A Slayer a Day

The treats never stop coming at Band Chat, and for the next few weeks you're about to imbibe the hard stuff. Welcome to A Slayer a Day, where we will all be indoctrinated in the ways of one of the Lords of Heavy Metal - Slayer.

In honor of Slayer's (hopefully) imminent new release, my aim is to discuss every main (studio recorded) item in their discography:

• Show No Mercy
  
• Haunting the Chapel
  
• Hell Awaits
  
• Reign In Blood
  
• South of Heaven
  
• Seasons In the Abyss
  
• Divine Intervention
  
• Undisputed Attitude
  
• Diabolus In Musica
  
• God Hates Us All

Each album will be listened to in its entirety at least once before my thoughts on it are published. Ideally I'd like to post about an album every day, but let's be realistic here. Suffice it to say I will at least be listening to Slayer every day to prepare for each write-up.

So I call on each of you to raise your Goblet of Rock in toast to the only band insane enough to consider penning a song about 9-11 from the terrorists' point of view (and would we really want it any other way?).
