Review :

The only shitty part about getting this EP was going into the mallcore infested store Hot Topic. That will be the last time I will ever step foot into that store. There was an aggrivated employee in the back of the cashier while I purchased this EP. He thought I was stupid for buying it. I'm not, I have no regrets buying this EP at all.

Now on to the music. Cult is a really great song. The sound production of the song is great. It starts off with something similar to what a modern hard rock band might do. The guitar doesn't sound that great in the beginning with the cymbal work going on. It gets better as Dave Lombardo's assault and batter begins and the guitar riff sounds better. The drums start to get better too. When Tom Araya delivers his awesome vocals, it sounds like good ol' thrash metal. The guitars and drums sound really thrashy at this point. The best thrash metal guitar duo execute with great speed. It is not Reign in Blood-like, however it is somewhat standard for Slayer. The first guitar solo also sounds somewhat standard for Slayer. It was just short and sweet guitar solo. It could of been a little bit longer. The guitar solo that ends the song doesn't really make up for it.

The lyrics sound a little bit childish, but it is straight forward. I get the message very clearly and I think 5 years olds can get it too. Kerry King could of wrote slightly better lyrics. C'mon, dude! The drums are the most superior aspect of the song. Lombardo returns to Slayer and he really rocks. He never disappoints me.

The videos on this EP are OK. They could of put more footage of the behind the scenes video with Slayer in the studio. I was thinking it would be the one I saw on the internet, but with more added. Nope, it's the video many Slayer fans downloaded. The only thing is, the quality is much superior. The video with Slayer performing War Ensemble is pretty good. As always the band was ultra energetic along with the crowd was really into it.

Slayer - God Send Death (Ep/Single) (320)

Line-up :

Tom Araya - Vocals/Bass
Kerry King - Guitar
Jeff Hanneman - Guitar
Paul Bostaph - Drums

Promotional release for
"God Hates Us All"

Review :

This little single pack comes across more like an EP than the regular "one track" single as it has no less than two unreleased songs tagged on. The production is quite strong, despite what many have claimed on the guitars are meaty, smooth and in your face.

-God Send Death: This song is CLASSIC Slayer. Dueling solos, hammering riffs and lyrics about God, pain and the tearing loose of eyeballs. What more can a Slayer fan ask for? The riffs own, the drumming is beast-like, and the overall mood is one of confusion of violence. Kudos to Slayer for allowing us occasional glimpses at why Slayer is Slayer...even today.

-Scarstruck: What a great title and a good song. Unlike Addict which kind of wore on me a bit this song kicks along with some decent hooks/riffs in the Slayer mold. This could have made the album had they bumped one of the previously released songs like "Here Comes the Pain".

-Addict: Not as good as "Scarstruck", but still interesting. The riffwork is a little static for me, but overall cool. Lyrically, it's not half as interesting as "Scarstruck". If this had made the record it would have been the ultimate filler track, but in the scheme of an EP it works out well.

This is a "must own" for Slayer fanatics and a curiousity piece for everyone else. While "God Send Death" is the standout piece (hence why it actually made the record) the other two have worthy attritbutes that any other metal fan may enjoy.
