@lurcharoni still have no peers musically.



[Xeper1979]

@apollyon1138 you mean as in no bands who could rival their sound

[apollyon1138]

@Xeper1979 Yeah, sugar-coated way of putting it.

[Xeper1979]

@apollyon1138 I guess

[FrenziedMadness25]

[SaltOrion]

What a track. 

[killldaNWO]

obama loves this

[aldrichp]

It took Tom a little while before he became a crowd general. You will have to excuse some of these early 80's live concerts.

[gerryisnotfunny]

i think foo fighters rock harder than this.

[zlickDude]

@gerryisnotfunny lol i kinda thought so too. you just need to kinda let this corrode into your brain and enjoy the music. foo fighters are good! :D

[ZOMBIEGORE1000]

[steveglf]

My fave all time slayer vid,it's just awesome,i remember slam diving off my mums sofa with my mates when i first saw this,i was about 14. Absolute classic!!! (-:

[thorgal70]

Dave's double bass drum play kills !

[messier42kr]

10 stupid christians, 666 is the magic number, i think 119,910 liked this song.

[7CHP]

666 like this song, probably just a coincidence, no?

[furydeath]

Darn only the 662 person to like it.

[LyricsArFun]

Im 13 and was at a McDonalds when I saw a 20 year old with a Slayer Tshirt on. I casually walked up to him, asked him if hed seen Slayer live and what his favourite song was. He politely replied and then game me a handshake. He could have been a mass-murderer or pyromaniac but I had the trust to walk up to a stranger becase of our musical tastes. Get along with fellow metalheads!

[NikkiNecrophiliac666]

@LyricsArFun Were you ordering a Happy Meal when you seen him?

[GrzesiekPL666]

Some people say Slayer members sold their souls to Satan. More true is that Satan sold his soul to Slayer members. In fact, you can't tell he sold it becouse he gave it for free

[Gyftomancer]

@GrzesiekPL666 Not true. Chuck Norris was behind the deal. Both sold them to Him.

[666thrashmaster]

its funny to think the the dudes from venom are younger then slayer and metallica and by venom i mean the original line up

[jrmineur]

Wow these gize could be better than spinal tap someday...

[paullus420666]

IF YOU ARE WONDERING WHATS ON KERRY'S GUITAR.... ITS SATANS SHIT AFTER HE SHOVED RIGHT UP HIS ASS BEFORE RECORDING THIS ALBUM

[paullus420666]

MY SPEAKERS DONT GO TO 11 ...... FUCK !!!



[redneck6310]

Studio 54? wasnt that a gaybar?

[juden187]

who knew something like this could come out of hunington beach

\mm/

[strangersound]

@juden187 That's just where the ship landed. ;)

[Tamtenyo]

3:01 - 3:07, every 5secs are good for headbanging!

[holmer666]

@MetalMosher6693 No you don't. That would make you old like me! ha ha

[holmer666]

When I was 13 I was into punk rock. Then I heard this...

[Madgod74]

Dave with a D.R.I shirt? great one :D

[TheMetalheadfromhell]

Slayeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeer!!!!!!­!!!

[zodiackiller12]

[ThrashMasterBasser]

[ed4409]

Before Raining Blood...Hell Awaits WAS their heaviest song!

[therealtubehead1]

@ed4409.

Before Reign in Blood, Hell Awaits was their heaviest album! :D

[Ahelphand]

when i first heard this song when i was around 16 my interpretation for the lyrics was the following: Bladibugidabugidi power of the law degaudigidibagidigi to get the one called lord bladigibidaubigidi dying by the sword bladugibidaugidi to see!!! bladugibidagidi for me!!! bladugidiba away!!!! bladigibidau cannot be saved HELL AWAITS!!!! lol

[wildhoney777]

LOMBARDO with D.R.I. tshirt... awesome!!!!!!!!

[djtintle]

[03758159]

[ladyroxie74]

Slaaaaaaaaaaaaayeeeeeeeeeeeeee­eeeeeeeeeeeerrrrrrrrrrrr!!!!!!­!!!

[mauriciosolano]

dave lombardo= god of drums

[djs909]

It was 1986. I was watching Monsters of Rock on tv. You had Iron Maiden. You had Twisted Sister. You had Accept (hate the fuckers). You had Anthrax. And then Slayer came. This track. I was sitting there, wide eyed. Couldn't believe all this sonic violence. But my brain exploded and my ears were melting and I was loving it. 24 years later, last year, I saw them live in Milwaukee. And yes, they are Slayer. Never heard a more fitting name for a band.

[strikerjess]

@djs909 lucky dude

[Waserum1]

@djs909 stfu

[paullus420666]

@djs909 i believe its pronounced FUCKING SLAYER !!!!!!!!!!!!!

[fsadkfhdsj]

@djs909 FINALLY someone who hates the fuckers too, accept SUCKS DICK AND SOUNDS LIKE SHIT

[wildbucky]

@fsadkfhdsj they shouldnt even be famous. not only do they suck but they are fueling a stereotype.

[ajpiesano]

@fsadkfhdsj Quite simply FUCK YOU!! Slayer will kill any poser band out there, fuck the corpses, bury them in an unmarked grave & piss all over it. There's never been, nor will there ever be, a heavier, faster, louder band than SLAYER. WTF are you watching for then? Oh yeah, just to be a hater, and to hear the fucking KINGS of heavy metal. You can't handle the intensity is all. Come back when you it sinks the fuck in your head & you will realize!!

[fsadkfhdsj]

@ajpiesano Slayer rules man what u bitching about? King is a poser he knows it... still rocks tho

[hjejmnse1]

@fsadkfhdsj How's he a poser? ....

[fsadkfhdsj]

@hjejmnse1 He is and he knows he is, just ask Dave Mustaine

[hjejmnse1]

@fsadkfhdsj ....Dave Mustaine wrote satanic songs and now is a christian he has no room to speak....

[JNathanK2011]

@hjejmnse1 His vocals are so shot now too. I saw Megadeth at this years Mayhem Festival, and the instrumentals were great, but i couldn't stand his voice.

[hjejmnse1]

@JNathanK2011 Now he growls instead of singing. I saw him last year at American Carnage, slayer blew them away

[altarman]

@djs909

same experience but why hate accept?

[djs909]

@altarman because they're a bunch of posers. Especially big nose udo.

[JRchucknorris23]

@djs909 Why do you hate Maiden and Accept?

[panujarvinen1]

guess 9 people think heaven awaits them. in your dreams motherfuckers

[HerveGamerDude]

slayer live in 54? this is definetly ahead of it's time

[xytsdx2]

@HerveGamerDude You're not funny, and this is from 1985, title clearly says it.

[HerveGamerDude]

@xytsdx2 i kno but the description says 54

unless the studio is the 54th one 

[frobinhood]

question for slayer fans - if you were Kerry would you of gone to Slayer or stayed with Megadeth?

[MrKillerj24]

@frobinhood he was with slayer 1st he just played 5 shows with megadeth to spread the name of slayer...thats what he said in an interview.

[frobinhood]

@MrKillerj24

actually he was in Megadeth 1st (sort of). but what i mean is like if you had the choice would you stay in slayer or go to megadeth???

Man imagen what Megadeth would be like now if Kerry was in it.....thats 1 badass thought lol

[kidpein]

@frobinhood /watch?v=Ir_xcBD3hoY

watch the whole thing this is where i got it from.

[frobinhood]

@kidpein

Very intresting but if you listen to it the thing of him promoting slayer is just an added bonus - he states he helped Dave because he admired him.

[littlehonda69]

this is pure genius

[superguitarshredda]

HELL AWAITS IS THIER BEST ALBUM!

[wolf4241991]

Hell Awaits, and Show no Mercy are their best.

[UTGoat666]

Fuckin A, brothers! Slayer's gonna be here in Calgary July 30th. Hell yeah, I've waited years for this. \m/

[MrGonza666]

[cmc47834]

love how the camera just goes back nd forth between kerry picking lol

[eon14873]

first time I saw this vid was on uk rock late night programme "the power hour" in 1988. didnt know what to make of it. never heard such an unholy racket before. something compelled me to watch the video again and again. unholy forces lead me to penny lane records in liverpool. there i was with hell awaits on vinyl. on the bus home I read all the lyrics and the thanks list. the blasphemous lyrics spoke to me. got home and put the record on and that was it. never looked back. their best album!!

[manifestgtr]

hell awaits is definitely my favorite slayer album...it's like when sepultura put out arise...still kind of early but more exploratory and progressive than the stuff before it

[eon14873]

@manifestgtr yeah i prefer beneath the remains though

[alexma321]

Sepultura is better

[MYAR15SaysImFree]

@alexma321 no way dude. especially not recent sepultura. I mean dont get me wrong, I love sepultura too, but SLAYER is king

[mattkingcool]

Hell Awaits for Osama bin Laden... that mother fucker!

[mattkingcool]

Hell Awaits for Osama bin Laden... that mother fucker!

[slash92able]

Hell doesn't await anymore for osama.........

[pablotepa13]

[AldebaranProspekt]

[arriandela]

There are nine people I see here that go to You Tube that have no taste in music and totally suck ass!!!

[xDXPxJOEx456x1]

[metalordamageinc]

chvcbwcewncjsncnnueosqpwskzqos­Slayerrules!wbsjuss2swnjxwkn

SLAYEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA­ARRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHH­H!!

[SLAYTANICWERMACHT77]

Jeff is the man the true creative force behind Slayer

[anorexianervosa75]

I was 10 years old and my grandfather just got cable tv. Man when this video came on I sold my soul and been serving ever since...

[DRCRUE1313]

tom looks like a 16 year old!

[MoshersRage]

i wish i could go back to when Hell Awaits was a new album...

[frightmarefan89]

@MoshersRage hahah i said the same thing yrs ago. this is them in their prime..still a great band..but i mean 85..that was a great yr i bet.

[bigdadyesteban]

Ohhh they look so kids... My favorite song and my favorite band!!! there's nothing better!!!!

[Skorrrpion]

[BrianSATX79]

26 years later this is still fucking vicious!

[kingosprites]

I love how Tom's like, "Have you learned the words to our songs?" and then he misplaces the 2nd and 3rd verse's 1st line, XD

[MrDodstink]

Slayer keeps the black flame fuckin´burning!

[Ezza1974]

Does anyone know why Venoms performance never made the video ????????????? only the interviews backstage????????

[frightmarefan89]

@Ezza1974 i seen this video last friday at my homies house...and venom was on there..they had 2 tracks..i believe countless bathory and witching hour..i could be wrong on the tracks..but im 100% sure they had 2 tracks on there. Exodus killed it on that video..good ol trash days

[Ezza1974]

@frightmarefan89 I'v seen the video also (when it 1st came out in 85) your right those 2 songs are on there, BUT there not live preformances from studio 54.....Witching hour was a promo video clip and countless bathory is taken from the 7th Date of hell live at hammersmith odeon video which was recorded back in 84.

[MWFrontier]

Studio 54? Great way to break that disco crap trend

[pio29]

where did they practice before i d like to know their past because they are young they cant be good by themself could somebody tell me ??

[ruslanismaylov]
