#298 Angel of Death - BREAKDOWN

“I know who you’re talking about!”

 

So, we did a thing…

After almost 6 years into this podcast, this is the first time we’ve ever done a BREAKDOWN of a single track, and what better way to kick things off than SLAYER’s ANGEL OF DEATH, which is without question “one of the most perfect thrash metal songs EVER written” and also just happens to be the killer opener on one of the most perfect thrash metal albums ever recorded, the Rick Rubin produced legendary 1986 masterpiece, Reign In Blood. 

 

Time to relive the memories of yore, including the joys of “lunchtime and slimy fingers”, and decide whether or not you will be joining “Team Hot Pocket or Team Snooch”. 

Prepare to comprehend what “abacinate” actually means and understand why it is so horrifying in context, realize that “Manghoul” isn’t phonetically accurate but does make a gruesomely fitting nickname, and discover the reason why “time doesn’t matter and isn’t important” when you JOIN US as we go BEYOND THE BREAKDOWN  into the essence of everything that makes ANGEL OF DEATH “one of the most perfect thrash metal songs EVER written”.
