Slayer - Fight Till Death - Felt Forum NYC 88

[brnleague99]

I wish they'd bring this song back to the setlist. I loved that they brought back Evil Has No Boundaries. Now they need to bring back Fight Till Death. It's so damned underrated.

[GunJack3100]

THRASH TIL DEATH!!!!!!!!!!!!! ROAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[kidpein]

Dave is god...we need to put him on some more meth

[GabrielTheDrummer96]

[GabrielTheDrummer96]

What was "The Seat Cushion Riot"?!

[nikkisixxfan86]

@GabrielTheDrummer96 I wasn't there; I'm just a kid, but from my knowledge it was a show in New York where the crowd was so wild that they tore out seat cushions from under them, metal parts and all, and threw them throughout the show. also, lots of crowdsurfing, stagediving, etc. Apparently, Tom had to try several times to mellow the crowd out, and was even hit by a seat cushion at one point. But, that's just what I've heard.

@GabrielTheDrummer96

The crowd ripped the seat cushions from the seats in the room and threw them around and lit them on fire and shit.

ORGANIZED RELIGION IS THE CANCER OF MANKIND.

[Zyborggian]

DAMN This is cool

Im not much of a guy for loud places or parties....

But being able to go to a concert like this in the 80s would be AWESOME AS FUCK

[krapptacular]

I was there, fucking nice post.  thanks

[Bobarino11]

I was at this concert when I was 16. the date was august 31st 1988. My very first concert ever, then they played in october of that same year in Brooklyn, the Lamour's club in Bay Ridge

[glasgowdmon]

FUCKIN' SLAYER

[Mutatis29]

usa rocks

[EddySwass]

I think Warrant and White Lion opened the show.I love the ballad 'when the children cry" and I think slayer are good as well.They should do some slower acoustic stuff.

[thebeat945]

All four heavily Slayer and Metallica influenced. Possessed and Exodus too. The only Euro band that was really doing their own thing was Celtic Frost. Even those Norwegian Black metal clowns were ripping off Blasphemy. These days, of course, the sped-up-Iron-Maiden thing is pretty popular.

[Dropkick32X]

If Slayer isn't a satin worshiping band like ppl say, why do I see an inverted cross? Can someone explain that to me?

[LanciaTurbo]

why does it matter? it's just a way to show their hate to christianity and religion

[Cero0510]

They just put it for provoking religious people who can`t let other have different opinion

[RushedFatality]

slayer isn't satanic.. tom araya (please mind my spelling) is catholic he says so in the "Metal: A Headbangers Journey" documentary. Almost all american bands are not really satanic but the Norwegian black metal are truly satanic

[DarkRattlehead]

No they're not. Only some of them are, and in some cases, not all the members are. Ok, Dissection was a Satanic Band, but otherwise, they just used the satnic stuff as an image, like Venom, Hellhammer, Slayer Sarcopago, etc did before them

[Jonsk12394]

@RushedFatality - Totally man. Im Norwegian, and i remember all the fuzz in the Media about the Burning of Churches, Sacrificing wimen, Killing faggots and shit from the black metal bands. Gaahl from Gorgoroth is a pretty sick bastard

[Thrashpirate0627]

Great solo Jeff Hanneman! Listen to arxidiancl and evilagression duke it out, it's kinda funny. They're both retarded.

[cthrudreams]

amazing!!!

[kwpower29]

Fight Till Death and Evil fuckin rule!

[tzabellas]

SLAYER fucking RULEZZZZ..... cheerz from Greece lds....

[Stonedead1991]

Don´t get upset about this, but it´s pretty well known fact that metal is much popular here in Europe than in America.

This is for my opinion the best song in Show No Mercy! This is killer song form a killer band!

[slaytanic138]

GOD DAMN I FUCKING LOVE SLAYER!!!!

[666EPIDEMIC]

god bless america

[thebeat945]

Oh, you're just uptight because Europeans-with the odd exception-can't play thrash. Doing a Priest/Maiden sound and speeding it up isn't thrash. Sorry!!

[bubasch]

Ooh my friend, At The Gates, The Haunted are thrash metal-up-your-ass! And not to mention the whole swedish death metal scene. Without sinking to low here, America has since the Florida scene not contributed much to the extreme metal movement. With the splendid exception of Nile of course, the best of the best. The European scen is ever so vital!

[LastDayInSin]

he didn't say extreme metal, he said thrash specifically

[slaytanic138]

Good point, I have too agree.

[SlaytanicWarfare]

whats about german thrash: sodom, kreator....

thats more than "speeding maiden up"

[dreameroftheday]

thebeat945 ever heard of the German thrash scene? Bands such as Sodom, Kreator, Tankard, Destruction? Fucking idiot...

[thebeat945]

You Greek douchebags don't like Americans then don't buy American metal records. Simple. We'll keep "Reign in Blood" and you can have "Seventh Son of a Seventh Son".

[arxidiancl]

Dont export them then but fact is money makes the world go round.Fucking bitch calling me a douchebag how old r u like twelve? Go listen to eminem you faggot

[bubasch]

...and all of this is a bit of a petty since you do post some kick-ass Slayer videos that I hadn´t seen. Loosen up shit man!!

[bubasch]

...and all of this is a bit of a petty since you do post some kick-ass videos of old Slayer stuff that I hadn´t seen. Loosen up, shit man!!

[bubasch]

Well Mr. Evilaggression, if you write such an "addendum" you pretty much set the standards don´t you?! Quite an invitation no?! "Specializes in blind hate" you truly have the picture, rrright! Americans are a paranoid breed, and you do make your own bed!

[arxidiancl]

so dont talk about inventions beacause when greece discovered all of these america wasnt exised and you where sleeping in caves and you hanging from trees

[evilaggression]

I hate to break the news to you, but Americans weren't 'sleeping in caves' or 'hanging from trees.' Most were living in Europe. I've decided to make you the Greek Ambassador of my web channel. Until someone from Greece comes along and objects to your behavior, I'll have to assume your way of thinking is what passes for rational thought in that part of the world.

[arxidiancl]

Rational thought? Thats rich coming from someone who doesnt object about his country's crimes. Not ancient times modern times crimes(vietnam,iraq,serbia,etc­). Greeks are like that we do not appreciate someone who knows nothing about greece to have an opinion on what we are. I on the other hand have lots and lots to say about the usa. though i do respect the musicians (slayer) and some of the advances given to the world im happy u acknowledge that there is no american per say u r all refugees.

[evilaggression]

I would be more optimistic about the hospitality I would receive in Iraq, Vietnam, and Serbia than I would in Greece.

[arxidiancl]

well mister evilaggresion i fuck your mom your dad and your sister and i hope your family die very soon from cancer

[evilaggression]

Please feel free to keep displaying your intellect.

[arxidiancl]

fuck new york and the states come in greece and you will see what is a fight you fight with guns so you are fucking pussies and the funs there you are only kids the real hard funs are in europe just listen to hip hop and rnb you are so american

[evilaggression]

Sometimes I wonder why Greece has never produced any bands or significant inventions. If your commentary is typical of conventional Greek thought then its no wonder.

[arxidiancl]

first off bands like rotting christ, nightfall are famous in europe for this kind of music. We do not have eminem or fuckin aguilera and shit. Inventions? Like democracy, maths, philosophy or the fact that in NASA there are many greeks. Concerning slayer when they played here the whole gig was a mosh pit in and out the building. Get your facts straight, u know nothing about greece i know a lot about the us. YOU FUCKIN REDNECK

[givewingstomytriumph]

YOU GUYS ARE TOUGH RIGHT THIS IS NEW YORK? AND WHEN YOU GUYS START A FIGHT YOU FIGHT TIL DEATH!!!!!!!!!!! im from New York and what tom said just says it all! THANK YOU FOR POSTING THIS EVILAGGRESSION SLAYER FOREVER!!!! :)

[slayerule]

oh no they screwed up the drumming I think

[Sa7sH]

yea they deffinetly fucked the drums... they dont play this song enough live... and maybe thats why lol

[Akilumpx]

Classic.

I'll be the first to admit, slayer post 94 hasnt been the same, very average and in places even below that.. but no one can take awya the early years...

and yes, divine intervention is a slayer classic!
