ Illusion, their best from the 2000's.
Hell Awaits = Reign in Blood > Haunting the Chapel > South of Heaven > Show No Mercy > who fucking cares. For what it's worth, Hell Awaits and Reign in Blood are two albums I would consider essentially flawless.
I'm surprised that Show No Mercy is being rated so well - I think it's just OK and would rate it after RiB, HA, SitA and SoA. I actually prefer the same songs on Live Undead that the Show No Mercy album - Araya's vocals are better and the slightly faster music suits it better.
Yea, i think i can say that Seasons is my favorite post RiB album from them ... although Silent Scream is just about as good as any track off that album.
edit: Overall i have them...
Show No Mercy = Reign in Blood > Haunting the Chapel = Hell Awaits > Seasons in the Abyss > South of Heaven > Divine Intervention > Christ Illusion > World Painted Blood
