@kawa12rrr I really have to make a comment to another retard, who has NO CLUE of what good metal is? Or in this case metal muscians... You clearly never heard any of Absu's tracks. Go check them out, and die slowly afterwards, thanks....
@Cropsykills I think the greatest drummer ever was the caveman who beat a thigh bone on a skull one day and invented drumming....but after that, definately Proscriptor :)
@msiqct I believe I read once (though I could be wrong) that Kerry's opinion was, "he's good, but too $&#**^% weird." Also, I could be wrong again, but I think it wasn't long after this that Dave rejoined Slayer.
I find it really amusing how everyone are saying Proscriptor is too good for Slayer..Well i mean Slayer are legends ..Do we say Slayer are too good for Iron Maiden coz they are fast and heavier than Iron maiden ..no coz Iron Maiden are legends and they influenced Slayer....I think metal is not that famous nowadays and screamo and pop shit are gaining popularity because some fucking posers in the internet love to bash other bands without knowing what they are talking about..
I like ABSU guy, particularly because of Pilars of Mercy, but this is weak... My drummer can do better than this. Check the vids.... You can tell he mad nervous... Droppin sticks everywhere n shit. Smh... Enjoy it my man! Have fun with it... A chance to jam wit Kerry King!! Fuck Nervous... Jus Play
@sargeist999 Actually I'm not I haven't liked anything of their's after RIB. I just tried to make the point that you can not "Kill It" if you "Play it Wrong." You do agree he fucked up the easiest part of it don't you? I made a "How to Play Slayer's hit single 'Hell Awaits' for Dummies" video, did you not watch it?
Slayer sucks, Absu rules, Proscriptor is God, Lombardo is shit (he even fucks up his own song Hell Awaits, what a loser)
he didnt get picked because hes a musician with interests and ideas that are above slayer aka kerry kings head...slayer is a huge commercial band that didnt want someone elses creativity..theyre comfortable with making the music they do. kerry king is on nu metals nuts,he thinks slipknot is godlike,he thinks god hates us all is a masterpiece..hes not gonna want someone with creative ideas like proscriptor,hed rather stay in his bullshit zone of what he thinks is great music..slayer sucks now
BS you guys are full of shit. Kills it? Proscriptor fucked up the whole intro from 0:40 on. FAIL. who the fuck told him its: snare (2 sticks), tom (2 sticks), repeat w/ double bass the whole time? what a fucking tard. go watch slayer hell awaits 1985 w/ the master Dave [v=F29aFb0CuyU] - then come back and tell me if he 'killed it', Proscriptor was too busy thinking about new logos for his bass drums to learn the song right.
@TheWitchOvAgnesi Kerry/Tom/Jeff may well be old men, but are you saying that Dave Lombardo is an old man? That Proscriptor makes Dave look bad? Dude that line has been tried in the past and has always been shown to be pure arrogance. I don't think Proscriptor will ever be here saying something like that. Dudes nowadays always look good on a song or two but after two hours of playing non-stop, when time comes for the AOD double bass fill they fall flat on their big fucking mouths...
@hrgiger6 Yeah, the only thing is he CAN play at that level for hours. Ever seen Absu live? If you had you wouldn't question it.
Lombardo is who Lombardo is. A seminal musician with a knack for finding the right drum parts to fit a song. He's not bad (did I ever say that? No I didn't). He's a legend, but he's also no technician.
This guy can certainly fill his shoes and obviously did so with no problem. Timing was tight, levels were consistent, etc.
@TheWitchOvAgnesi I agree Proscriptor smokes, no doubt about it, I just meant to say that he did not play the beginning of this song correctly. No matter how bad ass you are if you play it wrong you cannot have "killed it."
It's cool to have your opinion but keep the name calling out of it! The dude is a friend and I can tell you he was nervous as this was a fucking opportunity of a lifetime for him to play for a band that has had influence in his career. Russ is a better drummer than Lombardo although you would never hear him say that. Lombardo couldn't touch any or Russ's ORIGINAL work he isn't fast enough.
I heard he didn't get picked cause the whole audition process was a scam to make Dave Lombardo jealous and return. Oldschool Slayer was the shit. Proscriptor would have made them evil again...aka "good"...haha
