You captured the South of Heaven/Seasons in the Abyss vibe in the opening. Then you busted out with the Reign in Blood/2000's Slayer vibe once it kicked in. And your vocals somehow do Tom Araya justice, which I feel very few people have actually done. The soloing iis epic, too.

    This is the first time I've ever seen or heard this guy. I was impressed by his singing and playing. That increased tenfold when I noticed his left hand! He plays left-handed, but if he was born right-handed, he would have had to train himself HARD to fret southpaw!! I subbed to him right away because of that and now I want to learn more about him! He's the quintessential personification and living embodiment of adapting and overcoming!!

I helped play a part (early/mid 1990's) in making Tom Araya's translucent green Hill bass....which he absolutely fricken loves. Keep up the good work! Stellar!
