Our master in evil mayhem

Slayer is probably the most important band in my musical growth. Hence the book on Slayer is admittedly a fucker to cherish. Unfortunately this one offers so little in terms of interviews and personal backgrounds of the people of Slayer and people behind Slayer and if my memory serves me right the book wasn’t officially “approved” by the band. Mainly, this book offers us quite lenghty reviews of the albums, the necessery information of the line-up changes and such - and that’s that. And I don’t like reading reviews. Especially if they are wrong. The author made a big deal of saying things as they stand to him, voicing his opinion. Which was wrong too. I correct him on one thing; Undisputed Attitude is Slayer’s strongest album alongside Show No Mercy and Reign In Blood and not a lame fuck-up as you seem to see.
