Kerry King

[astfgyl]

The only song I don't like on Diabolous is Scrum. That one is absolutely terrible. Also not having a bar of the nu metal argument. There's about two riffs on the whole thing that could be described as anything of the sort. Bitter Peace is one of Slayer's best tunes as well.

[Ducky]

I got into Slayer around the time Diabolous came out (with RiB and SitA), and Bitter Peace was on a magazine (probs Metal Hammer) compilation that I had, and I found it to be just as enjoyable to my uneducated ears as anything on those two albums.

Have it on right now, actually

I hope Kerry gets a signature model of one of these

First live footage. Handful of slayer tunes in the set too Raining Blood, Bkack Magic, Disciple, Chemical Warfare and a few more.

[Don Gately]

I m so tired.

Had it on there this morning. It's actually a decent album. Idle Hands was probably one of the worst choices for a lead track. There's better variety on some of the others, Phil's leads are a great contrast, the bass is prominent in the mix, Bostaph puts in a stellar performance and Mark sounds amazing, again there's a bit of variety in some of the other tracks vocally.

I'm not sure if the arse falls out of the record after track 7 or so as I only gave it one listen. There were no immediate highlights across the latter stages at the first time of asking but I'm interested enough to give it a few more goes over the weekend. If your curiosity is piqued try Where I Reign or Trophies of the tyrant

It's a fun record. 

Definitely ticking the "ignorant mosh part" quotas for me.

[Pagan Saviour]

Yeah that's it. Not going to break any barriers musically but ticks all the right boxes. He's come up with a decent set of tunes, much much better than Repentless which wouldn't be hard mind. I think I could only stomach Repentless once or twice whereas this is going straight back on tonight

I've always found Relentless to be the one I've gone back to a lot. I've kinda found it to be a stronger record that C.I/WPD.

Shitshow

[Pagan Saviour]

Ah cmon Don, it's good craic.

[Carnage]

I put it on there earlier, got about halfway through before bailing. Shite. Nothing new, all recycled Slayer riffs. Osegueda's performance is the best thing about it but I'd rather just listen to Death Angel.

[The Wretch]

Agreed. Duller than a Coldplay musical.

[Circlepit]

I don't know how anyone can condone that vocal performance. It's the same one note screech that Tom Araya did on Repentlessnessless.
The songs could be ok without that monotone shout.
