Reign in Blood's release was delayed because of concerns regarding its lyrical subject matter and graphic artwork: several Catholic Popes drowning in a river of blood in Hell; Satan on his throne; etc.

The opening track, "Angel of Death", references Josef Mengele and details acts committed at the Auschwitz concentration camp, which provoked allegations of Nazism. Slayer takes no pro or con position on the matter in the song.

The album was Slayer's first to enter the Billboard 200; the release peaked at number 94, and in 1992 was awarded a gold certification by the Recording Industry Association of America.

Kerrang! magazine described it as the "heaviest album of all time" while Metal Hammer magazine named it "the best metal album of the last 20 years".

Inexplicably the ultra-mainstream Spin Magazine ranked the album number 67 on their list of the "100 Greatest Albums, 1985-2005."

Slayer's "Reign In Blood" was directly responsible for the rise of death metal and cannot be bested. Bow down.

Reign in Blood is by far the best metal album of the 1980s bar none.

4.

Often regarded as thrash metal band Slayer's best work, and sometimes even called the best/heaviest/most brutal/fastest album of all time, Reign in Blood is a highly overrated Slayer album. Slayer's first two albums, Show No Mercy and Hell Awaits both surpass Reign in Blood greatly. Also, Kreator's second album, Pleasure to Kill, released in the same year as Reign in Blood, is much heavier and more brutal (and in my opinion, better) than Reign in Blood could ever hope to be.

Thrash newbie: I just heard Reign In Blood today, and it is definitely THE best album ever!

Me: Go listen to Show No Mercy.

Thrash newbie: *explodes*
