My copy has a glossy cover, does anyone has the same? I bought it like if it was a bootleg but now have many doubts
Anyone else think this press suffer greatly from IGD? Letters
When it came out, I rushed to the record store - I bought it, played it - and was disappointed how slow they played.
The album is a milestone, but it took me a while to realize. Still not my favourite Slayer-album, but one of their best.
If anyone has an inner sleeve they are looking to sell let me know.
Mine: Side A: 846 871 1 S1=1 670 07 1 113, Side B: 846 871 1 S2=1 670 07 1 116- MIne reads Side A: 846871 1 S1=1 670 07 1 15, Side B: 846871 1 S2=1 670 07 1 1 4
- Maybe there are other original (!!!) Matrix/Runout stamped sides outa there:Side A: 846871 1 S1=1 670 7 1 1 15, Side B: 846871 1 S2=1 670 07 1 1 20 on my lp. What now? Enjoy the music of your original record:-)
My Lp Matrix / Runout side A ends 1120 and Side B 1110
What now?
I'm not a huge metal fan, but this easily gets in my top ten metal albums. Great gloomy & menacing vibes, duelling guitar solos in strikingly different styles & practically a sing-a-long end-to-end. "Reign In Blood" is the more definitive Slayer album & "Angel of Death" untoppable for a single track, but this was an artistic triumph.
