With the exception of the vocals, the live version sounds infinitely more powerful. To me, the entire album sounds extremely muffled(I think it's the way the guitars are recorded). I don't know why. I don't get that from Seasons in the Abyss, or South Of Heaven at all. However, for some reason Reign In Blood has always just sounded weak. Maybe I need to hear the vinyl version or something...

Terence Hill, as recently confirmed during an interview to an Italian TV talk-show, was offered the role but rejected it because he considered it "too violent". Dustin Hoffman and John Travolta declined the role for the same reason. When Al Pacino was considered for the role of John Rambo, he turned it down when his request that Rambo be more of a madman was rejected.
Al Pacino = God
