I came for the Metallica, but I stayed for the Megadeth. And some Anthrax. Never got into Slayer.

You might wanna give South Of Heaven another spin...that album is their finest and it is less aggressive as some of their stuff...very doomy also at places. I think you might dig that one.

I think it's mostly the vocals and lyrics for me that keep me from getting into Slayer. I know Mustaine will growl as well, but somehow I can enjoy his, but not Araya's.

Fair enough...although I wouldn't call Tom's singing style growling though. It's more of a mixture of screaming and yelling...I assume there is a term for that kind of singing too but I don't think it's growling though.

Yeah it's not singing either, it's more yelling with the occasional scream.

In the Texas vernacular, we call that "hollering like hell", but it's pronounced more like "hollerin lahk hay-ull"
