great songs from what I know in one case so far is one
of the best records of the year and I would expect similar
greatness from the other which we should have in a minute.(Island)

Years
ago I would go to Modells on LI and they would have
$1 bins of VHS’s mostly kung fu and B English
biker movies. This Turbo Negro record is an A soundtrack
to one of those B biker movies. I remember this one
where they would ride really fast and drive themselves
to death and as long as they enjoyed the ride to their
death they would come back and live forever. I know
this is off the subject a little, but its what goes
on when I listen to this record; I enjoy the whole ride.
What does the intro remind me of? Each song is epic.

Ok, what can be said about Slayer that
hasn’t been said already? The music portion of
this DVD is brutal. 15-20 later and these guys still
fucking Burn. Though, Dave Lombardo is definitely the
link that has always kept Slayer rhythmically on point,
Paul Bostaph does not disappoint. The fan portion of
this release is testament that Slayer fans lose their
fucking minds when it comes to this band. There are
always arguments as to which band is the heaviest or
the most evil. Nothing comes even close to Slayer. They
have compromised nothing in their careers and I for
one have been there, proudly, every step of the way.
As a wise man on the Slayer DVD pointed out, “If
you don’t listen to Slayer, you should just fucking
die.” Nuff Said.
