In my english class, my teacher put on pandora radio and asked each student what to put on. When it was my turn, i said slayer. She put it on and this song came on. Everyone wanted it off and a few girls were scared of this music and everybody told me i need Jesus. I do go to church and a catholic but they said i need help. I think they need help.
+CARSON FRYOU Hey carson. I am a 45 year old catholic who was a kid like yourself when this album came out and had a similar thing happen to me in school. I still am a huge metal fan to this day. Keep on being yourself man no matter what all the "proper" people say.
+Quentin Honican Thank you sir.
+CARSON FRYOU Same happened to me in high school years. Those were the times a few satanists killed cats and all nationwide media questioned the relation to music with many tv programmes... I remember heavy metal fans were hosted and surprisingly they were not stoned like they were devils and the case closed peacefully.
However my friends who doubted about me now listens to heavy metal and rock.
+mete kavruk Thank you for seeing my POV sir.
+CARSON FRYOU Bassist/vocalist Tom Araya is Catholic.

drum ensemble!!!
Gene Hoglan taught Dave a few things
I was at this actual concert when I was 17. My dad was in the U.S. Air force, stationed in the U.K. until 1991. Drove me and my two best metalhead friends all the way to Wembley from Oxfordshire. Perfect lineup of Suicidal Tendencies, Testament, Megadeth and Slayer. The first Clash of the Titans tour. One of the best nights of my life!
🤔You Lucky Muthrfukr 💪😎🚬....🤭 😁 😆 puhahahaha 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘 🗣️💨I would have ate razor blades to see that concert in 91 when I was 15
p.s. My dad retired career ,25 years, from the Air Force in 1981. Long/ Short, he could go anywhere he wanted to inside Norad at Cheyenne Mountain.
You saw ST JEALOUS
Was he based at Fairford by any chance? Killer line up for that show, mega jealous!
All the way. Like one hour. Lol. Still, cool story.
I was there as a 16 year old. I'm sure they played the song twice, Tom apologising as they were filming a video
Christ, you forget what Dave Lombardo was capable of. What a force of nature behind a drum kit. There are many death metal drummers who blast beat around a kit nowadays but Dave didn't use electronic triggers and he could GROOVE at 220bpm. I've still never heard anything like it to this day.
He made Slayer sound incredible. It was always the drums that stood out to me.
@@livingroomguitarist7 yeah under rated drummer by his own band, I was surprised when I used to read of the bullshit that they didn't consider him an equal member for song writing, as all four guys made the band.
I didn't forget. In fact, he's still doing it 33 years later.
Dudes a legend. He deserves every bit of it. He makes metal swing. No triggers.
Absolutely one of the best, ever.
“People mistake exposure for glorification. We tell the world what people do to each other. They should be offended, but not by us.”
--Slayer
Great quote and im betting it was Jeff who said it. It was he, who started writing about serial killers etc .
You know where this came from? Can’t find it anywhere when I search. I get “how to know you’re dealing with a toxic person” pages.
Exactly, it is said music does not create reality, but reflects it.
Art imitates life. When life begins to imitate art you need to be careful.
So true. People who misunderstand Slayer are idiots who are poor listeners.
The dumbest are those American soldiers who use this song when invading other countries!
This song is specifically a condemnation of their actions.
Saw them live and stood right behind the mosh pit. I've never seen so many people come out with bloody noses heading right for the medical tent. Wild times.
That is insane, love to hear it.
you should make a video on how to write slayer riffs
I went to my first slayer show on their farewell tour. Was right in front of the main moshpit, lost my phone and found three phones searching and a wallet. Returned them all and found my phone eventually.
Regarldless when the show started there was such a brutal crush I saw several ladies crying out because they couldnt breathe. Easily the craziest pit ive ever been in, and ive seen Dying Fetus, Cannibal Corpse, Suffocation
dude mosh pits are no joke i got a fat ass bloody lip from a whitechapel show once xD now i just sit in the front and watch the bands jam :) lmfao
I wish got to see slayer when they where at colorado springs last year
One of the best metal songs ever written. Period!
100% agree
Iconic and timeless. Slayer's influence on extreme metal will persist throughout the ages.
Slayer is so fast that the music video cant keep up
I’d like that comment, but there’s already 69
Supraluminal speed
Bruce Lee on Metal Steroids!
Best comment ever!! I was thinking the same while I was watching it lol 😂 🤟🏼🤟🏼
Thrash metal in a nutshell
Warms my heart to see the kids still appreciating the classics
14 years old!
I'm 12
I'm 14 and I love slayer. But I also like Hip-Hop
12 enjoying

That drum fill @2:22, is the very reason why I feel Dave Lombardo is not just a f*cking beast on the kit, but also the best drummer slayer ever had.
That drum fill at 2:22 has gotten me through many a work out
The drumming of Lombardo was something else make Slayer the best band this years , also the production was another level and the Hanneman song writing was so unique .With Araya voice and King what a dream team ! Ps. this song is the epitome of perfection !
the volume on this video is not loud enough, and I'm not joking.
It's the only low point of this rendering.
I agree
I was like wtf? Are my headphones low
I agree, put this song on and immediately pressed full volume and was a little disappointed. I want my ears to bleed haha
It would not be loud enough anyway
I play a full slayer album with max volume everytime I wake up in the morning
Me too , always Seasons In The Abyss
+El Besazo De Tri-Line sometimes i set it so that cd wakes me up in the morning, great way to start the day.
your neighbors must love it lol
UP TO 11!!!!
FUCK WHEATIES!!!!!!
Man I remember when this video dropped. What a time to be young and into heavy music.
IM RIGHT THERE WITH YOU MY MAN.
BRINGS BACK THE MEMORIES.
LOST A LOT OF FRIENDS. KINDA BITTER SWEET. BUT, I FUCKIN LOVE SLAYER
Yeah, me to, I loved seeing it on *Headbangers ball* and recording it onto an Emerson HI FI VCR and thinking *hell yes* , Now I can watch this killer video, ... over and over now I was 21 then and still love *SLAYER and War Ensemble!*
@@paul.theeightiesluvr.1945 yep headbangers ball they played this video at the end of the show to keep viewers. Kerry was asked about the seattle grunge scene he said he was into soundgarden (fucking soundgarden)
@@rc-hm4ty Hey, there are worse Seattle bands than Soundgarden
If you're ever running late for work, play this song while driving and you'll get there 2 days early.

30 years later and still kicks ass!!
Swift kick in the NUTS🤘🏾
Good always good my bro
Без слов!
No, band went loose long time ago already
@@user-pf7qg9lc6p непонятно, очем,ты.если можно,по-русски.
They barely show Lombardo, what a shame. He is annihilating the drums.
That guy is not human….
I was thinking the same thing and now we see some of the issues we missed way back when and why he's no longer with them. Seems they treated him like shit for a while
He's the best musician in the band.
He's the best drummer of The Big 4! Hands down by a landslide
It's ok. We know it's Dave playing. Best record ever.
I'm 50 years old, and I've been listening to these guys for well over 30 years. Prolly closer to 40. I've seen'em a few times. And they have NEVER dissapointed. Every album, every song, EVERY GODDAMNED RIFF, you know it's Slayer. And they pull something out of me, deep and lizzard-brained. Adrenaline courses through my body, the pain leaves my aching, worn joints, and I am immersed in batle lust. And even now I will enter the pit, shoulders and elbows, fists and feet, heads and hands. And through the sweat, and the blood, and the pain, and the puke, there is brotherhood. There is JOY!!! I've gone to seed a bit, but my old 265# ass can still clear a space! There will soon come a day when I can no longer join the maelstrom. And when that day comes, I will listen to these riffs and remember. And with these memories, I shall always REIGN IN BLOOD!!!!
SLAYER!!!!!!!!! MUTHERFUKKER!!!!!!!
I’m 16 years old, just started listening to rock maybe a year ago. Slayer got me into heavy metal, and I don’t see myself not listening to slayer anytime soon. Sucks they don’t tour though
um alrighty than... smh
Right there with you buddy...
Amen. Caught my first Slayer show in 98. Have to say they converted me that night, went to see them 3 days later at a different venue. If someone looks up UNRELENTING METAL in the dictionary it should have just one word : Slayer.
My first concert ever in Toronto 1999 was Slayer. Didn't know much about them. Left the place ears ringing, my jaws dropped for 2 hours. And the crowd was so much fun ñ, metal but friendly. I was the only with buzz cut.
This was absolute magic hearing new as a teenager. Slayer mosh pits were quite intense. Never gets old.
I was in a Slayer and Slipknot MoshPit in the Same Night at 2012 Mayhem Festival
Regardless of his religion, John Travolta is an amazing singer.
CelticTerrorizer And Samuel L. Jackson is an amazing guitarist.
Canadian Metalhead Indeed. Especially on "Divine Intervention".
Le Communard don't forget Uma Thurman on drums
Lmao..😂
Tom Arya and John Travolta; look alikes? Nah
Slayers sounds soo much better when you can actually hear bass
so Always?
@@dooterscoots2901 Their tone's bass-scooped, I think he means
Yeah, but that was in the first albums or so. Later you couldn't hear shit. I also believe Araya's playing was kinda sloppy. So...
hmmmm, you know you got a point, this version sucks. needs bass.
@@djohanson99 I agree. We need a bass enhanced version
2:21 is one of the sweet little breaks where Lombardo’s talent can be embraced
I was at this show. Clash of the Titans, Wembley Arena 1990. The filmmakers wanted it to be a one-to-one mime with the album track, but Tom wasn’t having any of it. Neither were the crowd…so they played it live anyway (twice if I remember) and let the filmmakers piece it all together later!
This song is 28 years old and still better than any of the garbage that’s out now
yes
the great very best album classic forever legendary of the world 🤘🎸
me too love slayer forever 🤘🎸
very album classic of the world forever legendary 🤘🎸
Aye...the 80's / early 90's will never be matched music wise.
I've been listening to Slayer since 1985, when I bought "Hell Awaits" on vinyl. I was 13 then, and 30 years later, metal is still my first love, & Slayer remains the one band that I can never tire of listening to. They are way better of a band than Metallica, who seem to get "best metal band ever" mentioned entirely too often in the same sentence, but in reality, Slayer is much more representative of the genre, & have released not one, not two, not three, but four classic albums in their career. What's even more amazing is they were released consecutively: Hell Awaits, Reign In Blood, South Of Heaven, & Seasons In The Abyss. Most bands can't muster one or two records of material that will go down as a benchmark in their genre, but this band has, undoubtedly.
I felt bad that no one liked this and its beutiful so i liked it
Yes but Metallica has released 4 amazing albums that represent thrash metal very well. Kill Em All, Ride the Lightning, Master of Puppets, and ...And Justice For All were some of the greatest albums of all time in my book, only followed (obviously) by Slayer's exquisite discography :)
Make that 5 (Show no mercy)
I'm about your age and I have a young son who likes Metallica. He loves Slayer.
Yeah I heard south of heaven and consumed all Slayer tapes and CDs I could find at tower. Metallica is not better or worse just more mainstream, no overt satanic stuff eh? Wearing a ride the lightning shirt to school was easier to pull off than Slayer pentagrams and goat headed demons 😁 ...
TBH hell awaits album is my least favorite... Reign in Blood my favorite hands down. 🤘
The more I listen to War Ensemble, the more I love War Ensemble
How can one of the best songs ever only have 9.5 million views. I have no faith in the world.
la buena musica no es para todos asi de facil
Crappy pop music videos have 10 times that. :/
Was there for this Wembley Arena shoot, Clash Of The Titans, Suicidal Tendencies, Testament, Megadeth and Slayer, great gig.
How old were u then?
I was in Birmingham the night before October 13, 1990 amazing concert especially slayer of course
@@eon14873 me to - what a great gig.
Their best album, one that combines the frenetic energy of Reign in Blood and the heaviness of South of Heaven. One of those rare albums I sing along to, and listen front to back every single time I play it!
this was a great album compared to SOUTH OF HEAVEN .for me personally ,south of heaven is like slayers attempt at a pop album.
dont get me wrong here... when it was first released, me and my friends played this tape 1000s of times and loved having a new slayer album after playing the others 1000s of times as well .i went to the SOH concert when it came to town,and probably have the stub somewhere it was a great show in a tiny club packed with rabid slayer fans. the band actually went to a friends after party (that i missed :-l ) i guess tom and dave were totally cool to everyone and kerry and jeff were total assholes to everyone.lol
imo HELL AWAITS and REIGN IN BLOOD are their best albums musically and lyrically .
@@MrJackcorgi I've always preferred the lyrics of SOH and Seasons. Songs like South of Heaven, Silent Scream, Blood Red and this song have much more important messages than anything on Reign or Hell Awaits. The satanic violence is fun but songs like these are profound. I think Seaons hit the right balance between Reign and SOH even if I prefer the Reign sound better.
@@SonOfTheLion All of them are mostly satirical. Slayer used shock value for clout, of course, but the lyrics are tongue in cheek... I mean, Tom Araya supports experiments of Dr. Mengele as much as war crimes and bloody human sacrifice rituals. Difference is some songs are more gore for sake of it (kinda like Carcass or Napalm Death) and others are deeper but in the end, it's mostly irony on dark topics that were always bread and butter of Metal.
@@KasumiRINA A song like Silent Scream is about abortion and it isn't satire. Jeff and Tom where/are pro-life. Neither is Blood Red's anti-commie message or South of Heavens's warning about our fallen culture. What makes Slayer great is they aren't your run of the mill Death Metal band like Cannibal Corpse. Tom himself has spoken in interviews about how he wants to illuminate the evil in the world so you can find your way to the good.
Probably its my last comment on UA-cam, war ensemble came to my place.
God bless us all, nobody support war, but somehow it happens.
Be strong bro! May the force be with You

Man,i Will do it
Pure Metal 🤘I've been listening to this song since 1990 and still love it like the first day. Slayer Forever.
Every time im tired, i get to enjoy slayer at max volume, plus it wakes me up. Thank you Slayer for existing
I do same thing.When I'm sick, I'm just turn volume up.This music makes me feel good.I love it
I'm fucking crying right now

@Scott Raygor Kerry wrote Piece by Piece.
You might think the singer Tom would be an intimidating person, but if you have met him you know he is actually the coolest dude!
Have you seen the video of Corpsegrinder shopping at Target? All these metal guys are chill dudes, lol.
Timeless piece...
Every time i hear this song it's like I'm back to age of 20 , although I'm 47 now.
I used to party with these guys before they got any gigs… cool dudes .. they worked hard to become who they are and deserve the appreciation that they get..
Did you live in the Huntington Park area?
@@yoli5779 Ft Walton Beach Florida.. they hung out there for at least a year ..
I went to this concert tour for Seasons in the Abyss in California in 1990. It was easily the loudest concert I ever went to and couldn't hear for 3 days, just hissing and ringing. Best concert ever.
I saw them in NY and it was loud as hell just like you are saying. I remember my ears crackling when I was there. I was only 15 and it still is easily one of the best days of my life.
Sometimes it's fun going back to ye olden times in metal: Kerry and Scott had hair! Metallica didn't suck! Good times...
And Jeff was also still alive 😢
Metallica doesn't suck

Slayer, la mejor banda del Thrash, auténticos y respetando siempre la verdadera esencia que siempre han tenido
2:22 The drum fill I’ve replayed untold thousands of times over the past 30 years. Still leaves me slack jawed shocked.

Dave's drum sound on the 'Seasons in the Abyss' and 'South of Heaven' albums is at its best! No other Slayer albums come close drum-wise!!
I dunno, man. Reign in Blood, now THAT'S a drummer's album! 🤘🤘
@@JamesinAZ, was just referring to the drum sound quality! Reign In Blood has a much more raw sound than South and Seasons. 👍

I'm rebember the day that i see this video on MTV, 13-4-1992 now i listening in 2021 !!! Rip Jeff Hanmenamn !!!
I remember playing this song in Highschool, and trying it out for our airjams, the teachers immediately rejected it, they said it had too much kill in it! My buddy at the time, that was pretending to be the guitar player Jeff Hanneman, was headbanging so hard, he couldn't make it into school, the next day, he said his neck felt like a spaghetti noodle when he rolled out of bed! Lol!
We played this is high school but we got away with it. Lol
I can tell my neighbors love Slayer too cause when I crank it up, they start banging on the walls.
😂🤣
Hahaha
Fucking still and will... Always be one of the most crushing metal songs!
One of their best songs. Right up there with "Angel of Death", "South of Heaven", "Raining Blood", etc.
I prefer Hell awaits and Seasons in the abyss
@@herbertfeder8771 *Slayer* REALLY needs to put out an *''Anthology Album''* for us, True SLAYER fans that need to hear everything from *Crionics, Die by the Sword, at Dawn they sleep, and Hell awaits to Chemical Warfare to South of Heaven, Spill the Blood and WAR ENSEMBLE !!!!*

My fav Slayer track is Spill the Blood. I love the fast stuff but they have so much of it, all kinda blends together. The heavier, slower, creepier songs stand out. Opposite case with Black Sabbath where gems like Paranoid and Children of the Grave are shining between gloom and doom.
R.I.P. Jeff Hanneman. 7 Years today... Still Reigning
One of greatest metal bands
I am russian. It's totally strange to hear this song now. Even, in my country the government forbids to use term "war". Mad time.
But soon the war will end.
I love Slayer
So do I. This war will end with the victory of Ukraine
Not unless you get rid of your warmonger president!
If you only pulled heads out of ass on February 24, that does not mean there was no war before - it has been going on several years...
@Alexander R. sad you don't know the truth as to what's going on there. Putin wants to remove a US installed govt under Obama in Ukraine. It's horrible what's happening there, but Putin is not the enemy
Just wondering, do ordinary Russians believe putin is right or do they realise he is just a bluffing mafiosi warlord?

He was an asshole but was so talented. Many of the most talented seem to be pricks but they provide something to us so I don’t care.
@@metalhead8646 how is he an asshole?

I was a huge Dead Kennedy’s fan back in the early eighties even though I was a young teenager. I loved Slayer from the first time I heard them. I was at this gig. The feeling amongst the fans waiting to get in was one of extreme camaraderie. We were all waving Slayer banners and sharing what our favourite tracks were. There were two American chicks there that had followed them to England for their gigs here. It’s very hard to find words to describe what the gig was like. It was an assault on the senses. It was so loud and brutal. I’d taken speed before going in, so I was full of energy and it all sounded so good. I remember my ears ringing all the way back down to Portsmouth on the train. The dawn came and I had sore legs and a sore neck, but I was still buzzing from the gig. I sneaked in a dictaphone to make a bootleg tape of the gig. The sound quality was terrible but people still bought it.
This song reminds me of my state history class, my teacher was a coach and a pretty big fan of Slayer. There was one time he let me put this song on in class because some girl wanted to know what the hell we'd be talking about. That was a damn good class.
Favorite Slayer album.
I've ALWAYS loved how Tom stands there chanting lyrics all nice and calm. Out of the big 4 Slayer rocks the hardest,the fact that Tom's neck is all screwed up from years of head banging, alin3 proves that you don't hear any of the other 3 bands saying they can't headbang anymore ,ALL HAIL THE GREAT SLAYER!
Yeah, i use to think Slayer rocked the hardest, but Metallica takes it to the next level!! Both bands are great!!
@@greatriffishere Metallica have extreme ups and downs, Slayer are always consistent but a bit samey. Both are legends.
00:26 love that, i can listen Lombardo's double bass for an hour
Good argument. Check this slayer version ua-cam.com/video/xbLsdcFghuw/v-deo.html
Im a pre-teen who loves metal,thrash in special, and i got to say that Slayer is a masterpiece,its sad that im never seeing them live
I saw them only 1 X, & it was w/all original members in 2010, & I will never forget it! They played 'Seasons' in its entirety as it was the 20th anniversary of that masterpiece of an album! I am sorry you never got to see them live, but, they have released many Live DVD's & BR's though! It's not the same as actually being there, but, at least you can enjoy what they sound like live to some degree! It is a shame the Live concert they filmed of "Decade Of Aggression" was never actually released, although they claimed back in '91 that it would be! Sucks when bands mislead their fans!
@@v-for-vendetta1776 Yeah! Thanks a lot! I'll try to buy br's and dvd's!!!! 😁😁😊😊
@@janellarugby17 No problem!
Damn. 80's and early 90's were the best time to be around in terms of good music. I was lucky enough to be there.
I've seen Slayer live twice. Moshed in the pit to them both times. Just a completely surreal and awesome experience.
Slayer is a timeless band
Seen them in Milwaukee 2004. They played this right after Disciple. Greatest intro to a concert. 🤘
such raw energy, after so many years apart, still gives me goosebumps
This was the first music I ever bought. I still have the cassette. Easily one of the best Slayer albums.
Their last decent one.
Their best for me
Evil D no not even close hell awaits. Haunting the chapel
the very great best album classic forever legendary of the world 🤘🎸
me too love slayer forever 🤘🎸
Did they even try to match the video with the audio?
Doesn't look like it
The fans did not allow them to lip sync and booed the whole time they filmed. So they did the song live and used the footage
Rashid Sivaji Who cares go eat some curry shithead
I'd take that as a compliment, curry is delicious.
It’s metal, no need to
Decade of Aggression was one of my favourite albums in high school. I discovered Slayer after hearing them on the Fall Line Flim's Critical Condition snowboarding vid from '91.
My fondest memory of Slayer would have to be the time I got suckered into going to a four-day Christian retreat (not relegious) and on the 12 hour bus ride, listening to Seasons and Reign the whole way. When a goodie Christian kid asked me what I was listening to, I showed him the tape cover and he blessed himself before squealing on me to the elders lol. Despite their disapproval, I kept listening by myself. Best F'n choice I made that whole summer.
This hits different now
Can’t believe this jam is over 30 years old.
💪👍
It will live for ever
I don't always rip shit up, but when I do...SLAYER is my soundtrack
The Jeff's fast riffs and Lombardo's hard and virtuous drumming made what Slayer was. R.I.P to Jeff and the legend Slayer.
It's my first time listening to a song by Slayer. Definitely adding this one to my playlist 😌
Funny thing is I got an ad for Slayer's Pride in Prejudice MV before this vid. Now that's some Slayermania right there lol.
almighty_luigi same!
I have been a metal fan for the past 30 years and I am very proud of it
Good ole classical music warms my soul. ❤️🥲
"The final swing is not a drill, its how many people I can kill!!" Hell yes!! Thanks Slayer for all the years of great music :)
As usual Vevo screwing up the videos. This one is completely off sync.
they just showed live footage while playing the studio version of the song lol but yeah gj vevo
Yes
Fuck it we’ll do it live
@@notbot8830 i was there yes that's what tom said mate. Clash of the titans 1990 it was a mental gig. Suicidal tendencies, Testament, megadeth all there too.🤘
Vevo is a bunch of pop music rainbows that never listened to slayer before. What did you expect?
damn, the mix on this song is one of the best i think i've ever heard!
Seen them in Austin a few years back. Stood just three feet from Jeff during the whole show. Great show.
This is one of the hardest heavy metal songs to play.
I remember when Kerry King had long hair. So many years ago. First time I saw Slayer was in 1985. And another 18 times after that.
Chilean Proud, Tom Araya ! , Proud To be Chilean As Tom ! I Love this song
Mucho crédito para un solo país, y dave lombardo es cubano así que es un orgullo para Latinoamérica
Diego González ! Me imagino el orgullo de los metaleros chilenos.... saludos desde Honduras 🇭🇳.... si no te ofende
Tomás Forster pues así es un orgullo soy una india hondureña, que amo a Slayer es una banda de respetos , desde que tengo 12 años lis escucho ahora tengo 44 años
Why not be proud of Pinochet then? Being proud of genetical accident is as idiotic as being proud of being tall and handsome.
fiutello, some idiots still like pinochet, not decent people like us. no flags, no politics, no fkin hate to the other, no racism! aguante slayer giles qls
Regardless of classic albums or not they have always maintained quality and consistency in whatever they have released.
This was the first Slayer song that I heard back in '92, and it still rocks as much as it did then, more than 30 years later! A perfect compliment to my "nerdy" wargaming and tabletop roleplaying, with a smidgen of alcohol and drugs 😂
I was at this gig, aged nineteen.
Blisteringly loud and earth shattering.

Metal will never be as good as this. Slayer are iconic.
A Brilliant song. Brilliant video. Brilliant song title. And all these three things go perfectly together.
The clip is made in black and white, which gives it a darker and militaristic atmosphere (my first associations with black and white films are a WWII and pre-war chronicle of the XX century). This video does not need excerpts of military newsreels from the Second World War, because the video itself is an anti-war protest of the band members.
The musical component of the War Ensemble is no less impressive. The reef, reminiscent of a military march during the verse, best conveys the atmosphere of the song itself. At the same time, the song remains quite formidable and aggressive. The murderous solo, that begins after the protracted cry of «War», will not allow you to forget why the song is called the ”War Ensemble”.
The lyrics also deserve special attention. No primitive lines, just poetry in the style of Slayer. “Sport the war” is an amazing comparison that is firmly hammered into memory. Every line in the song is imbued with horror.
The War Ensemble is a masterpiece, that will never lose its relevance as long as the Holy Wars take place…
