Slayer was one of the first metal bands I ever got into and remain one of my favorites.
Damn, me too Bronan. I bought Reign In Blood when I was 13 years old.
Glad I got to see them in concert, when they came here for the Divine Intervention tour. Just wish I could have seen the original lineup with Dave Lombardo.
RIP Jeff

I heard he died from a necrotic spider bite. His arm was infected badly enough to require amputation but his liver failed while in a medically induced coma. That's pretty metal.
RIP Jeff, Slayer's been one of my favorites for years.

Liver failure is most likely from two years of hardcore medications he had to take to survive flesh eating bacteria from a spider bite.
Jeff certainly drank his fair share during his time, but I doubt he was drinking for the past two years as the spider bite nearly killed him in 2011. He has been unable to tour or perform, and has been trying to recover from it since that time.

I can still remember buying Seasons in the Abyss, my first Slayer album when I was still in middle school. I was a HUGE metalhead back in the day (still enjoy the music but not just as crazy about it as I was) and Slayer was one of favorite bands. Even today I still listen to them on the regular.

Now I feel old for shouting "PLAY SOME SLAYER" at every androgynous hipster acoustic bastard playing on a street corner.

Damn shame. Still have CD albums by them, seen them live a couple of times. Definitely one of the most important bands in metal.

Do hipsters listen to metal? Is it ironic enough?

I hope not. That song is about Joseph Mengele. The concentration camp doctor doing horrifying experiments on people.
I used to the a metal fan in my youth. Listened to Slayer all the time. He will be missed.
