TMD’s creator, Randy “Rocket” Cody, has uploaded a cover of SLAYER’s “Disciple” song off 2001’s “God Hates Us All” album. LISTEN BELOW!!
Rocket comments:
“Producing this cover song was a good outlet during my ongoing mourning of my late cat Sly. Definitely very therapeutic. I highly suggest anyone out there dealing with pain and sorrow to throwdown your own cover of SLAYER. Screaming real loud over ass kicking metal music. It’s good times!”
“While thrash-metal peers Metallica and Megadeth have mellowed both musically and lyrically, Slayer’s music and message remains unrelentingly anti-nearly-everything and almost unspeakably brutal. Without significant radio airplay, the hard-core California-bred quartet has amassed a loyal fan base that will not be disappointed by the 42 minutes of sheer aggression found on God Hates Us All. The twin-guitar onslaught of Kerry King and Jeff Hanneman, coupled with the rapid heartbeat double bass drums of Paul Bostaph, match the often sacrilegious and abhorrent-to-many lyrics, made even more disturbing by the fact that the CD’s release coincided with the World Trade Center tragedy. This is metal for atheists, as King writes terrifyingly prophetically: “Pessimist, terrorist, targeting the next mark/ Global chaos feeding on hysteria.” In keeping with the album’s doomsday outlook, “New Faith” offers: “Welcome to the horror of the Revelation.” A terrifyingly vitriolic and too-real album, God Hates Us All more than earns the parental advisory sticker it carries.” –Katherine Turman
