Thanks. Got it.

Boy, does Jihad suck. Big time. Eyes of the Insane was bad too.

I just heard "Eyes" and it's just as ri-goddamned-diculous as Jihad. It sounded as if they tried to bring that creepy, darkish feel from "Dead Skin Mask" into it, but it failed miserably. The SAME Slipknot-ish GHUA riff in the entire song just flat-out ruins it and the repetitive lyrics, choruses, and awful Araya vox make it painful. This CD is going to suck worse than St. Anger.

Hah, so I'm not alone.

I listened to these some days ago when they first leaked or whatever and thought it was pretty crap.

Slayer has the full song (Cult) on their website. Overall, it's......




Great! I love that long intro, Kerry King gives some sweet RIB-style solos, and Dave Lombardo's drumming has never been better. My only complaint is with Tom's vocals. His voice just seems to have gotten too deep for this style of screaming. So it admittedly sounds a little hokey.

Otherwise, great song. I'll definitely be checking this album out when it's released next month.

I'll agree with the part about their lyrics being stupid (although South Of Heaven and Seasons In The Abyss had some really good lyrics). But overrated? No way!

To be honest, I can't think of a single metal band that has never had stupid lyrics (be it intentionally or unintentionally).

I'm not gonna complain about Lombardo's drumming. He's the only sane guy left in Slayer. Even Arraya disappoints me lately.

That "religion is this, religion is that" part is pretty damn crappy. The rest of it is ok.
