Glad I brought my son Josh up on this genre. For all of you old school guys out there, you would ALL APPRECIATE his taste. He's 31 now and goes to every show of the thrash, death, hardcore metal and so on and so on up and down the East coast. Watching him now in the pits brings me back and makes me PROUD!!! when we attend shows together. GREAT SHIT!!!

Hey brother. Thanks for the what's up. Yeah, never been to SB. Been to San Diego and San Clemente a bunch of times. Never made it up there yet. One day. Later bruh.

Great review, I think your assessment is spot on. I’m anxious to hear the rest of the record. Mark’s a fantastic singer and I think he’ll be way better than Phil. I’m also shocked on how they kept the members a secret for so long?

Well said brother, born in "67" I personally have been EXTREMELY FORTUNATE to have seen ALL of the greats back in the day. The one that stands out most, Overkill, on Taking over tour, opening for Slayer on Reign in blood in a small club named the Living Room in Providence, RI. FUCKIN' MENTAL!!! UNFORGETTABLE ERA in METAL!!! You have a great channel bro, keep up the great work.@@shalo6669

It's basically what Slayer did for the last 25 years. Nothing out of the ordinary, nothing special, just standard everything. Slayer had their pinnacle with Reign, South and Seasons. After that, it went downwards. And that's from where King goes onward.

Nah Slayer are overrated. Megadeth were and still are much better. Kerry King is a douchebag

I liked your take, I think the vocals are great minus that building preverse.. sounds very similar to God hates us all era stuff. The riffs sounded like late Metallica stuff, pretty robotic. I do like Bostaphs style although I know he isn't Lombardo. The worst part is the band name, there are other members with greater talent. My biggest wonder is if Kerry wrote all the lyrics on the album, even if it's Repentless 2.0 it could be interesting with a different vocal take and dynamic

@shalo6669

Yeah man. I agree with all this. Kerry's lyrics are pretty stock. I'm positive Kerry wrote the lyrics. He's been dumbing down his vocabulary, lyrically, for 25 years. Paul sounds great I agree. Yeah band name is disrespectful almost but those dudes are all on board so if they're cool, I'm good.

Please know how to pronounce Mark’s last name. He’s historic.

It's hard for me to expect a Kerry King's song that's different to Slayer. The guy is slayer always been slayer so why I should expect something different to slayer?. If papa Het left Metallica and his new song is similar to nirvana, shit that would be scary

I like my coffee early in the morning fuelled with c**aine too

Slayer never sold out like some metalic bands did just to survive the 90s grunge takeover. Thats enough for me. There are many decent metal bands that came after, but for me, i respect staying with your roots and suffering thru the hard times a lot more than re inventing yourself just to make money. What do i know?

@shalo6669

Yeah I'm happy these older guys are still doing it man. I'm mean 60 yrs old and making this music is cool in my book.

The only good thing about it is that he’s totally owning it by putting his name on it. Thank god he decided not to name the band after a Slayer album title, song title, or whatever. It’s totally generic thrash with totally generic modern production and it pisses me off that Mark signed up to ape Tom’s vocal style as closely as possible. People are calling this “Slayer 2.0,” but it’s a watered-down Slayer knockoff, like the new “Pantera.” Slayer was done when Jeff passed away.

He should of given the band an actual name, his band mates are no chumps themselves

The drums are really weak. I never liked Bostaph from his work with Forbidden to Slayer, he's just a dittohead generic metal drummer who lacks the flare and finesse of Dave. It sounds like a drum machine. Like its digitally overwritten. I hate these synthetic modern thrash drums. If you wanna hear what real drums should sound like listen to Hell Awaits their best album. This is pretty generic thrash with Phil from Vio-Lence a generic thrash band from SF on lead guitar. Mark's vocals are ok. I prefer Sean of Vio-Lence who's much more distinctive. He's running a one man band now with no original members!

No.Completely forgettable.
