Slayer – Necrophobic (1986, studio version)

When Slayer’s 3rd LP Reign in Blood was released in October 1986, top rock magazine Kerrang! called it “the heaviest album of all time.” It is considered one of the most influential heavy metal albums of all time, thrash metal in particular. It went double Platinum in November 1992.

Metal Hammer magazine named it “the best metal album of the last 20 years.” Critic Chad Bowar was quoted to have stated that “Reign in Blood is probably the best thrash album ever recorded.”

My favourite song off the album is Necrophobic, probably the most frantic rock song ever recorded. This one is for those wanting an extra strong pick-me-up song:
