Slayer "World Painted Blood"[views:2187][posts:11]_________________________________________ [Nov 8,2009 12:35am - Conservationist ""] [img] "World Painted Blood is both a return to form and transition for Slayer. The heavy riffs are back, but the songs are written more like AC/DC would write them. The result is a toe-tapping, fist-pumping, blasphemy-screaming ride through hell on an economy ticket. It's not the progrock-influenced epic style of older Slayer, but it's a quick study and a ripping terror: simple but effective." - Brett Stevens, Examiner.com (Slayer - World Painted Blood: "Simple but effective") Roughly what I think of it. It's not old Slayer, but it's better than anything since Seasons in the Abyss. |

They do that, too, but it ends up working for me. http://www.anus.com/metal/about/blog/pivot/entry.php?id=117 At the very least, it's MUCH improved over "Diabolus in Musica" through "Christ Illusion," and I think far more together than "Divine Intervention." |

Their shows put me to sleep and I just have no desire to check out this album. Never opposed to thrashing to some Slayer, and Christ Illusion was alright, but I will listen to Reign In Blood and Undisputed Attitude until I die. |
