Slayer released the name of their new album a few weeks ago, "Repentless."

I won't buy it, but that is a sick name for a metal album.

Nah. ****ty name. "Hey, it sounds like "relentless" cause we're totally a brutal thrash band, but it's all anti-religious cause it's about not repenting. Nobody remembers that Tom Araya is straight up Catholic, right? Good."

"God Hates Us All" might have been trying too hard to sound confrontational, but it was still such a badass name that it didn't matter how goofy it was. "Repentless" has none of that boneheaded awesomeness. And at least "Christ Illusion" had some small amount of class, and "World Painted Blood" sounded vaguely cool. This is quite possibly Slayer's worst album title ever.

**** your new drummer, **** your new track, **** your new guitarist **** your new album title, and **** your shoes.

Wait, so Gary Holt is officially their guitar player now, and not just in the band temporarily to help with touring? I don't know how I feel about that. Exodus has been doing far better than Slayer in the past decade and a half, but the dude also likes to write songs that are way too long. Seeing as he's also the undisputed band leader of his own group, I don't know what that'll mean for the inter-group politics/musical direction in Slayer now.

On the other hand, he has written a lot more good songs than Slayer have recently, and with Kerry King there to reign in his long-winded, wannabe-technical tendencies, the songwriting might actually get a well-needed kick in the pants without becoming bloated. It's not like the original lineup didn't make a ****ty album last time around, so I guess they have nothing to lose.

But that new song did suck ass. So, my expectations are low.

I will definitely check out the new Slayer but Im not expecting anything special ... both singles have been more then just a little boring IMO.

The new Exodus on the other hand kicks some major ass.

Had the opportunity to see them live. Easily the top showmen of the tour. Moreso cause the music was headbanging.

I don't know, maybe I am wrong, but World Painted Blood disappointed me with Tom Araya voice. I am fan of Slayer's earlier work, but for me it was to modified, he sounds quite like Hettfield on Death Magnetic.
