This one is definitely in the top 3 for this album (such a hard choice hehe). It has one of my favorite intros on the album, the lick at 0:23 is just too nasty haha. This is one of those songs where the transitions and licks fit together so well it's hard to say anything bad about it. I like how it incorporates a little bridge part and then goes right back into that awesome lick. Another favorite part of mine is around 3:00 where Tom goes.... "Do you wanna die!?" haha really funny. Also around 3:16 that snare hit is very cool sounding and really accents the "I'm only after death!" part. This is a very good song lol. Enjoy!
π€ Lyrics Start π€
[Verse 1]
Funeral held for the depression of man
Holds the key to his own death
Entering a tomb of a corpse yet conceived
Tighten the tourniquet around your neck
Sifting away the debris of hated life
Cold touch of death begins to chill your spine
Seeking life beyond your perishment
Repeating words echoing through your mind
[Verse 2]
Chanting lines of blind witchery
To save yourself from extinction
Wanting to die is your reason to live
New life born from the oppressed
Taste your blood as it trickles through the air
Another casualty, beyond the shadows you fall
Losing ground, the fate you feel draws near
Fatality, reality, await the final call
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 3]
My sinful glare at nothing holds thoughts of death behind it
Skeletons in my mind commence tearing at my sanity
Vessels in my brain carrying death until my birth
Come and die with me forever, share insanity
Do you wanna die?!
[Verse 4]
The waves of blood are rushing near, pounding at the walls of lies
Turning off my sanity, reaching back into my mind
Non-rising body from the grave showing new reality
What I am, what I want, Iβm only after death

Reign in Blood is the third studio album by American thrash metal band Slayer, released on October 7, 1986, by Def Jam Recordings.[1] The album was the band's first collaboration with producer Rick Rubin, whose input helped the band's sound evolve. The release date of the album was delayed because of concerns regarding the lyrical subject matter of the opening track "Angel of Death", which refers to Josef Mengele and describes acts such as human experimentation that he committed at the Auschwitz concentration camp.[2] The band's members stated that they did not condone Nazism and were merely interested in the subject.[3]
Reign in Blood was well received by both critics and fans, and was responsible for bringing Slayer to the attention of a mainstream metal audience. Today, it is often mentioned among the greatest heavy metal records ever. In their 2017 listing of the 100 Greatest Metal albums of all time, Rolling Stone magazine ranked "Reign in Blood" at #6.[4] Alongside Anthrax's Among the Living, Megadeth's Peace Sells... but Who's Buying?, and Metallica's Master of Puppets, Reign in Blood helped define the sound of the emerging US thrash metal scene in the mid-1980s, and has remained influential since. The album was Slayer's first to enter the US Billboard 200, peaking at number 94, and was certified Gold on November 20, 1992. In 2013, NME ranked it at number 287 in its list of the 500 Greatest Albums of All Time.[5]
Following the positive reception Slayer's previous release Hell Awaits had received, the band's producer and manager Brian Slayer realized the band were in a position to hit the "big time" with their next album. Slayer negotiated with several record labels, among them Rick Rubin and Russell Simmons' Def Jam Recordings. However, Slayer was reluctant to have the band signed to what was at the time primarily a hip hop label. Slayer drummer Dave Lombardo was made aware of Rubin's interest, and he initiated contact with the producer. However, Slayer's remaining members were apprehensive of leaving Metal Blade Records, with whom they were already under contract.[6]
Lombardo contacted Columbia Records, which was Def Jam's distributor, and managed to get in touch with Rubin, who along with photographer Glen E. Friedman agreed to attend one of the band's concerts.
