I enjoy Metal, but I fall more into the 70s-80s Metal crowd, Sabbath, Deep Purple, Priest, Maiden, Megadeth, Metallica, Motorhead, etc.

I also love the what some would call almost a fusion metal of bands like Soundgarden and Alice in Chains in the early 90s where they take the simplicity of "grunge" and fuse it with the heaviness of metal.

I enjoy modern Metal as well, I just find myself engrossed in more of the punk/blues sounds that came from the earlier guys.

RIP Jeff Hanneman.

http://www.cnn.com/2013/05/02/showbiz/california-jeff-hanneman-obit/index.html

CNN) -- Grammy-winning guitarist Jeff Hanneman, a founding member of the heavy metal band Slayer, died Thursday of liver failure in Southern California, the band said in a statement.

He was 49.

"Slayer is devastated to inform that their bandmate and brother, Jeff Hanneman, passed away at about 11 a.m. this morning near his Southern California home. Hanneman was in an area hospital when he suffered liver failure," the band said in a statement posted on its website and Facebook page.

Hanneman leaves behind his wife, Kathy, a sister and two brothers.

"He ... will be sorely missed," the band said.

The guitarist was with Slayer from its founding in 1981. Its breakthrough came five years later with the release of "Reign in Blood," an album that included two songs -- "Angel of Death" and "Raining Blood" -- co-written by Hanneman.

That was one of 10 studio albums that the band put out over three decades together, during which they performed thousands of shows.

On Slayer's official website, Hanneman said that the last one -- "World Painted Blood" -- came together quickly because the band's members worked seamlessly.

"The interaction between all of us on this record was really something special," he said. "... The chemistry was just good."

In 2006 and 2007, Slayer won Grammy awards for best metal performance.

The metal world -- in tweets from, among many others, the bands Rancid, Hatebreed, In Flames and Testament -- reacted to Hanneman's death with sadness and appreciation, referring to him as a "true heavy metal legend" and a "brother in thrash."

"Jeff Hanneman will always be a metal god," wrote rocker Andrew WK. "A true master, he gave energy and excitement to millions, and will continue to. #PartyForSlayer."

The news also spurred thousands of diehard fans to comment about Hanneman on Slayer's Facebook page.

Wrote one: "One of the best shredders ever to walk Earth. RIP, good sir."

Can't play or download the song. Would be interesting to hear Slayer in 8bit!

OMG!!! I didn't know they had a new album! I checked just a short while ago and didn't see anything. They're one of my favorite bands!

EDIT: They definitely kept true to their style based on the clip. On a side note, I think Kinstrife & Blood are a nice clone but they are not active right now

Probably not quite as good as Oath Bound but it's a really, really good album.

Slayer....

A TRUE pioneer in metal. The 1986 album is TRULY a metal classic. There is NO comparison.

RIP Jeff. You will be missed.
