Of the aforementioned four Thrash bands, Slayer has to be considered the “heaviest”.In addition to the rapid velocity in which they played and their shouting vocals; they sung of “dark” topics that touched on death, genocide, Nazism and Satanism.Not only is Slayer part of the “Big Four of Thrash Metal”, they have been considered to be a big influence on the Death Metal scene.Still together today, Slayer’s fan base remained strong as they never veered to far from their roots and never did attempt to “sell out” to approach mainstream success.Ironically, that could be the very thing that either puts them in the Hall or keeps them out.
