MB Classics: Slayer - Reign in Blood

It's fast. Is that its defining feature?

Jesus Saves breaks up the monotony for a second before it returns to an angry sprint, but even so, there's little anywhere for me apart from aggression, which doesn't appeal much to me in any of its forms.

I don't hate it, although I don't see the big deal.

Awesome but overrated.

7/10

In the grand scheme of all things Slayer, RIB is a solid 8/10. This is coming from someone who actually likes SOH more than RIB too. Don't hate.

South of Heaven is great. That much is certain.

Hell Awaits is better than Reign In Blood. Hell, I can think of 10+ thrash records off the top of my head from the mid 80's that are better than Reign In Blood, which would include the seminal releases from groups like Morbid Saint and Mekong Delta.

Nevertheless, still a classic. 7 out of 10.

Since you know some semi-obscure thrash, I'm curious to know if you have an opinion on Xentrix - For Whose Advantage? It's one of my personal top 10 Thrash albums, but I'm not sure anyone else on here really cares about it.
