Throughout SLAYER's history, the band never faltered in unleashing their extreme and focused aural assault, and repudiating temptations, SLAYER always chose to remain crushing and brutal, steadfastly refusing to cater to the mainstream.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e“It’s the record where SLAYER became SLAYER.” That’s what Kerry King says about Hell Awaits. And he knows of what he speaks. As the band’s guitarist, co-songwriter, and co-lyricist, he was in the trenches with vocalist\/bassist Tom Araya, guitarist Jeff Hanneman (R.I.P.), and drummer Dave Lombardo, creating what has become one of heavy metal’s greatest albums.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA significant departure from SLAYER’s 1983 debut, Show No Mercy – and every SLAYER album that came after it – Hell Awaits is both an outlier and a solidification of form. Show No Mercy was the mission statement, but Hell Awaits is a more developed and intricate execution of SLAYER’s speed, chops, and aggression.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan dir=\"auto\"\u003eContent: Hell Awaits (1-CD) restored original master), Live from Bochum 1985 (2-CD), 60p earbook with tons of photos and liner notes, poster\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan dir=\"auto\"\u003eCD 1: Hell Awaits album\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan dir=\"auto\"\u003eHell Awaits\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan dir=\"auto\"\u003eKill Again\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan dir=\"auto\"\u003eAt Dawn They Sleep\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan dir=\"auto\"\u003ePraise of Death\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan dir=\"auto\"\u003eNecrophiliac\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan dir=\"auto\"\u003eCrypts of Eternity\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan dir=\"auto\"\u003eHardening of the Arteries\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan dir=\"auto\"\u003eCD 2: Live from Bochum 1985\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan dir=\"auto\"\u003eHell Awaits (Live from Bochum 1985)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan dir=\"auto\"\u003eAggressive Perfector (Live from Bochum 1985)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan dir=\"auto\"\u003eCaptor of Sin (Live from Bochum 1985)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan dir=\"auto\"\u003eThe Final Command (Live from Bochum 1985)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan dir=\"auto\"\u003eKill Again (Live from Bochum 1985)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan dir=\"auto\"\u003eCrypts of Eternity (Live from Bochum 1985)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan dir=\"auto\"\u003eFight Till Death (Live from Bochum 1985)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan dir=\"auto\"\u003eNecrophiliac (Live from Bochum 1985)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan dir=\"auto\"\u003eHaunting the Chapel (Live from Bochum 1985)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan dir=\"auto\"\u003eHardening of the Arteries (Live from Bochum 1985)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan dir=\"auto\"\u003eCD 3: Live from Bochum 1985\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan dir=\"auto\"\u003eBlack Magic (Live from Bochum 1985)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan dir=\"auto\"\u003eDie by the Sword (Live from Bochum 1985)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan dir=\"auto\"\u003eThe Antichrist (Live from Bochum 1985)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan dir=\"auto\"\u003eAt Dawn They Sleep (Live from Bochum 1985)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan dir=\"auto\"\u003eShow No Mercy (Live from Bochum 1985)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan dir=\"auto\"\u003eEvil Has No Boundaries (Live from Bochum 1985)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan dir=\"auto\"\u003eChemical Warfare (Live from Bochum 1985)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan dir=\"auto\"\u003ePraise of Death (Live from Bochum 1985)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-attributes\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMetal Blade 2026\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Metal Blade","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52722065146129,"sku":null,"price":799.0,"currency_code":"NOK","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0514\/3914\/1044\/files\/slayerhell_931f739a-22e5-4767-b2d6-9618c1fe024a_1.jpg?v=1763012871","url":"https:\/\/rekviem.no\/en-de\/products\/slayer-hell-awaits-40th-anniversary-3cd-preorder","provider":"Rekviem","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
