| SLAYER!!! If you’ve never found yourself screaming that at the top of your lungs, covered in sweat, while fighting back the unstoppable tide of thousands of other crazed fans, chances are you’ve never truly lived. Slayer is a force of nature and, like any other natural disaster, they cannot be stopped. Trends may come and go, but Slayer is always there—time and time again. While many of their peers crashed, burned, or succumbed to the changing times, Slayer have not stopped for anybody.
Even in an age when nothing’s shocking, Slayer manages to enrage and engage the multitudes. As a way of offering praise to the true kings of heavy metal, Vitamin Records is paying tribute to some of their most brutal classics. For a different take on Slayer’s heaviest hits, we’ve interpreted their songs using violins, viola and cello. It is a dark, classical homage to the ominous sound that Slayer has created since day one.
