Today we're going to check out five bands that sound like SLAYER. SLAYER is a legendary thrash metal band from California. They are part of the Big 4 of thrash and they are the most aggressive and evil sounding band out of those four. Tom Araya, Kerry King, Jeff Hanneman and Dave Lombardo was the classic lineup of Slayer that recorded their classic 80's catalogue. With Reign in Blood being considered a metal masterpiece. So in todays video I'm going to share five bands with you that I think sounds like Slayer. Enjoy!

Have you ever heard of an obscure album called Evil Brew from the 1980’s from a band called Cremator? They had some interesting music, can be heard on you tube, they only released on cassette tape, so sound quality is only ok. Check it out if you get the chance.

Suicidal Angels from Greece sounds like Slayer. Especially the track Bloodbath. To me Kreator sounding like Slayer is like saying Anthrax sounds like Exodus though. Bands will always influence each other but the combination of songwriting, vocals & style distinguishes them.

Damn you took me on a ride down memory lane with Kreator Extreme Aggression album. I remember being 18 years old in 1989 and working at an auto parts store. I remember one Friday getting off work and cruising to the local record store and bought the cassette in the new releases racks. When I got home I smoked a bowl and blasted it. I don't get Slayer-vibes from Kreator though. They both were aggressive, but slightly different styles. And I still love Onslaught's The Force. I had bought the record when I was in high school. I love Onslaught's Halfway To Sanity as well with Steve Grimmett handling the vocals.

Great list! Exumer was the first band I thought of when seeing the video title... I do think that their second album "Rising from the Sea" sounds even more like Slayer. The vocals from Paul Arakari (which are awesome) also sounds more like Tom Araya and tracks like "Decimation" and "Shadows of the Past" are pure Slayer worship 🤘

Speaking of Exumer, their vocalist and bass player Paul Arakari was in my Guitar class in Frankfurt American High School in Germany, way back in 1984-85, we were both seniors at the time. Great memories, I'm sure that he was pretty surprised to be able to join a professional Thrash Metal band like Exumer!

@@saltpeter7429 Kreator was my introduction band to German thrash. No one is saying that they don't deserve respect and recognition. They're the most well-known European thrash band, so I think that they got enough of both. I just do not think that you could put them in the "Similar to Slayer" category.

Very good and accurate list with a few bands I criminally missed out on checking out at the time. A good modern Thrash band who don't sound totally like Slayer, all the time but sometimes sound very, very like them in parts, is Enforced. I often hear 'Slayerisms' in lots of other bands because I've listened to them so much, my ear is acutely attuned to noticing them, haha. High On Fire have lots of Slayerisms, at times. It's a kind of lead flourish, or inflection, that I'm not sure whether it was Jeff or Kerry who was responsible for making it up. Maybe it was both. I'd love to know. An Enforced song that is absolutely chock full of these Slayerisms, is a song called Malignance. It starts out with Slayerisms, goes on in a Slayeresque style and, then, around the 2.20 mark, it goes all in with the Slayeristic goodness in such a blatant way that they obviously don't give a shit who knows it. I imagine that being told 'You sound quite like Slayer' would be considered a massive compliment to everybody in all of these bands.

Fantastic. I've been singing "Satan worships me, pardon me not" instead of the actual lyrics of "Secret whispers speed, drive me nuts" in Possessed by Fire for only the last 35 years as the vinyl release didn't have a lyric sheet. As Slayer were my favourite band from 87-90 I loved any other band that sounded like them. I think some of the euro thrashers like Necrodeath's Fragments of Insanity record, Pestilence's Malleous Maleficarum, Assassin with Interstellar Experience, Agressor's Neverending Destiny and the classic UK Hydra Vein album Rather Death Than False Of Faith were real 'bridging' bands for me into death metal/grindcore once the disappointment that was (to me) South of Heaven came out.

I think Kreator and Sacrifice had a sound all their own. Kreator tuned a lot lower than Slayer early on, then became a very melodic band. Not to mention, Araya sounded a lot more "human" than Petrozza. Sacrifice were their own beast, as well. I think the biggest thing these bands had in common was "thrash."

The Force is an unsung classic! Listened to it about a week ago and it still holds up! But the funniest thing about them is the song Metal Forces sounds like System of A Down's Prison Song decades before hand. So if you want to fuck with SOAD fans just say Onslaught wrote Prison Song before they did haha. As for Kreator, Pleasure To Kill is more definitive IMO (more brutal than anything Slayer has ever done). I would have added Sodom to this list. Specifically albums like Persecution Mania, Agent Orange and Tapping The Vein. Even M-16 blows away anything Slayer did after 1990.

Loudblast (French death metal band) at the beginning and until the split album with Agressor called Licensed to thrash sounded like Slayer Their first official album Sensorial Treatment is similar to the first 2 Sepultura albums. On the Cross the threshold EP they covered the slayer song Mandatory Suicide

Kreator is one of those groups that had its own way of developing music. you should not give in to someone else's opinion and look for something that does not exist, namely the influence of Slayer. Kreator has his own unique recognizable style that is absolutely nothing like the style of Slayer

I think the country that had the most Slayer influence was Germany. Of the big 4 the influence could be seen by all 4 in the states. UK and most of Europe but the German scene had it's own sound which became very similar to Slayers sound. If you check out the early albums by German bands (Sodom Kreator are 2 that come to mind) you see almost a black metal element that disappeared after their fisrt couple of releasers and became a lot like Slayers direction not a rippoff by any means but an influence.

Infernal Majesty - None Shall Defy is absolutely exactly like Slayer, and to my knowledge the only band to have a Vocalist that sounds like Tom Araya. Even though Ventor's( Kreator Drummer)Vocals are close, no one on Earth sounds as much like Tom Araya as Chris from Infernal Majesty does. Still no one does the unique high screaming that Tom Araya used to do . Probably the most recognizable screaming in the history of Metal. King Diamond is unique, but there have been imitators that match his style, and Steve Bridges of Witchfynde sounded just like King Diamond on the 1980 song Stagefright, which predated Mercyful Fate. No one has yet been able to duplicate Tom Araya's screaming, and no one prior sounded like him
