If my recollection is correct you've never been a fan of this album?

I've always felt that Slayer's heaviness is largely defined by their speed, and to me KEA is definitely the most hard hitting album in that respect.

In terms of mood of their sound I could see your point, but in regards to the guitar sound itself I don't see a large difference, I believe most of the songs on the first three albums are done in standard tuning.
