I suspect there is
not much need to review this album since almost every metal fan in the world
already knows of it but I still think it deserves to be mentioned. Slayer is
without a doubt one of the most successful metal bands ever and "Reign In
Blood" is often referred to as the number one thrash metal album of all time.
You can not really do much else than agree with that because thrash metal can
hardly be done any better than this, at least not many, if any, bands have
managed to do so. The album is unfortunately not very long since it contains
only hyperspeed thrash metal done with unbelievable technical precision. These
guys are some of the most skilled musicians this world has to offer and the
energy and aggression showed on this album offers nothing but aural pleasures
of the highest possible quality. Slayer is to thrash metal what the invention
of fire was to mankind - the flame and technical skills needed to bring this
kind of music forward. There is an uncountable number of bands out there today
who have been inspired by Tom Araya and the rest of the guys. The conclusion
is simple yet descriptive: this is the ultimate manifestation of perfection
itself.
