I could say "What took you song long" with the Ride the Lightning album, but then I'd have to say the same about Overkill for myself for I only got that one within the last year, I believe

While I didn't buy any of the full albums, I just downloaded the Slayer songs

• "Hell Awaits"
• "Angel of Death"
• "Piece By Piece"
• "Reborn"
• "Raining Blood"

I picked up the new Saliva album this past week and when I listened to it I had to look again. Now they sound just like all the other radio friendly clones like Nickelback and Saving Abel. I also picked up Leah - Of Earth And Angels and Lunatica - Fables & Dreams.

Do you just buy tracks one at a time...? I've only done this when it's the only song available, or when I can't afford the whole thing. So, I'm not knocking it, but with bands like Slayer, I'd get the whole album. On CD. That's just me, though.

Also "A.I.R.," "Metal Thrash Mad," and "I'm Eighteen" by Anthrax.

I've basically embraced thrash metal completely and totally.

I see very little point in buying an entire Slayer album. Most of their songs sound very similar, and I've done just fine buying a handful of songs. Show No Mercy was a great album and I bought that entire album..on CD of course.

Same is said about Kill 'Em All, or thrash in general, for that matter. But I assume you've heard the rest of the songs on those albums? I like to buy full albums because there are times where I only like a few songs from a particular album but upon future listens I started to like them all. Exactly what happened with Kill 'Em All; I used to feel that that was the worst one of the bunch, but until I started to really listen to the other tracks, not just Seek and Destroy, Hit the Light, or Jump in the Fire, I began to think it was a pretty good album. So, you might think that just getting the songs you liked is a good idea, but that might cut your future tastes down to size.

I literally felt the same way about Kill Em All, I thought it was terrible at first, though I always liked the "Four Horsemen" and Seek & Destroy. I have the Haunting Chapel EP, and Show No Mercy, which is my favorite Slayer album right now.
