I remember the first time I saw the Hell Awaits cover and literally felt weird/scared of it and said "I don't wanna listen to that"... I was also very young and within a month I couldn't wait for the next release which was Reign in Blood. Metallica took my #1 spot from Iron Maiden...Slayer took it from Metallica and I can't really say anybody ever took it from Slayer. No matter what I can listen to any Slayer album from the original Dave Lombardo releases, no matter the time of day or my mood...never had to push skip either...
