OH-and S.A. Slayer actually headlined the Slayer/Slayer gig! How cool to see L.A. Slayer open up for S.A. Slayer! You metalheads who weren't even born when this band was blessing the incredible Texas metal scene, give Slayer a careful listen! Open your ears and listen carefully to a heavy, powerful band with unparalleled instrumental ability for the early 80s. Even today this Slayer would be unique, complex, and somewhat ahead of their time. Man, Slayer, wow! This is making me smile!

@jesusisbetter Yeah S.A. Slayer kicked L.A. Slayer's ass at the Battle of the Slayers concert! I have the bootleg recording of that entire show, too!

My father also recorded this E.P. along with the Go for the Throat album off a clean vinyl copy of the record and digitally took out all the noise and stuff. It sounds fantastic. Much better than any bootleg CD version of the albums that are out.

I shot the photo you see above, for BOSS Bobby O'Neill Sound Studios. Original design by Mike Taylor. Cool to see it after all these years! It was fun to shoot a ram's skull vomiting "blood" out of its nasal cavities!

is it only me. But it sounds like a bit of the riff is a Dio RIPOFF from holy diver

The riff between 0:32-0:35 became very popular Later on. It was borrowed by Metallica("Trapped Under Ice") and King Diamond("No Presents for Christmas").

@jesusisbetter actually, SA Slayer opened the show if your talking about the Villa Fontana show! I specifically remember because I believe it was Van Stavern that actually put his guitar out for the fans to play. Then they tried that with Tom Araya and he got pissed. I wouldn't put my money on that as fact, but I believe SA Slayer opened.
