I don’t know why you keep comparing seasons with south of heaven. Seasons is hell awaits and Reign In Blood revisited more than any of their other albums, just with the pussification (as you put it) that South of heaven had carried over. I guess it uses the mid-tempo feel of South of Heaven, but the other albums had that too. Anyway Seasons lacks the subdued, gross, doomy sound that South of Heaven had, which is the sole reason I love that album so much. They dropped the doom-y riffs that South Of Heaven had. Araya in particular is at his most generic on seasons. It’s just business as usual, like all their following albums. The title track on Seasons is the only thing on that album that is remotely interesting.

Seasons in the Abyss is most definitely a mix of Reign in Blood and South of Heaven. That's, like, so obvious that I don't even know what you're talking about. And yeah, it is business as usual, but it's also sort of the definitive Slayer album as far as summing them up on one disc. It's not my fav Slayer album, but it's very solid front to back.
