"World Painted Blood is both a return to form and transition for Slayer. The heavy riffs are back, but the songs are written more like AC/DC would write them. The result is a toe-tapping, fist-pumping, blasphemy-screaming ride through hell on an economy ticket. It's not the progrock-influenced epic style of older Slayer, but it's a quick study and a ripping terror: simple but effective."

- Brett Stevens, Examiner.com (Slayer - World Painted Blood: "Simple but effective")


Roughly what I think of it. It's not old Slayer, but it's better than anything since Seasons in the Abyss.

Divine Intervention is the best IMO.

World painted blood is just repackaged riffs with some of the worst lyrics ever written. Playing with dolls just sounds like a clone of Jihad from the last album. If your gonna copy yourself at least steal from Reign in Blood.

They do that, too, but it ends up working for me.

At the very least, it's MUCH improved over "Diabolus in Musica" through "Christ Illusion," and I think far more together than "Divine Intervention."

Man, after seeing Slayer a couple times recently, Tom just doesn't sing with aggression anymore. Their shows put me to sleep and I just have no desire to check out this album. Never opposed to thrashing to some Slayer, and Christ Illusion was alright, but I will listen to Reign In Blood and Undisputed Attitude until I die.

If Music elitist snob means having an oppinion and not believing something's good just because it says Slayer on it sign me up. Death Magnetic sucks and End Game was alright at best.
