A good three years away from "Christ Illusion, Slayer we slam into the face of fierce" Painted World Blood ". Forty minutes in which the low wall of sound of butchers California overwhelm you without compromise, just to let you know that this time you do not fuck.
Written and recorded in just over four months, the album consists of eleven songs, six of which consist of Kerry King (guitar) and five by Jeff Hanneman (guitar). Recall that the previous album are Dave Lombardo on drums, back after several-year hiatus from the band, which had been replaced by the excellent Paul Bostaph. Tom Araya as always at the microphone and behind the now ubiquitous sound of thrash producer, Rick Rubin. The sound is not clean, so it's heavy and dusty as it should be. We're talking about Slayer, not the Teletubbies. Original It starts now in the fifth with the title track "Blood Painted World," the second single from the album, with his furious riff of clear matrix Hanneman, enhanced by the break much more melodic than in the recent past. The icing on the cake, the voice of Tom Araya, who in my opinion over the years, blends better with the sound of the band. Thanks also to his solo reminds hallucinated some classics of the '80s period. Speed \u200b\u200bis the key word to define "Unit 731", and if You know the furious riffing and the drumming of the good old days, you can have an idea: no time to recover from the solos of Kerry and Jeff crossed the finish two minutes and a half. And you feel as if you had passed him in a truck which obviously have not had time to take the license plate.
not slow down even with "Snuff", a boulder that rolls on the neck at full speed, for a change. These are the songs that make you understand that now the metal is free from external influences that distort in the 90s, often making it almost unrecognizable: a lot of groups are returning to their roots and the sound that made this genre great. Following a spectacular "Beauty Through Order" that after starting a very "Season In The Abyss" (1990) ... continues just as if it had been composed for this great album! The almost martial rhythm gives way only half a solo piece with a consequent change of time and just riff on Oscar. Headbanging insured for the likely future classic that will surely make the dead (literally) under the stage. flying start with "Hate Worldwide", the third single from the soundtrack for a perfect metal blender, given the nastiness that permeates and speed of execution.
The heavy metal extreme state of the art in this album is called "Public Display Of Dismemberment", composed by Kerry King in a state of grace that focuses virtually all the ideas that made him famous in his career along with colleague Jeff in two minutes and a half bestial.
"Human Strain" is permeated with an atmosphere much more elaborate, but not least "angosicante," with its pounding rhythm and the fantastic vocals of Araya, who played crucial to the success of the piece.
the vein of experimental "Jihad" from the previous platter, Kerry King offers us "Americon" different and more accessible, it would almost say "commercial", but we're still talking about the Slayer.
We're back to classic sound with "Psychopathy Red", first single, with two adjectives that describe Count: fucking brilliant. Point. E 'already a classic. A classic that rips the bones from the body and I'll crumble in two minutes.
are back atmosphere sick of Human Strain "with" Playing With Dolls, "made for calm (relative to the sound of Slayer, of course) in view of the listener conlusiva" Not Of This God, concentrated tornado sound of fury composition and hatred.
It is rumored that this might be the last Slayer album. I sincerely hope not, because we have once again shown who's boss with an album is not perfect, but directed to a specific audience that wants exactly what I have described. Fuck experiments and contamination, Slayer are unique. You can hate them, you love them, you can not understand them, but they are there and, trust me, even if they do not shit, sooner or later you will find them. E 'was also the case for me and will be for the metalheads that have yet to be born to find out masterpieces like "Reign In Blood" (1986).
