Slayer
Soundtrack To The Apocalypse
The Hobo review
Slayer. Without a doubt the single greatest
metal band ever to scorch this infinitely unworthy earth. Slayer truly
are the Christopher Walken of thrash and still some 20 years after the
band first formed, they still exist and still brutally annihilate any
opposition to their crown. Other metal greats who once sought to challenge
these gods Anthrax, Metallica, Testament, Megadeth have either burnt
out, sold out or just simply faded away into mediocrity.
No band unites its fans under such a brotherhood
as Slayer. If another fan sees you walking down the street with a Reign
In Blood shirt, hell respect you. The bond is almost instant, and more
often than not, the true fan will buy you a beer or at least give one piercing
scream of SLAYER before leaving you alone.
The box set itself consists of 4 CDs,
1 DVD and some other bonus gear. The first disc acts as a best of compilation
from Reign In Blood to Seasons In The Abyss with a few tracks from Decade
Of Aggression thrown in. The first disc is, in effect what I like to call
The Lombardo Years. The second disc similarly is a best of compilation
of the Bostaph years from Divine Intervention to God Hates Us All
with a few other tracks off soundtracks thrown in.
The third disc holds a total shiatload
of rarities from demos, remixes, rehersals and live recordings. The DVD
is basically the same kind of shin dig as Cliff Em All a little documentary
of the band with live clips from when the boys still wore makeup. It hasnt
got the best sound quality, being not compatible with 5.1 DSS so if you
want an awesome live show, grab War At The Warfield.
The final CD is a collection of live tracks
Live With Dave Lombardo. I do believe the CD was complied back in 1991
just before Dave left. Some of the random extras include; a cool banner,
a backstage laminate, and awesome blood pack cd cover.
This box set is simply the best thing to
come out in music. To those borderline fans that think the cash is a bit
more than one could fork out fuck it, buy it. Any fan of any loyalty
that has ever liked or tapped along to one Slayer song absent-mindedly,
needs to get this box set. Everyone needs to buy this fucking box set.
Its perfect its better than perfect. It offers a sense of empowerment
no drug can offer. It offers enormous amounts of street-cred with the
brotherhood. It offers violence, melody, musicianship and ecstasy. Hell,
if anyone pays attention to my words and buys it Ill shout them a beer
at the Winsor sometime. Dead set.
I dont care if you have to sell your
liver to get the Soundtrack To The Apocalypse
Just get it.
