My favorite Slayer tape. RIP Jeff Hanneman.

Same here. I already knew Show No Mercy and Haunting the Chapel, but this one brought it home for me....so evil and raw. Got it the day it came out at the Record Vault in SF. Came home, put it on the turntable and... that fucking intro....!
Sure I love the Rubin stuff after, but for me, personally...This is the Slayer.

I've finally been comin' around to it lately. I always thought the crappy production combined with a heavy dose of cliches (that they later transcended) and a general lack of focused songwriting held the record back. I still feel they took a big leap with Reign In Blood, but I've been diggin' the rawness and thrashin' these days.
