True fact proven by biologists: everytime Tom smiles, 300 people get cured from depression
You know, I'm pretty misserable, but that smile, I'm sitting here smiling and laughing because of it...His smile is great not just because it's physically awesome, but it's genuine, and not fake; without that, it wouldn't be magical.
true
@@xblackcatx1312 i understand. Depression sucks but music is the cure.
Can confirm
It is true when Tom laughs.i love you uncle tom!
Tom in interview: Take care of your parents. Hahahaha.
Tom on stage: AUSCHWITZ! THE MEANING OF PAIN! THE WAY THAT I WANT YOU TO DIE!!!
Rolling Rock After hearing this interview, Tom had a some good points.
I watch a documentary "METAL".
Awesome interview, but just to put it out there:
They were in it for the money; they are not racist, but they were accused of that, but Jeff said that they ran with that angle, & Tom is a practicing Catholic.
"We said on our album, "God Hates Us All", God doesn't hate us... He really loves us ALL"
Tom Araya - METAL
documentary interview.
The song you mention is told like a documentary. With some parts from the perpetrator's view. So Tom is telling a gruesome (but historically true) story and he's like an actor, saying lines from another person's mind or telling a story like somebody who's describing a scene.
Rolling Rock You all right in my book.
My friend saw them in Oahu last year & I was popped on pot charges.
That's all right; there's a next time, & I hope him & Ice-T, get together to do the ultimate album.
Besides all of that, I would definitely burn a few & toss some Heineken's with Tom, & hear some Hannemann stories.
If that ever does happen, I'll invite you along. ✌✌🤘🤘
Dr. Phibes in Red I never thought about that.
Thanks Doc!!! 🤘🤘🤘🤘
And he is also saying that he would like to get rid of malicious people and that he gets upstage and just wants to entertain, not telling ANYONE what to do...
Tom’s laugh is contagious. He was the happiest man in metal.
Uranium interview when I was in 7th and he gave this interview that just illuminated me! His joy never, ever ends! 8th Grade, Washington DC trip one goal REIGN IN BLOOD CD!
Tom's laugh can bring universal peace
10:55 🎅🏼
His laugh is as good as his infamous awesome screams! A+++
Fuck yeah! I'm not that much older that Tom Araya but I keep day dreaming whenever he gets interviewed that his my metal grandpa! Loved my actual grandpa and all experiences we had together but imagine being the grandson of Tom Araya...
I think I would rather meet him than any musician

This kid is better than the whole of Loudwire
And his fanbase is not retarded like the lowdwire one .
dude i totally agree , the questions he comes up with are just so unexpected and different from the ones every interviewer asks so you know they answer it truthfully and they show whothey really are.
Agreed. Their misleading titles and conclusion less content are irritating
And the conversations are not only interesting, they're sweet and sincere. These always make me smile.
Gruhammed from Wikipedia fact or fiction seems nice
0:13; Hearing Tom Araya yell "SLAYER!!" is probably one of the most epic things ever. It's awesome.
The heavy metal world is going to miss that iconic tom scream hopefully he stays kind of active in music even if its not with slayer
Just tremendous!
@@paddythetangs I would totally listen to a Tom Araya solo album, it doesn't even have to be remotely close to metal.
This kid is by far better at interviewing musicians than anyone I have ever seen he lets them talk and his questions are on point good job young man your an inspiration
I came in the comments to make an almost identical post!
Kid loves metal. He just interviewed God himself!!
He's an actor now, just starred in Terrifier 2.
Damn right!!!!
@@josephkasprzyk4758 1 of the 4 gods of metal that is he isnt the only one
This is a real musician, no ego, no bullshit, straight up honesty and nothing but words of wisdom, class act 🤘
It's probably easier with kids..
Kids, especially like this guy, are very disarming. They haven't been corrupted by ego.. yet.
@@disf5178 tom is an incredible human being. his character was proven many times, also.. it's an interview.. it's surprising people get so upset over people talking about themselves. like..that's what it's for? and alot of people love talking about themselves. it's natural.
@@guitarplayer1495
You really took a simple comment praising this kid and turned it into something completely off the rails. You're ridiculous! I didn't say a single bad thing about anyone. Not a single bad thing about Tom. Nothing I said even implies anything bad about Tom. Maybe YOU think poorly about Tom Araya and assume others are...or maybe Tom has a bad reputation that you're upset about. Whatever it is, learn to read and learn to not jump to conclusions.
@@disf5178 "it's probably easier with kids" what is easier? i love tom... the fact that you think otherwise is ironic lol. the OP was insinuating that other people who've been interviewed typically are more egotistical and self centered. that's the whole point of the interview. you've completely taken my point out of context lol i think you're projecting here
@@guitarplayer1495 reread my first comment. Nothing about it implies Tom is an egotistical jerk. Tom is acting playful and childlike. I don't see that as an insinuation of anything or some underhanded slight. I was praising the kid and the format. I've seen many interviews with Tom and this is unique.. I believe children are disarming. They can help bring the inner child in us out.
You jumped to conclusions. I stand by that.
Humanity would be better if more people were as humble as Tom Araya.
Amen.
Yep
@Bave Drokie you can make ZEUS I president.regards from (Hell 😈enic)Republic
Bave Drokie He can’t, he was born in Chile
@@Daily_Bassist Obama wasn't born here either
Tom Araya is such a class act. I've seen him interact with several children on YT vids and the guy is totally present, non-condescending, and honest. Kudos, Tom, you rock.
he's actually secretly santa
Dominic Del Principe. He.only gets.$1300.00 a show
oiyabastard i seriously doubt that!! Can u back that claim up?
I saw Slayer on their final tour, and know Randy from Lamb Of God so I got backstage. So many parents had their kids and Tom probably spent more time with the kids. I said something about it and Randy tells me "Man, he does this every show. He loves the kids."
Its slayer thing, inncredible one. Araya, King, Lombardo. And that real genius, Hanneman.
I think it's so cool how Tom doesn't change his answers for the kid. Giving him a dose of reality.
Kids don’t need kids telly. Kids music. Kids everything. That’s just to make money. Kids want someone to be real, honest, trustworthy and fun. Tom is all that. He’s like that amazing schoolteacher or boss you never forget
@@OlafProtas a father of two, I totally agree 💯💯💯
This kid is my favorite metal interviewer ever. They don't dodge him at all. He pulls the best out them and it's always a heart to heart conversation. He has a very bright future ahead of him.
Most interviewers should take note from this young man and let the other person speak. It makes a far better interview
*thumb up*
Yes. Joe Rogan for one.
Hahaha Tom has stain on shirt lollolololololl
Aftee reading your comment I was thinking unless you're nervous as you can do that just from being nervous
Thats the purpose of an interview.
I love how Tom laughs after every answer
Paco Miracles almost seems like nervous laughter to me...like, "damn, this kid is asking REAL questions"
Paco Miracles ... because he wants to show his bleached teeth untypical for such a tough metal guy.
Tom has often done this in interviews...going back to the start. He is a great personality when he is comfortable in an interview - always honest.

ferox965 true! But you have to admit, he takes de little guy serious and even answers uncomfortable questions in a very honest matter.
Tom is a Cool Dude. Intelligent, street Wise, and Soft Spoken.🤘🤘
He has that inner peace that People search for...
God bless you Tom
Tom is such a humble guy. Met him in a dennys of all places and he sat down and talked for like 20 min. Was so cool.
Ryoji Kitomi
Where was the Denny's? Just curious..that's fuckin AWESOME..I think I'd pass out if I ever met him or Hetfield..maybe a few others but mainly those two..
metallicatlaura I don’t think Hetfield would be as interesting to chill with as Araya. Hetfield is too awkward and shy
and cries
Metal Otaku Banzai wow, that is fuckin cool

He meant "wicked work" as in "cool work"
Tom is such a down to earth guy, very gentle and polite. Very nice man. True legend.
They say Tom araya's laughter is the cure to Corona virus
I've idolized Slayer my whole life and this is the most personal, realest interview with Tom I've ever seen... Thank you HEAPS for this man 🖤🖤💀💀
Such heavy music but such a big warm heart. Love You Tom🤘🏽
tom now makes you feel like he is a good father figure and he is a down to earth person and he has alot of respect
S Forti exactly
Carlos_ sk8s & +S Forti Tom looks a bit like father time.
He would've been great in a " Bill & Ted " movie, or a "Mad Max" sequel.
Thats right he is such a nice humble man having fun can see it in his face. All my respect for tom hes great
that's why the world needs inmigration.
i loved his quote "deja-vu is life telling you're in the right Path"
inspirational quote destroyed
The toughest looking guy is usually the softest heart 👊🔥
Tom's got a smile that can really unite people and bring them together. He's an amazing guy. Love him.
Tom is a gentle soul.
No, he is evil👹
wow tom is a soulful dude. dont judge a book by his cover right.
rickie bonifacio you are absolutely right, I would have never taught he such a cool, chilled guy.
He's a much more spiritual guy thn I ever gave him credit for. I think that's because King is always so ready to give a comment that he became the de facto mouthpiece for the band. The others didn't seem to relish always having amic in their faces.
He kind of answers like a Buddhist monk, a sentence, a laugh. Does not matter if what he said is sad, serious or not.
Sentence, laugh.
..wtf buddhism o yes by itself ...no for humanity "SLAYER is regina...excu..
@@vichainilolo7964 what?
I subconsciously do this myself a lot both in text and verbally speaking 😆
I love it when Tom smiles he’s a very happy man
That's why I love metal and its people... most of them are honest, sensitive, caring and know what's actually important in life.
I have a theory about that. Metal is the music of the misfit. Always was and still is. Our music is often the place we go to, when we've been picked on, when life starts to suck...that's why us metalheads love our bands so much. The people we admire in our bands understand this on a deep level, and maybe were in our shoes once...
The artists seem to enjoy this interview way more than the "adult/professional" interviewers
1504Shawn I think it's because kids ask more interesting questions like "if you could rid the world of one thing". And adults ask more generic questions
Hope Gruhamed gets the memo
This kid is a good interviewer and isnt negative like so many interviewers are. Agenda driven journalism angers the people being interviewed. Look at Anselmo and his run ins then watch him chill with this little dude.
This youngster is a genius, He gets the absolute honest answers from dudes ive listened to for decades! he disarms them, and he should. These guys are honest with him, because LPP isnt opinionated, hes still pure. Great job kiddo!!
Best Tom Araya interview ever. Tom really shows his wisdom Between starting out and becoming who SLAYER it's too this day. Gotta respect the Old School man. There's nothing like Old Schoolers.
I second that
See everyone, metal's not scary!!!
It's love...
Solé Parkin I'd rather call it emotion
Solé Parkin Metal sounds good, but has the worst message then any music- serious violance, Satanism. Sucude drugs, etc
D Cheney listen to death perennial quest or without judgement, the worst message is from gangster rap, THAT promotes drugs, alcohol, murder, womanization, etc.
Consumer of Souls and cupcakes The entire music industry is of the Occult, but rock is debatable the worst messages, but yes rap and even top 40 is influenced by the Devil nowadays. Most music promotes immorality drugs, drinking and following Levey to do as thou wilt. But, O love rock.
Metal is a fucking religion. regardless of sexuality or race if you see a fuckin metal shirt on someone you just click and begin talking about the music. Especially if you have a battle jacket then its even a better conversation because you have so many bands to mention and then a special bond begins to happen. its amazing experience. Metal is the best religion ever.
I met Tom once when I worked in a nightclub called The Concert Factory in Costa Mesa back in '82 ('83 maybe.. Way back then). Before that, it was the infamous Cuckoo's Nest. Anyways, he came in by himself just to check out some of the bands playing. I worked the lighting and had access to the balcony. He asked if it was alright to watch from up there. I said sure. We didnt talk much as it was hard to with the bands playing. But what we did get in was real. He's a real super guy. I was thinkin he's prolly gonna spit blood on me or his eyes would glow red while he talked in reverse or something like that. First thing he did was put his hand out to shake it, big smile, soft spoken and very attentive. Not at all what I expected. This guys a true gentleman.
Well did you know he was in slayer then?
@@oldmatevb
Yes. I've seen Slayer when, believe it or not, they were a 5 piece band playing covers in Anahiem ar a place called Woodstock theater back in real early 80s. 80 81. Somewhere around then.
South of Heaven is a killer album. Seasons in the Abyss is kick ass too.
And show no mercy, hell awaits and reign in blood
REIGN through SEASONS for me. Like a metal testimony. Love SLAYER, have purchased their albums and shirts and gone to the shows. I am grateful to them for being dependable. They didnt sell out. Ever.
It makes me so happy just because of how nice Tom is, even though he's in such a "scary" band. Love you Tom.
Amazing interview as always! Way better than most of the "adult" interviewers!! Tom is such an amazing guy.
Lukas Wuttke Those uptight professional types are usually boring as shit and take journalism way too seriously. I love the down to earth vibe and fun questions
You got the like him.

GODS OF METAL TO EVER EXIST!!!!...LOVE YOU TOM ARAYA!!..I still remember when I met you & your wife in Texas!!..y'all...were so super cool down to earth!! we love you tom & Kerry..& Paul..&...Gary!!..and we still respect & love "JEFF & DAVE DOWN HERE IN TEXAS"!!..JEFF & DAVE ARE A HUGE PART OF SLAYERS SOUND!!..SLAYER FOREVER!! TILL THIS FAKE WORLD ENDS!!
Lukas Wuttke yeah,he seemed more at ease,I am in awe of his effect on metal
Wow pretty much the most awesome interview ever, I love how present Tom is. Not to mention how brutally honest he is to a kid like that, to tell him the raw truth, that's an awesome show of respect to the kid. That's balls. And a big fuckin' heart.
What I really like in Tom Araya here is that he really dives into the questions. He really thinks and at some points literally wrestles and chews the questions to give a proper and serious answer. That shows he really takes the interview seriously and, even more important, the interviewer. That's classy. Hats off to both of them for delivering a talk like this 👍!
I have watched many, many interviews with metal stars and rock gods, but I have to say... Elliot here, has such a one-up on all of the other interviewers. These guys, like Phil and Tom, show the utmost respect and compassion when they are speaking with him. They are aware that he is a child, and seem to treat him with the openness and purity that aught to be afforded kids. But they also don't treat him like an idiot... rightly so. Because lastly, Elliot asks incredible questions. Keep up the good work young sir!
Tom is the coolest guy ever...
Tom has the best laugh in Thrash Metal history along with Bobby Ellsworth
Drunken Skulls You quite right about that.🤘🤘🤘
Drunken Skulls what about James hetfield?
Ryan Murphy i was thinking the same thing lol
Scott Ian has a pretty hilarious laugh too, but Tom tops his for sure
Big 4 of Laughing : 1.James Hetfield 2.Tom Araya 3.Bobby Ellsworth 4.Scott lan
Tom is a wonderful person!!
Young gentleman is asking very insightful questions. I think he'll do fine later on in life.
This was the most real interview I have seen of Tom Araya.
Wow! To hear Tom talking about God and how he “leaves it in his (meaning Gods) hands” and accepting what he lays out before him and hoping he is following the right path........That just blows me away. He has a much firmer grip on what God is about more than a lot of so called Christians. I knew there was a reason I never felt guilty about being a Christian AND a fan of Slayer!
I'm proud to be a Christian Slayer fan too
Exactly!
Same, brother!
Same here lml.
TheAxe4Ever 100% agree.
Elliot is an awesome dude. He is proof that metal will touch the lives of younger people and hopefully itll make our future a little brighter
South of Heaven was my first Slayer album. I bought it when it first came out back in 1988. I was 18 years old then. After watching this interview of Tom Araya, I’m even more of a bigger fan. He’s Tom Araya is good person by heart.
Such a friendly dude Tom, and such a good interviewer lil dude...SLAAAYER
Tom Araya ...an amazing amazing dude..great metal and a class act
That was one of the best interviews I've seen.
justin thymes thanks!
Little Punk People Elliott, I've seen a lot of your interviews with some of the greatest musicians & great minds.
This interview you did with Tom Araya of SLAYER, has now made you solid.
And how Tom was talking wisdom with you.
Cherish it... because once you get that kind of knowledge, no one can take it away from you.
Oh btw, I totally dig on your last interview with Body Count.
Okay Little Punk Dude, you can level with this Big Punk Dude... did you bring those Uncrustables for Ice-T to munch on?
Funny 😆😆😆😆😄
Before I go, I've got a band of the legendary 80's multitudes:
interview Joe Escalante, Warren Fitzgerald, Dave Quackenbush, & Josh Freese of The Vandals.
And when you get with them, you tell them Jonny Phoenixx, a/k/a Da Foilman From Maui sent you. 🤘🤘🤘👍👍👍✌✌✌
Jon-Eric Phoenixx
Jon-Eric Phoenixx kid you are amazing. great line of questioning. brings the inner cjild out of all of us. kep up the good work
How can you not like Tom, what an interview!
I met Tom Araya once, h'es the same, absolutly charming
What a man. It's impossible to hate him
I am a huge fan of Metal music. Interviews like this just show how metal musicians are regular people who choose to express their feelings and beliefs through their music. Mainstream society would have everyone believe that Metal music is evil, which is a load of crap. When I was a kid, the Vietnam war was in full swing. I was terrified of being drafted and having to leave my home and go fight in a foreign land. As a means of fighting my fears, I had my plastic army men fight imaginary wars on my bed, planning battles, ambushes, etc. This helped me to put war into a perspective that I could deal with. The same idea applies to Metal music. It helps us face our fears, deal with concepts which are horrible, and in a sense, lift the vail of the unknown.
This comment needs to go viral!
Well put
I love meatl music I know what it’s like to want to express yourself and people say mean things that are not true about the music you like high suck because of that and made want to write music and express how I’m feeling To let out my feelings out because sometimes people make us mad I can’t sing I suck at that but I’m good at rapping it’s not just meal they can let out how their feelings rap can to but now rap is not about that anymore so I wanted to Bering back the true meaning of music because meatl is not screaming crap that people call it it’s people have feelings that they want to tell the world how there feeling like how rap and other genres and people can Relate to that and people care about that stuff
Well put, mainstream society doesn’t understand metal. It is the music of a lifestyle and it’s what we are and who we r.
@@wigpig6993 wwwwhat?

Tom was for sure a gift from god! Bless his metal heart!
This kid is brilliant. Better than 99% of music journalists.
He's fucking reading questions, which somebody shows him off of camera
@@dres3456 i think its more like type of questions he asked and he also let the interviewee to answer the questions,unlike other journalist who is often to interrupt the interviewee and not giving them time to answer question
People who make extreme music are sometimes the coolest and most down to Earth people. Tom is the proof, a pure legend
So cool that you get to sit right next to my favorite bands! 🤘🏾
This is one of the best interviews, I've ever seen.
Metalband members are literally the best people on the planet. Not just because they play metal but because theyre so down to earth
GOD LISTENS TO SLAYER!

Damn Tom drops heavy wisdom on this kid.
seriously this kid really knows how to take a good interview, ask intersting geniune questions
I never get bored
nice played.
The kid gave condolences for jeff. .
Somehow Eliot got one of the best Araya interviews ever. I think this is my favorite LPP video to date
Mad respect to Tom, for how he handled the question about how people treat one another. You can tell it breaks his heart to be so honest, but has too much respect to answer with bullshit "because it's a kid". Kids are people too, and constantly prove their intelligence, awareness, and observation skills. He has too much respect for the little guy to tell him that the future looks bright.
That said, humans will surprise you sometimes - I think the bigger issue is that we've likely passed the point of no return, and even if we all joined hands tomorrow, I'd be skeptical that we could turn everything around enough to prevent what seems inevitable. The last 100 or so years has severely fucked us, even if we smartened up immediately.
What an awesome guy!!
Elliott, At 10:16 you were so respectful the way you mentioned Jeff, most interviewers don't put it that way, they just talk about it, nice one mate so thoughtful and respectful.
First, James Hetfield - now Tom Araya?? This kid is killin' it!!
hi
Hope Dave Mustaine and Joey Belladonna comes next . Then the whole big 4 singers wouldve been interviewed.
Tom is very cool! Humble and thoughtful!🙏👍
This is in my recommended 4 days after the slayer concert I wasn’t able to go to thanks for making me more sad youtube
Fucking love Tom Araya what a cool dude. Saw them open up this leg of the Tour in Bemidji MN, I drove 4.5 hours, worth every minute. Behemoth and Lamb of God opened.
Nate Landherr saw slayer the first time in 86....15 x. twice in my hometown.. which was 2 weeks ago....
I was at that show too. Drove 4 hours as well. Slayer killed it!
Fuck yea!!!
You drive from the Twin Cities?
Yeah suburbs lol
I have told people for years that Tom was down with God and no one believed me.... There you go people
@Steve Well, there is no evidence of such "things", but same You can't disprove the existance of immaterial world relying on material tools, right? Therefore it's called belief, because You can't know it. You may just believe one way or another.
Man, I want to hug Tom.
I heard on Christmas Eve, if you leave a cold beer and a metal tape out Ole Saint Tom will come by
Yay!!! 😃
hahahaha
Underrated comment
im glad to find out that the "Devil worshipping" rock stars from the 70's and 80's are actually more christian and better people than the douchebag televangelists that used to bash them...
yea..all the fake smiles and presentations of those evangelists make them rather cold inside..
Agreed
Leper messiahs
Dude there used to be a guy on TV (back in the 80's) named Pastor Gary Geenwall or maybe Greenwalt - but he was one of the "backmasking" preachers back in the day - totally hilarious to hear what these people imagined they were hearing - he's prob on UA-cam somewhere - but holy smokes it was funny!
It’s just a façade
Not only a great frontman but a very down to earth character. Love you, Tom; Love you, Slayer.
He's the cutest. Saw Slayer last week. It was F'N EPIC. After watching this video I gotta say, Mr. Araya, you sir are a class act.
This little man has Tom nearly speechless!! Some amazing and thought provoking questions. Dont let this dude near the President! Tom is such a class act, they way he gives his time and personality to these young journalists.
tom is such a humble and deep person, what a great interview.
True story, Tom and the band rented rehearsal space from my studios in Orange, Calif. where they wrote Rein in Blood and South of Heaven . They played everyday for a month pretty much non-stop, so I got to know them as friends. IN RED Rehearsal studios if you want to look it up. One day I had a thought, I'll get the band bibles with their name on them. So I did. I was only able to give one of them a bible due to a printing error, it was Tom. He was blown away thanked me and told me he'll use it for reference for lyrics. Tom due you still have your Bible? Buckner R.I.P. Jeff
Yeah, he used it for the God Hates Us All album cover 😂
Elliot gets some of the most honest and personal responses during his interviews.
Tom Araya, THE most cheerful man in metal.
It’s very cool to see this side of Tom.
people like this is why I became a Metalhead 30 years ago..........\\m//
I love how he takes every question serious and gives his honest thoughts in full detail rather than answering the kid's question with one or two word replies. Tom is the man.
Very humble and honest guy, huge respect! 🤘🏾
I love the way Tom SCREAMS "SLAYER !"
Whats the paint marker for.
