  • SHOW NO MERCY is the supreme thrash metal album and it is unbeatable. Die by the Sword is the greatest Slayer song and everyone who raves about how RiB is the best Slayer album can suck a dick.

  • Damn, can you imagine how old the people in this crow are nowadays,? to tell their story of how much they used to swing their heads hard bak in the day lol.

  • I totally agree, they played here a couple of weeks ago, and it was sad when all those assholes started arguing that bloodline was the best song of the night...

  • Hell Awaits and Haunting are the fucking best

  • I bought a bootleg fifteen yrs ago called CAPTORS OF SIN and it includes Poperinge gig(I didn´t know it was Heavy Sound Festival) and other gig. Old black spirit is brought and only SLAYER KEEPS THE BLACK FLAME BURNING!

  • You all are right on point! Show No Mercy is an EXCELLENT record. And so is Hell Awaits and Haunting the Chapel. Why is it people only stick with what is considered "essential" such as Reign in Blood; good album, yes, but the best? Haha, I think not. All the kiddies know modern Slayer and then Reign in Blood...sickening, yes.

  • @ForbiddenReality27 i agree early slayer is the best slayer and mean metal blade early

  • EVIL!!!!!!!! Old Slayer Rules!!!!

  • shit, this kicks ass.

  • I agree with the opening text.

  • my favorite cd is show no mercy from slayer

  • EVIL!!!! nothing can beat 80's metal and fuck those posers who only know raining blood

  • violentscimitar u are fucking awesome, someone who actually realizes how great early Slayer was

  • i live in Poperinge, why there isn't such festival now, goddamn, bands like slayer, metallica, motörhead played here :o

  • looks like mullets were rampant in belgium in 85 haha

  • I was there! Pressed against the front fence with a self-made "Slayer Has No Boundaries" banner made out of an old bed sheet :-)). It's great to see King and Hanneman at half their current size, the 7" spikes and the chains, the synchronized banging,... Does make me feel like an old fart, tho.

  • totally agree with the intro

  • I like the violent sound of Hell Awaits (my first Slayer album) but Show No Mercy becomes a Living Thing that haunts my house every time I play it...

  • FUCK OFF PUSSY!

    SHOW NO MERCY IS ONE OF THE BEST THRASH ALBUMS OF ALL TIME!

    FAGGOT!

  • slayer need to dolike metallica and make dvd with rare eighties performances and interviews. that would be very special

  • This is Slayer at the height of their power! Thanks for this!

  • Show No Mercy - this is the best Slayer album, absolutely no doubt about it.

  • To be honest I don't like much Slayer past their first album. Show No Mercy is an epic record though. Evil, Die By the Sword, Black Magic...

  • Show no mercy = best slayer album!!! \m/

    but that's just me...right?

  • Jeff goes fuckin nuts on stage!!

  • Best, and most based on facts-intro to a youtube vid EVER

  • dont worry dude... i couldnt agree more with the title at the begining

  • yes, you're right!

    my favorits are aggressive perfector and captor of sin!

    SLAYER ÜBER ALLES!!!

  • Rain in blood who everyone for some stupid reason considers their best album is just a stripped down light version of SNM. This is their best album ever. Its got long songs, great breakdowns, evil chain saw guitar riffs, rythmic metal drum beats, and echoing on key vocals. Bring back old slayer dammit, wake up slayer this is the style you need to be at

  • Tom Araya still had voice here..

  • "SHOW NO MERCY" RULES!!!

  • The Metal Blade albums were the best that Slayer ever did.

  • Fukk yeah!! All of these modern so called "Slayer" fans are a bunch of fakes. "Show No Mercy" is Slayer's greatest fukking album. "Crionics" is the best and most underrated Slayer song in my opinion.

  • Evil has no boundaries, Black Magic, Night rider, all awesome songs :D

  • I sould my Soul to Slayer at THIS Concert.

    Mille from Kreator wasen´t there.

    I talked with him about this - and he had to play

    somewere....Greetings to all the Old True Metalheads that saw the Show in Belgium.

    Bye - Toto.

  • Hail Slaytanic Soldiers !

    (best album !!!)

  • Totally fucking awesome! Evil Has No Boundaries is one of the best songs and one of my favorites by Slayer!

  • I got into Slayeer when I was 15 in 2002. I'm 22 now and they are still my favorite thrash band! Evil Has No Boundaries is one of their best songs!

  • Hell Awaits is the best. Show No Mercy is awesome also. But you can't deny Reign in Blood is a fantastic album as well.

  • I feel that I am wicked enough, but I do not feel that I am nasty enough.

  • Love the opening text

  • I sold my soul to Slayer back in 88'

  • they just fuckung rule!

  • show no mercy is the best slayer album. and if you dont realize it jump of a fuckin bridge. TRUE THRASH

  • two words buddy...HELL AWAITS

  • God they rule. Long live heavy metal and Slayer. And yeah I agree with jiminey6969.They associate themselves with bands that are absolute garbage. It either serves to make them look awesome and the other bands like shit, or they do it because they feel bad. I think it's the former.

  • I was there at Heavy sound festival poperinge (Belgium) back in '85. I was 17 years old. It was the first Slayer gig outside the USA. Crazy show!!!

  • show no mercy is a joy

  • i think slayers best album is hell awaits.

  • It was the best, my favorite is Hell Awaits followed closely by SNM. But I still really like Reign In Blood, South Of Heaven, Seasons In The Abyss and Divine Intervention. Past that they havent been that great.

  • hey, i´m 16 and come on, even I know show no mercy has the best riffs, and solos ever done on heavy metal industry...

  • 2:50 Owns anything except necrophiliac!!!

  • lol with the bc rich guitars and the slim pants and everything^^ 80's kickass

  • Ich selbst war 1985 in Poperinge dabei und SLAYER war das geilste Metalkonzert das ich bis dahin gesehen habe.....

    LONG LIVE HEAVY METAL !!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Do you remember me Quasi Modo from Velbert ??

    Nix für ungut und Gruß an Altöl!

    Thomas(the Muschel)aus Giessen

  • Du seile Gau!!! Glückwunsch! Hab leider nur ein bootleg aus Poperinge! Slayer fucking rule!

  • Hanneman totally shreds on that solo!...incredible.

  • if only slayer took good bands like kreator or sodom on tour instead of pieces of shit like slipknot and trivium...

  • Show no mercy is Slayer's best album

  • i totally agree!

  • Great fucking song of a great fucking album!

  • I used to have a double vinyl boot of 1985 rehearsals and a side of Live Undead stuff, and it was obviously the tracks from the official record but there were vocals missing. The audience was a bunch of radio contest winners, who knows if they added extra crowd noise.

  • Wow, never seen this show before. When was the last time you saw Hanneman get on the mic, too? "Beware Europe we are going to steal your souls!!"

  • so cool...my favourite album of Slayer is Show no Mercy...i'd like to see more videos from this gig

  • I agree. Slayer's early stuff was the best. My favorite album is Hell Awaits.

  • your slayer live videos have nice intro texts heh

  • A photographer on stage,aaaaaaah,the good old days...

    This is the fuckin' best man!Tom=best sound ever!

  • It is claimed that some of the songs on Live Undead were recorded in studio ond then played crowd noise to it...is that true? I mean I can't believe that.

  • I can't wait for Time Travel Im going back in time to see all the fucking Slayer Shows!

  • Mike Browning can probably help you with the time machine.

  • thrash metal or go fuck yourself

  • The Best way to open an album Black Magic Die by the Sword Anti-Christ Show no Mercy I love this album to death speaking of Death Screaming Bloody Gore!!!!!!

  • One of my favorite songs by them, right before the Antichrist and Show no Mercy.

  • So the other night in town I was wearing my Slayer tshirt, trashed, and a couple of shit-nerds (term courtesy of Johnny R) complemented me on it and I realised that most people these days who like it are like that

  • "Sadly since most post-'80s Slayer fans are silly rednecks, they probably won't be able to read it."

    You and I are officially best friends now.

  • i think the old slayer is faster than everthing else...the speed in the songs in the 80's (when they play live) are soo fast...i thing no one can beat this..

  • This is Slayer!

  • hevi metál csénszó

  • i agree to the opening text. i really liked Show No Mercy and Hell Awaits. Reign In Blood got boring and too overplayed (my opinion). the first two albums were the best from these guys!

  • 80's metal is the best metal, the first albums of metallica (awsome), slayer(awsome), iron maiden(still awsome :P) and many more.

  • show no mercy = best slayer

  • I would say Haunting The Chapel and Live Undead are also worth mentioning.

  • In the 80`s we`d killed for such videos of Slayer!

    Meanwhile I listen to 100 other music style too, but the 80`s energy of Slyaer is still amazing!

    Nice to see!

    Twang cheers!

  • Haunting the Chapel <3!!!!

    FUCKING SLAYERRR!!!

  • Pure gold man, thanks for uploading this

  • Its so fucking true Slayer's metalblade releases were flawless. Reign in Blood is way over hyped.

  • Show No Mercy is the best album!!!

  • I really like the description of the vid...and I totally agree with it.

    Good vid overall...even though Tom seems to have a problem with his bass in the begining

  • Evil will take your soul!!!!!

  • Crazy how back then the only people that listened to slayer were the hard core. Man i was so young listing to thrash metal, but what were you gonna do? listen to those sissy hairbands?

  • christ illusion is shit

    SHOW NO MERCY fucking rulez!!!!!!!!!

  • damn. way faster than the album version. i wish they played it this way on show no mercy.

  • wow. that's ancient.

  • Reign in Blood was a fucking sick album, But overall Show no Mercy was slayers best stuff.

  • This is real fucking SLAYER!!!!!! 1985 was a great year for METAL

  • My friend was one the festival in 1985,he was 15 years old,i remember the day i was to young for the festival(12 year) we are still SLAYER freaks

  • I'm born in 1990.

    I life just 30km (45 miles) in the north/east of POPERINGE (the little village in Flanders fields)

    1985 was the last year, the festival doesn't excist any more.

    I'm very sad that I wasn't born that time...

  • Tom has always been a loyal Christian/Catholic. The band did this in order to get attention. No one had ever done it and it was their way to success. Early days they would go 4 different directions when they finished a gig. Most of the songs are written by Hanneman anyways.

  • i don't how anyone from this band can have such a bizarre turnaround and accept christianity. especially with the showing at the beginning

  • Satan, our master of evil mayhem... :-)

  • Those were the days of Slayes, now its some poppy Christ illusion shit.

  • FUCK REIGN IN BLOOD! Show no mercy and hell awaits are the best! new slayer sure sells out but It sounds nothing like real metal to me anymore!

  • Hell Awaits pwns Reign in Blood!

  • The albums before Hell Awaits are pretty cool, but Reign in Blood was damn good and some of South of Heaven was pretty good too. After that though, you are right, because only fools and faggots like the new Slayer past South of Heaven.

  • i agree. metal died with the eighties, long live metal.

  • Violent, I totally agree with you. Even though the albums before hell awaits have poor production (not that i care of)they are the best IMO.

    Thank you so much for uploading this video, i absolutely love looking at Slayer's 83-85 shows!

  • This was the first Slayer tune I ever heard....Love at first listen

  • this is the first slayer gig in europe ever!!i think it was tge 23.5.1985!!!fucking awesome!!!!

  • I believe it's the same thing for many other metal bands of that decade: early Anthrax, early Metallica, and especially early Sepultura (morbid visions, bestial devastation, schizophrenia)

  • This I WORSHIP!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Well! I'm 40 now...But i was in the crowd, this day in Poperinge. I still got my ticket! And man, the Slayer's show, in the end of the afternoon...What a blast!!!

    Peace & Respect to everybody:-)

  • I'm 42 to now and was there in the front:)

    man this is soooo cool.

  • yea people that like god hates us all and seasons over show no mercy are fuckin dumb

  • nickatniteanday1: You're fucking right man. Show No Mercy is Slayer at it's finest.

  • The opening is oh so true, everybody says "Oh my god, it's Reign in Blood" no, Hell Awaits rules, ( I love 7/7 songs on it, I like 4 on RIB) and, the new stuff is good, but shit compared to oldness, especially vocals...poor, poor, Tommy boy

  • Hey violent-the opening text is so very true-I am a 38 year old headbanger and I always thought Hell Awaits and all albums before were their best-glad to see a lot of people agree with that.

  • that coment in the beginning rules that is fucking true the new shit is shit compared to anything back in the old days

  • ARE YOU EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEVIL???? Ahhh, Slayer at it's finest!!

  • THIS IS THE REAL SLAYER.PERIOD.

  • Kerry King with Hair, Araya with childs loud voicy... I also listen more until Dave Lombard left (sacked) on 1992, here there is even the old vocals of Tom, thanks for posting this Bijou!!!

  • so very true. there is no slayer like show no fucking mercy slayer.

  • MANNNNNNNN

    If u compare the new slayer with the old one , new one is nothing even though they have the same line up.

  • It's too bad Slayer used the downtuned Evil Has No Boundaries to write Angel Of Death and War Enesmble. The three albums after Hell Awaits were pretty good, but I agree that Hell Awaits is the best one.

  • Hell yeah!

    Fuck off nowadays christian slayer, they should die!

  • SLAYER!!! SHOW NO FUCKING MERCY!!!

  • From Show No Mercy, Slayer's best album!!! \m/ \m/

  • this is totally awesome footage. i remember an interview for this in the metal hammer mag in 1984 or so. that brought my attention to slayer. from then on was a fan.

  • "Blasting our way through the boundaries of hell no one can stop us tonight" goddam i love the first line what a good way to start a damn good thrash album. Show no Mercy

  • fuckin rad!!! this is slayer in thier prime.

  • Hell yeah!! it's their legendary Poperinge concert from belgium . . the next day it was frontpage news cuz some real die-hard Slayer fans and bikergangs robbing the dead from the grave and chained the corpses to their bikes and drove them all around town . . Necrophiliacs!!! i guess you'll know who got blamed . . anyway if you got more footage of the Poperinge show please post it that would be Fuckin' awesome!!

  • ^holy shit, i remember hearing about that a while ago but i didn't know it happened to that extent, fuck!

  • show no fuckin mercy.
