      frogtastic1000 Both Hanneman and King played solos that were wrong if analysed in a musical theory sense - in the key of E minor they might be doing runs in G pentatonic or some shit. But that's what makes them different and fun to figure out because you can't predict where exactly those barrage of notes are.

      I like the way he expreses himself, maybe it's because his so confident. But even though he was chill in here he does have a gigantic ego and can be a douche from time to time.

    Man back in 1988 when the thrash scene was booming I hung out with this guy for a minute in Phoenix Arizona, and the play I met him was on Central Avenue a drummer Craig Hall from the band Sacred Reich a phoenix band I used to see every time they played brought him the Phoenix and introduce me to him and he was a great guy and very nice. he played a show with them and Jason Newsted before the Black Album came out and afterwards we hung out and he wanted to go to Burger King but it was close so Mayhem and some other guy I didn't know what the Circle K and he just settled for a soft drink as we were walking the guy who was with us said how his rhythms were excellent but his lead work great I remember Kerry laughing and said well it's in the Dorian I know that much. nevertheless Slayer is no joke when it comes to rhythms

      I think it's a wrong judgement. You need to know the person in order to actually judge whether he lies or not. Maybe he just likes touching his sunglasses, or his beard, or his head - we're all humans after all...
