Slayer - Rare Hell Awaits Rehearsal Audio 84

This one's a bit different, but some folks might like it. I usually don't post raw audio, but this is rare enough to justify it. I can't confirm the authenticity of this tape because I didn't personally record it, but I'm sure you'll agree after hearing it that the voice can be none other than Tom Araya's, and that the Guitar is none other than Kerry King.

This tape was given to me by a friend from Long Island in 1985. He worked with Slayer on the 'Live Undead' album and he had quite a bit of slayer stuff at his house, including pics of him hanging out with Kerry. He said the 'Live Undead' album was nothing of the sort... it was just a studio album with about ten people (including him), being made to sound like an audience.

Its my estimation that this is a tape of Kerry, Tom, and Dave rehearsing the songs "Praise of Death," and "Necrophiliac" in 1984. While bands like Slayer do often make jam tapes of stuff their working on, its very rare that they are as clear and complete as this one. Its quite a trip that I managed to get it, preserve it all these years, and post it here. I seriously doubt this has been published anywhere, and I'm positive that its extremely rare.
