VARIANT: Red/Black Split Vinyl LP
A mini-masterwork possessing plenty of bite, Haunting the Chapel officially set the groundwork for the classic Slayer sound. Following the classically-edged metal melodies of Show No Mercy, the L.A. quartet became decidedly more ruthless with their dark-and-derelict guitar lines, Jeff Hanneman and Kerry King running especially hot and frantic on the identity-crystalizing “Chemical Warfare.” Dave Lombardo redefined his percussive attack while gun-turreting through double-kicks for the first time; Tom Araya scrapped falsetto theatrics to hone his man-on-the-edge rasp. It’s the EP that transformed them into the thrash world’s most dangerous band. Spin the 1984 classic now on devilish red-and-black split vinyl.
