5 Deep, Dark Cuts from Slayer’s Early Years
Slayer's classic lineup—bassist/frontman Tom Araya, guitarists Kerry King and the late Jeff Hanneman, and drummer Dave Lombardo—unleashed a torrent of tumultuous sounds that sent listeners into moshing paroxysms. If there was a band for disciples to thrash out their demons to, this was certainly it, even though outsiders probably thought they were being possessed by them.Many of the tunes from those first two Slayer albums are still played live today, while others reside in deep-cuts territory. Here are five Slayer tracks from that early period that hardcore fans know well, and others can become obsessed with.
