Sounds like a shitty preproduction, I am dissapoint, Slayer.
It's a shame, great songs in it, but I hate the sound of it.
Who's with me?

Another great one from Mr. Deaf Magnetic Fidelman
and I agree with you, there's some killer tunes on there but that sound is just ... well, bad

Yeah I can't find another way to describe it than just plain bad, it baffles me how a band like them allows that to happen, it's like they didn't even listen to the final mix or what?

It sounds like a band playing through actual amps without gobs of help to make it loud and METAL. What's so wrong with a more organic sound?
I don´t know what you´re hearing, but Reign in Blood sounds organic, this one just sounds demo-ish. Weak guitars, super upfront annoying kick drum, everything sounds really empty and weak

And don't get me wrong, I definitely don't thing Fidelman is a bad engineer per se, I just think he isn't the right guy for this kind of music. I love his work with High On Fire, Audioslave, Johnny Cash, SOAD and so on.

This is the first Slayer album I enjoy song wise, since Divine Intervention! The sound is crap though!! I agree. Look at new Maiden stuff, it´s even more terrible. Weak songs & weak production in my opinion. Slayer rule hell!!!

He's only credited as doing editing on the first Audioslave album, and thank fuck tbh because that album is taaaasty and Fidelman would never have done it justice in a million years.
Only an assistant engineer on the SOAD one also.
I disagree with everything you say hahaha I love Maiden´s new albums, and I like God Hates us All

Wow, so it seems. I stand corrected!
Yeah? I love Snakes For The Divine, and I actually think the production fits pretty well

Very strange, I'm not a Slayer fan at all, but I like the production of World Painted Blood, I think it fits the band very good...
Bit more gain on the guitars wouldnt harm I guess but apart from that I think it's ok.

You talkin' to me?
I agree with Mago here. Not a big fan also but I dont see slayer with a modern production. It doesnt fit!lol because slayer, it´s slaaaaaaaaaaaaaaayerrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr. Tvue bands must have raw productions \m/

"raw" doesn't have to mean "shitty"
Imagine WPB with the sound of Testament's "The Gathering" and tell me you didn't just get a little hard

Nah not even a little...but it's a bad cock day for me today
What is so shitty about the sound...I seriously don't get it?
I think only the geetars could have more gain, but appart from that?
Reign in blood doesnt sound THAT much different to me also
