Christ Illusion is pretty subpar.

Agreed. Not only is it not a particularly good record, it also shows absolutely NO development of Slayer as a band whatsoever. Same old sound, dated, boring. Not that the Grammy awards mean **** anyway, but that it won in the Best Metal Album of 2006 category over Blood Mountain was pathetic, and indeed rather suspicious. Hell, 10,000 Days was better than Christ Illusion.

Its not that its a bad album, it just doesn't live up to the hype. I also don't think it was a return to their old sound like everyone said. It just seemed like rather generic faceless thrash.
