i do agree i hate slayer but kerry king is an awesome guitarist i just hate how slayer and all thier music is santanic just because it offends people thier fake as hell but they are all great musicians and hells yeah THIN LIZZY
@fuckmaster665 Thanks for highly intelligible and well written response, are there any other words of wisdom you wish to bestow upon us mere humans?
Look, if all you can say about the solos is "they suck" and then call me a faggot (which is totally uncalled for) it clearly means you either didn't listen to the aforementioned solos, or you paid no attention to them and wished only to insult Slayer.
@fuckmaster665 Don't be an ignorant bastard, just because you don't like Slayer doesn't mean they're not talented or musically relevant. Open your mind you may like what you once hated. Music is music and theres no set pattern for liking certain bands. Just because you like Lizzy doesn't mean you have to hate Slayer.
Got to stand 30 feet from them in 1982 near Frankfurt, West Germany. I had many a Pilsner and the music was Good and LOUD! Still got the ticket in a photo album.
boss song of all time evil sounding bass and guitar lines sounds cool tho and when philip does that voice and it's destorted towards the end is scarey stuff but still sounds dam good word of adviece folks dont lisen to this when your stoned.
great one :) initially I thought that Thin Lizzy covering Slayer would be too absurd, but it seems that a great song can share its title with another great song :)
thats how it should be played..not some idiots banging a bass string as fast as he can ..no quality. guitar solos with no construction . its like look ho w fast i can play.. no subtlety . gary moore can play a fast solo with melody . i know he wasnt on this track but listen to songs like military man .run for cover.or listen to his ballads ..the loner . still got the blues or the live version of empty rooms.. melodic genius
my dads a lucky bastard, he was born in 62 so he got to grow up listening to and getting to see thin lizzy, budgie, maiden, priest..and i get lil wayne , Britney spears and JLO lol WTF
@JoeyCage well if you are interested in non commercial music you can find rock/metal bands that are awesome besides im 18 and i was able to see metallica :D
I've heard a few covers of this song and to be honest.....they'r all crap!! I have..,in my opinion the best on 12" single.....yes you heard me..12" single,live at hammersmith odion and to get a lizzy live performance as hot as it I'd have to travel back in time to the rainbow arena........you know the rest.
i dont know anything about this band...i saw the picture of the guys with long hair and guitars, so it seemed conceivable to me that they were doing a slayer cover...whats wrong with that?
this is a cool number love this one I was called the angel of death in my ex rock band what I was in that is my nick name in liverpool or merseyside when I do rock gigs but I do have to say the solos in this song are fucking brilliant and defenately kick arase and philips voice after the solo is quite scarey freeked me out once when I was stoned ha ha ha ha ha ha anyhow there you go R.I.P philip your devoted fan stephen the angel of death from merseyside england BSc.
@h1r43th4l1v3 dude all im sayin is i didnt diss your band i said that they were kinda good,but that i thought my band was better,so get over it,and yes i have my immature moments,but so does everybody,and yea actually i am,bcuz i have basically went on tour as a comedian,so yea...
@DEATHARMY101 ok, but don't think i dont like metal , i (m even more into metal then this , but i just dont like the commercial bands like avenged sevenfold
wen i 1st herd this, i thought the beginning would reely freek u out if u wer stoned, and then tha guitar solo would make u jump on tha table and rock out if u wer drunk, lol
vader a death metal band did a cover of this and its a really good cover.......well if you like death metal anyway, it just goes to show what an influence thin lizzy have on metal bands, they make proud to be irish
