Product Description
Out of print in the US, REIGN IN BLOOD is often credited as the best thrash album ever. Originally released in 1986, includes extra tracks.
Amazon.com
No one has bettered the ferocity, pace, and brutal power of this 28-minute 10-song set. Guitarists Jeff Hanneman and Kerry King fire out of the gate with the infamous "Angel of Death" and don't take a respite until the fifth cut, "Jesus Saves." And that breather lasts all of 30 seconds. Winding like a mutant Paganini piece, "Postmortem"'s hook is so inescapable that even metal neophytes will find it irresistible. Superbly sequenced and wonderfully executed, this favorite of producer Rick Rubin stands as the most extreme album in thrash-metal history. --Steffan Chirazi

For anyone who has listened to this and did not conclude the same, you simply did not listen. The utilization of "atonal chromaticism" ([...]) is so amazing. The sound of this album transforms it into something four dimensional. It is a busy album, preventing a complete appreciation the first six hundred sixty five times it is listened to. I can see why Slayer fans are rabid fanatics (see [...]).
The opening, Angel of Death, starts with an aggressive guitar attack and before your brain can finish processing what just happened, Slayer launch into Piece by Piece with Dave Lombardo's double bass drum from Angel of Death still bouncing around your cortex. Piece by Piece is near its end when you realize this is really the second song already and your brain, which has been put into a coma by so much crap music from the radio station, begins to get stimulated for the first time. What you've just felt is a jump in your IQ. The launch into Necrophobic blows your brain away, forcing it to contract and retreat like your eyes thrust into bright sunshine when it's been midnight for so long. Altar of Sacrifice starts and you've barely enough time to figure out it's a new song and you start sensing evil resident within the music, awakening your own demon. Altar of Sacrifice concludes and you read that Jesus Saves is next so you trick yourself into thinking the music is going to slow down and at first Hanneman gives the illusion that Slayer is mortal after all until King, Hanneman, and Araya start up the pummeling machine and you try your best to keep up with the guitar solos and Araya's commanding lecture about religion. Your granted another breather when Criminally Insane starts and Lombardo injects some interesting percussion into your frontal lobe as the time warp starts again and you've become the victim again of Araya's terrifying anecdotal evidence of the certain demise of mankind as the guitar duo's assault resonates across your synapses like a tectonic shuffle at lunatic speed.
Reborn brings to reality your stunned mind's conviction that the horror and metal are relentless and black and only getting darker, and you really are beginning to feel ripped and torn. Epidemic then suddenly crashes in on your brain courtesy of Dave Lombardo and Araya's dark intonations are a preamble to the death of mankind. But this scene seems all to real and possible. The guitar solos are short be complementary to the rhythm.
When Postmortem starts you feel the impending doom and know right away that an epic song has just started. The culmination of insanity has been captured in this song and queries you with raw honesty querying whether you want to die. The question might scare you given the context as you get delivered to you a blast of sheer lunacy in musicianship and lyrics. Raining blood follows the sinister segue where you are sure you heard recordings of souls in hell wailing their anguish. The devil begins speaking to you through King and Hanneman in Raining in Blood as he unveils to you a picture of hell and what awaits you. The conclusion of this song is a shock back to reality and you can't believe you just spent four hours in hell. Then you look at the clock and wonder how so much content could be compressed into less than thirty minutes. So you listen again, falling victim to Satan again.
So, straight into it. I very much agree that it just is not right to call yourself a metalhead and not have this album in your collection. Like another reviewer said, it is really hard to imagine what the metal scene would be like, had this album never been released. Certainly, we would not have awesome bands like Death, Morbid Angel, Cannibal Corpse, etc. That, however, is a different story altogether. To get more into it, even though most of the songs are quite short, relative to the standards of song-lengths for quality metal, Slayer demonstrate the epitome of their musicianship abilities at every level with this album on every single song. Tom Araya spits out the words to every song with sheer abrasiveness and edge, all while shredding the living daylights out of his bass. Kerry King and Jeff Hanneman (R.I.P.) keep the tight riffs and mean solos going every step of the way. Dave Lombardo, meanwhile, just beats those drums within an inch of their lives, living up to his well-deserved title as the "godfather of double-bass drum." Seriously, if I didn't know any better, I would think that a thunderstorm as approaching upon hearing him do a solo! \M/\M/
All in all, this album is a true thrash metal masterpiece, and I think it makes no sense at all to consider yourself a metalhead and not have this album in your collection. Not only that, but, like I said before, this album marks a relevant moment in the history of heavy metal music itself. It stands a revolutionary effort that, for its time, gave a whole new meaning to what it meant to be heavy and extreme, and not to mention a new level of controversy. When you get right down to it, this album is simply beyond any of my highest compliments of any extreme metal album, and I encourage any metalhead who does not own it to pick it up without delay! Just buy it already!
Also, may Jeff Hanneman (Jan 31, 1964 - May 2, 2013) be forever honored in his legacy by the eternal spirit of the metal community. He was a truly great musician, and an overall awesome person. Keep on rockin' for eternity, Jeff! You deserve it, and we will always remember you! \m/\m/
LONG LIVE THE ALMIGHTY SLAYER!!! LONG LIVE THRASH METAL FOREVER!!! \M/\M/
