Slayer is a band that never
stops surprising me. Album after album they keep up the intensity and power
and the new album has a lot of similarities to the classic "Reign In Blood"
even though they have mixed the old sound with newer influences. Slayer is one
of the few big names from the 80's who still stay true to metal and there is
no doubt that "God Hates Us All" is all about metal which can be discussed
with for example the latest releases from Metallica. Tom Araya continues to
scream his lungs off and this is the only thing you can grow tired of with
Slayer. I recently saw them live in Stockholm and after having heard Amorphis,
In Flames and Cradle Of Filth right before you can easily get slightly annoyed
with his voice. Even though this is a great album I can't help to notice that
Slayer have become heavier and slightly slower over the years but the vocals
from Araya still keep the intensity on a very high level. Tracks like "God
Send Death" and "Exile" will however make sure that old fans of the band
will not be disappointed with their new release. The mighty kings of thrash
metal are back and they are certainly not ready to give up just yet. This is
probably one of their darkest and heaviest releases as of now but I miss some
of the speed and amazing technical show-offs from their earlier albums. Slayer
is still Slayer though.
