I was reminded today of how much I hate Slayer.
Slayer is, without a doubt, the shittiest thrash band ever. And coming from someone who despises most thrash, that's saying something.
And don't start the "Slayer is more influential than Metallica, Megadeth etc" argument, because it's bullshit, and you know it. All Slayer brought to the genre was formulaic and repetitive riffs, solos that pop out of nowhere and aren't even good, a bald guy with a dumb beard, and the most boring singer in heavy metal history.
I leave you with this, which sums it all up perfectly.
