[quote:91477]Acutally until "South of Heaven" slayer was more speed metal orientated, and after "South of Heaven" They realiezed no one wanted to listen to 4 guys play as fast as they can so they slowed it down. And Have you ever read the lyrics? They are /are on the verge of being death metal

not even close to death metal my misinformed friend. they are thrash end of story they even call them selves thrash. infact they started thrash. for one you can understad what they sing. no true death metal band has a real singer.

death metal is like cc, deacide. at the gates. to name a few. i play guitar for 20 years and grew up with it
