Linkisode... Reign in Blood: A Musical Analysis [Season 4, Episode 28 (#158)]

Hey there, true believers & Slaytanic pals.

This is not a proper episode. This is another linkisode.

Tomorrow — Monday — you'll get another full-on episode about Reign in Blood. But for today...

Today's topic -- AGAIN -- is more REIGN IN BLOOD.

Today's content is not in the audio portion. It's in the link below.

Stefan Ekström breaks down Reign in Blood... and plays it too:

I am not a musician. If anything is lacking in my extensive coverage of Reign in Blood, it's technical musical analysis. THIS guy -- Sweden's Stefan Ekström -- breaks it down in great detail in this YouTube video.

He makes a couple incorrect suppositions about the band & their history & how they did a couple things in the studio. But, hey, nobody bats 1.000. He's still worth listening to. And he has my book now... so his extensive knowledge bank has been updated.

This is episode #158 of 55 Talkin' Slayer. We're running over a little bit. Free listeners miss more than half the content. To learn more about getting every single episode, including the bonus stuff, visit here. Packages start under $1 per episode.

For the next year or so, every week, TALKIN' SLAYER subscribers will get a chapter or two of "Slayer 66 2/3: A Metal Band Biography... Or, How F*kin' Slayer Kicked Fkin' @ss," REBORN: The Updated, Revised& Massively Expanded 4th Edition

Talkin' Slayer Season IV presents the chronological history of Slayer, as seen / heard in the book.

The previous edition of the book ran around 350 pages. The new REBORN Edition runs 639. We added a lot. And you can hear it all here, one week at a time, piece by piece.

You've never heard it like this before... unless you have the audiobook. The run time is 1.4 DAYS. That's a lot. It's available CHEAP at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠SlayerBook.Bandcamp.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.

Mostly, in Season 4, what you will get every week or so is a chapter from the book... plus some cool bonus stuff, like original interviews with people you WILL want to hear from.

The book was updated after the reunion, massively expanded, thoroughly overhauled, and rewritten so it's easier to read — both in format and writing style. Check it out at...
