@@mariovrandecic5690 man i got the delight to see Fantomas live on the Suspended Animation tour, holy shit Lombardo was a mad man keeping those absolute non time signatures, one of the wildest shows ive seen for sure. ive seen Slayer many times and Lombardo will always be one of my faveorite drummers, but playing those Fantomas songs live is just MADnEsS
@@mariovrandecic5690 look him up playing battery with Metallica in 2004. Amazing to hear James have to adjust his playing to a real drummer. Would love to see a supergroup with James up front playing riffs as always, and Dave playing with james’ riffing.
South of Heaven would be a good next Slayer song to do. Nice video, it's good to see a proper young metalhead learning about our shared history. Metal is a family and everyone is welcome.
Dave Fuckin' Lombardo IS Slayer. His drumming is what hooked me the very first time hearing them. He can groove, he can play fast, he can play slow. He can do it all.
Such a great album!! Seasons in the abyss, Rust In Peace, And Justice For All are really great albums that came out pretty close together time wise all these albums were so great.
I always thought of the drums in this song as an aerobic exercise. He warms up at the beginning and then slows down at the end. Incredible drums. Bravo Mr. Lombardo
RIP Hanneman! A true riff master that went to soon! All the riffs we didn't get! These old slayer songs are just magic. The way it move you. I thing they did the filming at the pyramids even when they were not alowed to if I'm not misstaking.
This is one of my all-time favorite songs by them. The drum sound on this song is incredible! But what really sold me on this song is the vocal harmonies. A rare treat for a Slayer song.
There's a special version of this song that features a bit of flute during the intro. It sounds surprisingly good, and I've always wondered why Slayer didn't just make it a standard part of the song.
Dave Lombardo is beast mode on drums period, my all time favorite metal drummer. when you get a chance you should check out a band Dave formed called Grip Inc. "Ostracized" or "Heretic War Chant" great songs off first album, "Rusty Nail" and "Pathetic Liar" off the Nemesis album are really good too.
It is very subtle, but at precisely 2:55 when the drum beat kicks back in, Dave hits the cymbal and lets it ring - he deliberately doesnt hit the ride - then hits the snare CRACK! and then into the ride. Letting the cymbal ring longer, and not play the ride generates atmosphere and makes the guitars sound like they are coming out of rhe darkness.
Dave Lombardo is the greatest thrash metal drummer of all time and here we can clearly see that. He changed parameters, influenced a new generation of drummers and Slayer showed the world for the first time what it was like to play Metal in a much more aggressive way!
The first time I saw this music video was on Bevis and Butthead. The part about the desert cops kicking slayer out of the desert for playing too loud made me lmfao 🤣
Eu também tive essa bênção a primeira foi em 1985 semana Metal >Rock In Rio>1998 Philip Monster Rock e a última em 02/10/2019 SP🇧🇷 SLAYER pra mim é terapia. 🤘❤
Between Lombardo's drum fills, the dueling solos between Kerry King and Jeff Hanneman, and lyrics like "a decorative splatter brightens the room", this is my favorite Slayer song. Another one of my favorites is "Killing Fields". Dave Lombardo had left the band by this point but Paul Bostaph rose to the occasion as new drummer. Killing Fields was the opener to his first album with the band, "Divine Intervention".
SLAYER.........WHAT ELSE IS THERE TO SAYYYY... JUST HOWLLLLL....F*******N YEEEEEEAH...!!!!!! Been there,done that,doing ev'ry thing tomorrow again if I could...😊
Aileen, allow me to give you a huge compliment that I really like that you rewind the video after you have paused to comment or react. Not many people do, just a little thing that makes a huge impression on me. Now to the video, Slayer has the best collection of musicians from top to bottom. So much going on all the time. Just total savages. Thank you for sharing your videos with us.
Fucking Slayer man!!!! It's funny because when they went to Egypt to make this video they requested to film part of the video INSIDE the pyramid, they were told absolutely not. So they bribed the guards with whiskey and pornography and filmed part of the video inside the pyramid anyway, hahaha! Dave Lombardo is one of the best drummers ever. I was heartbroken when Jeff Hanneman passed away.
You have this down - Slayer truly tries to break through societal norms, just for expansion, and I also love the drumming! That seems so overlooked, and it’s grand that you picked up on it straightaway. Well done review!!!
I see the horns. Slayer is bringing out your final form. Everything is going as planned.😉 😈 This is my personal favorite Slayer song. I only saw them perform this live once from all the Slayer shows I attended. They hadn't played it live in decades by that point so I had no reason to believe I'd hear it live. Then that opening, evil beginning segment began and I started freaking out to the point where my friends who were with me thought there was something wrong with me. I couldn't even talk or make sounds and was just shaking. Then that F*cking riff kicked in and I screamed so loud "YEEEESSSSSS!" that I actually blew my voice out for the rest of the week. One of only three times that's ever happened to me since I started going to shows regularly starting in 1997. The other two being Metallica playing Master of Puppets and yelling "MASTER!" and my voice stopped working then and there and Iron Maiden playing Powerslave and having a similar reaction to this song the instant I heard that howling and evil laughter.
Awesome. My favorite was always Dead Skin Mask. I saw them live on the Unholy Alliance tour with Lamb of God and Children of Bodom. They preformed this song and it was so killer. Would've loved to see them again.
I am subbing because you seem like you enjoy some SLAYER! I was exposed to this in the early 80's and have seen them live a few times. BY FAR the loudest band ever.
Love Dave’s drumming throughout this song and particularly those monstrous fills, but how about Kerry and Jeff’s solos? Surprisingly melodic for Slayer, ha. Great song and great reaction!
I saw Slayer the first time and last time they played at MSG. 92 & 2019. I’ve been a life long fan. I would usually give you a song from their 80s catalog but I’m going g to give you 2 of their later songs from the God Hates Us All cd released on Sept 11 2001. “Disciple” and “Threshold” are two joints worth checking out ✌🏼
does anyone else love how Jeff comes in over the top of Kerry's solo on this one? or is it just me, this is like the perfect Slayer sounding solo that best represents them, like you hear the soloing on this song and you know yep, that's Slayer, and yes Dave does slap them drums like.. insert DV joke here, his last album before he left and formed Grip Inc, you should react to Bloodline or God Hates Us All
Dave Lombardo is the greatest drummer EVER! His double kicks are INSANE. It was so sad when him and Slayer parted ways. He went on to form a band called Grip Inc. Seasons In The Abyss is on the list of GREATEST metal albums of all time! Love seeing you going down the Slayer rabbit hole 🤘🏻🔥🎶🎸
This entire album is a Masterpiece!!!! Kerry King founding member, was quoted saying" seasons in the abyss is their best work". I happened to agree. I love Slayer I have everything they've ever done. FUCKING SLAYER!!!!!!
This video was the number 1 video back in the day on Headbangers Ball for some stupid length of time. People just could not get enough of it and this song. For me, its not my favorite song, it feels a lil generic, at least by Slayer standards. The best part of this song is that the riffs are really big and open which leaves Lombardo lots of room to drop in some sick fills. My other favorite lil thing about this song is there is a version ( hard to find but it does exist) where over the clean picking guitar parts at the beginning and end of the song, a flute is played. It basically mirrors the bass line but yeah...a fucking flute!! In a Slayer song!! Keep up the good work you're killing these reactions!
On, God, no cap, and all that other bs, this is my very first Slayer music video I have ever seen, and it happens to be a reaction video. I just recently have gotten into music videos since like the 90s. There's so many metal music videos and live concerts that I've found through people's reaction videos that I've never seen. Glad she popped up into my suggestions. New Subscriber!!
this band has an unusual gift to turn suppressed and unwanted things into art. that's why i love slayer (besides of the drumming and guitars work obviously). thank you, aileen! great video.
Dave Lombardo is my drum idol. He learned from jazz fusion which is why his fills ,rolls, and polyrythems are tight and flawless he's a true master of the kit.
I am absolutely enjoying watching you discover Slayer and Pantera and Megadeth This is the exact music I grew up on when it came out and to see your younger generation start to dig into it is fascinating
Slayer is absolutely amazing, someone commented on a band called iced earth Dante's inferno, iced earth are super creative and heavy and one of my favorite songs is The Hunter!
There was nothing as good as a Slayer show in their prime. When you turned during a song like Angel of Death and looked back from the front of the stage (where I was every time) at thousands (or hundreds at a bar show, the BEST kind of Slayer show) of people all into Slayer and knowing that moment would never come again...the best, unforgettable, incomparable.
Nice to see the new people discovering and treating their ears to legendary tunes. Even if you don't dig Slayer's style/lyrics, they have some badass beats.
These guys are just so musically gifted It's ridiculous. Virtually every song they have is so masterfully intricate. Always enjoy your reactions Aileen. Thanks for sharing 👍
as you said, the song 'elevates' you. that hits the nail on the head for me. while the song is a little slower paced than what the band was known for at the time, it does touch on a fear, an anxiety, that amplifies the song to another level. that has always resonated with me. also it sounds just badass
I once spent a season in the abyss. That season was a summer back towards the tail end of high school as part of this volunteering/community-service outreach program, and the abyss turns out to look and feel a lot like a nursing home where the old people still like to party before the end. I thought it just got a bad rap, but it turns out it can simply take a while to see what everyone is always talking about abyss-wise. For me the turning point was when all the new people like me started growing horns, except where most people grew the usual two, for some reason I only got one growing straight out of my forehead -- one guy even started growing these two, small, extra horns out of the tops of each of his regular two horns, and he just seemed to think he was the bees knees always preening around everywhere -- then all the two-horners started calling me names, never inviting me to the parties, rituals, orgies, etc. unless is was for some kind of sick comedy relief at my expense. I've only felt so embarrassed like five or six other times, so that one was up there definitely in the realm of bad, like if you'd been making out with the concept of bad itself all night and then it left without giving you its phone number. I'd eventually cut my one, stupid looking horn off and call it quits. It was all getting to be such a drag, I knew I didn't belong. I remember one day somebody's soulless little grandkid was visiting with family, had a baseball, covered it in something and lit it in on fire, shouted, "Fireball!" and threw it straight into my groin as I was walking out to the parking lot, doubling me over to the ground, and he called me a "dork," actually got high-fives from everyone as I was rolling on the pavement. I guess the place was pretty evil, if mostly for the sake of having all the same jerks as everywhere else, except even the place itself was kind of a jerk -- so pretty much exactly like Earth except somehow more aware of what its doing, and when everyone is laughing at you it's still the same except slightly more loud in your head, hard to explain, plus everything and everyone stank in that way you can almost barely stand beyond the point of being polite and a not saying anything about it. A mixed bag of memories that grew more unfair, grim, and hurtful over time, I'd say don't get any hopes up about those abysses (unless you're like Mr. Two Little Horns On Top Of His Two Big Horns that cool son of a bitch), and I can totally vouch for what Slayer seems to have been so annoyed about on this album.
The live version from their last show on their retirement tour at the Forum in Inglewood would be a great version to checkout. They open the show with it, and their intro is simplistic but gets you hyped!!
@@sammysam1383 there is nothing like seeing them live and that opening / intro is to die for! it dies get you so hyped! the wife and I got to see them 5 times during their farewell tour, and I am very grateful.
@@killdozer3464 Nice!!! I was able to get to 3 shows of the last tour, and I am grateful as well! Was also awesome that on their last leg of their last tour that they added Gemini to the set list, a song they rarely played live, but one of my favorites!!
Honestly, "Disciple" is my favorite slayer song. It's off the album, "God Hates us All". He came up with the name of the album when he was stuck in traffic. Love the videos!! You are freaking gorgeous!
Love the evil little grin when it kicked in❤. This song makes my skin crawl every time I hear it! It’s great to see a beautiful young lady enjoying slayer
Yeah, Lombardo was the best drummer of the thrash era and is still probably the best drummer to this day. He's still playing which is rare for thrash drummers at his age. Yeah, he beats those drums like they owe him money!
Pete Webber (Havok) and Carlos Cruz (Warbringer, Hexen) are two outstanding drummers that carry that same torch. Definitely check them out if you've got a few free minutes.
I have to go to the well on this one, I recommend south of heaven and angel of death, they’re more mainstream ( well more mainstream for Slayer) but still good tracks and are the first two tracks I ever heard by Slayer
Always loved this song! Made me buy the album it did! Forced Me To!! You know another band that doesn't get a lot of play in Reaction Channels but should is Testament. Try their Electric Crown!
Check out their tryptich of videos with unite screenplay: Repentless, You Against You, Pride And Prejudice (if you'll do this - you'll be the FIRST youtuber who reacted for all three of them), this from last. And if you want something more 2000-ish - you may check Bloodline or better their Grammy winner song Eyes Of The Insane.
If you want more music videos from Slayer then look up You Against You, Repentless and, Pride and Prejudice in that order. Also have to check out the live version of War Ensemble
WOW! I told you. Lol. And you did the video which was so important. Great reaction once again. Now you can go back and listen to those drom fills again. Lol Thanks for reacting to it. I would suggest War Ensemble next. Do the video for sure.
This album is a part of me. It's nailed to my inner core and still 2 this day it gives me the same feeling as back then. All hail Slayer, all hail Dave Lombardo.
Love this album! I first heard it when I was in HS. This song in particular has a great melody. Drums are awesome, and Kerry King is amazing on the guitar.
I was actually stationed in Egypt when they filmed this. I had been at the pyramids just a few days before but had no idea about them coming. If only I had known...
you have to check out the Hell awaits album Crypt of eternity and at Dawn they Sleep (about the true Evil Vampire not the Hollywood Crap on the movies) much love you are awesome Aileen
Dave Lombardo's drum fills are such a delight
yeah this was the last album he played in,left the Band till 2006 he came back
He came back in 2002
Paul Bostaph was an amazing drummer too!
His drumming on this song is really one big drum solo
Met Dave many times and he is my friend on Facebook too, always an awesome dude, always
that whole album is a masterpiece 🤘
South of heaven still a better album by far imo
@@Floyd690 the best one is obviously Reign in Blood
@@robyfiorili Rofl
@@Floyd690 The drum fills on south of heaven, unreal, Tom's vocals are class , it's defo my favorite
Yep, still probably my favorite album by Slayer, …….but then I listen to another one.
Saw Dave Lombardo playing drums with Testament at Bloodstock this past weekend. He remains the Neil Peart of thrash.
Well put.
"Neil peart of thrash"
I agree hahahaa
You lucky sob.🤘 I love Testament 😭
Well said!!
Better that than "The Eagles of Death Metal"!
Lombardo’s drum fill at 5:20 to this day is still one of the absolute filthiest fills I’ve ever heard.
then he jumps right back to murdering that high hat.
Dave Lombardo is probably the best metal drummer of all time. He's an amazing drummer that plays to the song, and never over or under does it.
His work with Fantomas proves also he is one among the many
@@mariovrandecic5690 man i got the delight to see Fantomas live on the Suspended Animation tour, holy shit Lombardo was a mad man keeping those absolute non time signatures, one of the wildest shows ive seen for sure. ive seen Slayer many times and Lombardo will always be one of my faveorite drummers, but playing those Fantomas songs live is just MADnEsS

Sepultura Arise
…& the album Lights Camera Revolution, from Suicidal Tendencies…🤟🏼
You can always tell what song Dave Lombardo is on . His drumming is iconic and essentially Slayer
I always thought of the drums in this song as an aerobic exercise. He warms up at the beginning and then slows down at the end. Incredible drums. Bravo Mr. Lombardo
If you haven't you should really hear the song by Slayer called Disciple its so angry and intense!!! :D
RIP Hanneman! A true riff master that went to soon! All the riffs we didn't get! These old slayer songs are just magic. The way it move you. I thing they did the filming at the pyramids even when they were not alowed to if I'm not misstaking.
Love Lombardo‘a drums on this album! I personally loved his drums on the Testament album, The Gathering. He’s back on tour with them right now!
Awesome album, RIP Jeff! Great reaction 🤘🤘

Behind the crooked cross is a hidden gem from Slayer
Absofuckinlutley
Absolutalely agree. The most difficult song to play on drums from the South Of Heaven album (followed nearly by Ghosts Of War)

Back when MTV used to be cool and play good music
ua-cam.com/video/hhTmhykBiuo/v-deo.html🤘
Totally forgot about that, funny as hell.
Yeah, those drums definitely racked up one hell of a debt with Dave, the way he was beating them. His fills are for sure the highlight of this one.
I've been lucky enough to see Slayer live three times in my life. All three times in Milan, Italy, between 1988 and 1992, when they were at the top

My first slayer album!! Born of fire is my favorite off that album. Check out Expdus “Funeral Hymm”

I guess the place was pretty evil, if mostly for the sake of having all the same jerks as everywhere else, except even the place itself was kind of a jerk -- so pretty much exactly like Earth except somehow more aware of what its doing, and when everyone is laughing at you it's still the same except slightly more loud in your head, hard to explain, plus everything and everyone stank in that way you can almost barely stand beyond the point of being polite and a not saying anything about it. A mixed bag of memories that grew more unfair, grim, and hurtful over time, I'd say don't get any hopes up about those abysses (unless you're like Mr. Two Little Horns On Top Of His Two Big Horns that cool son of a bitch), and I can totally vouch for what Slayer seems to have been so annoyed about on this album.
your headphones are sic!!! subscribed immediately - you got me at 3:44 with that raised eyebrow and smile.
Love the love and peace that flows from you, your physical beauty is a plus.😊
This is a different slayer song, not as heavy, but the melody is incredible. Thank you for doing this one!
“REPENTLESS” is absolute fire. Slayer just goes off the deep end with this classic
The live version from their last show on their retirement tour at the Forum in Inglewood would be a great version to checkout. They open the show with it, and their intro is simplistic but gets you hyped!!
@@sammysam1383 there is nothing like seeing them live and that opening / intro is to die for! it dies get you so hyped! the wife and I got to see them 5 times during their farewell tour, and I am very grateful.
@@killdozer3464 Nice!!! I was able to get to 3 shows of the last tour, and I am grateful as well! Was also awesome that on their last leg of their last tour that they added Gemini to the set list, a song they rarely played live, but one of my favorites!!
Honestly, "Disciple" is my favorite slayer song. It's off the album, "God Hates us All". He came up with the name of the album when he was stuck in traffic. Love the videos!! You are freaking gorgeous!
great song! Fun fact: The album "God Hates us All" was released on September 11, 2001. \m/
213 for me
Love the evil little grin when it kicked in❤. This song makes my skin crawl every time I hear it! It’s great to see a beautiful young lady enjoying slayer
You are one of millions of fans who love Dave Lombardo's drums. A true trail blazer of thrash drums!!!! We are not worthy!!!!
Skeletons of Society is another gem off that album. Just a 3-minute groove.
Yeah, Lombardo was the best drummer of the thrash era and is still probably the best drummer to this day. He's still playing which is rare for thrash drummers at his age. Yeah, he beats those drums like they owe him money!
Pete Webber (Havok) and Carlos Cruz (Warbringer, Hexen) are two outstanding drummers that carry that same torch. Definitely check them out if you've got a few free minutes.
@@wne2361 thanx for the recommendations. Sure will.
Slayer- War Ensemble, must listen. Love your reaction videos. ✌🤘
I have to go to the well on this one, I recommend south of heaven and angel of death, they’re more mainstream ( well more mainstream for Slayer) but still good tracks and are the first two tracks I ever heard by Slayer
These songs still age so well! Hi Aileen! I enjoy your reactions ..subbing keep up the great work!
the sound and visuals still give me chills. Excellent selection!
I've always described this song as a drum solo with guitar and vocals in the back XD
I always enjoy seeing someone who appreciates percussion discovering Dave Lombardo.
Always loved this song! Made me buy the album it did! Forced Me To!!
You know another band that doesn't get a lot of play in Reaction Channels but should is Testament. Try their Electric Crown!
Those sliding legato at the end of the guitar solo are so fu*king hard to play precisely.
My favourite Slayer album. Not the biggest fan of them, but when they are good, they are really good.
Your enthusiasm shows that METAL is your thing... Enjoy the journey.
I start listen to slayer in 1984 and must say there are perfect match, but will say i fall for the drummer and singer/bassplayer
Check out their tryptich of videos with unite screenplay: Repentless, You Against You, Pride And Prejudice (if you'll do this - you'll be the FIRST youtuber who reacted for all three of them), this from last. And if you want something more 2000-ish - you may check Bloodline or better their Grammy winner song Eyes Of The Insane.
My absolute favorite slayer song and album, slayer rules!!!!!
If you want more music videos from Slayer then look up You Against You, Repentless and, Pride and Prejudice in that order.
Also have to check out the live version of War Ensemble
WOW! I told you. Lol. And you did the video which was so important. Great reaction once again. Now you can go back and listen to those drom fills again. Lol Thanks for reacting to it. I would suggest War Ensemble next. Do the video for sure.
Ahhhh memories of the whole house asleep with me in front of the TV at 1AM watching headbangers ball.
One of my favorite Slayer songs!!!
i can remember smashing this on vinyl every day after school.... my sisters are slayer fans as a result lol
This album is a part of me. It's nailed to my inner core and still 2 this day it gives me the same feeling as back then. All hail Slayer, all hail Dave Lombardo.
Love this album! I first heard it when I was in HS. This song in particular has a great melody. Drums are awesome, and Kerry King is amazing on the guitar.
I was actually stationed in Egypt when they filmed this. I had been at the pyramids just a few days before but had no idea about them coming. If only I had known...
This song lends itself to fills, and Dave delivered perfectly.
you have to check out the Hell awaits album Crypt of eternity and
at Dawn they Sleep (about the true Evil Vampire not the Hollywood Crap on the movies) much love you are awesome Aileen
