After 39 years, LIVE UNDEAD may still be one of the finest recorded moments in SLAYER’s budding thrash legacy, capturing a “kinda live” re-recording of the best parts of their hugely successful Metal Blade debut (SHOW NO MERCY) and their follow-up EP (HAUNTING THE CHAPEL) in a room full of rowdy, surly, and occasionally unruly, die-hard SLAYER fans with the objective of capturing the “live” performance & energy of a band forged & tempered by dates on the road with an improved sound and just the slightest tweak of production sorcery.

It’s time to uncover “the biggest scam on earth” and gear up for some “hijinks and shenanigans” as we ponder the question “does the upstairs match the downstairs?” and prepare to embrace “all the veins” of our brand new, exclusive “social media platform”.

Get ready to “weedly-woo” and discover greeting cards perfect for “wordingsmiths” struggling to write “the perfect note”, grab “the last splash”, try “not to be a Taintler” and JOIN US as we get “a little dark” and discuss the timeless sonic magic that mimics a concert held in a dungeon foyer graced with hellscape decor as we take on SLAYER: LIVE UNDEAD.
