Yeah Hanneman IMO wrote the better songs, well at least when I’d see his name on the credits of each song on the cd’s as a young-un, they were always the ones I was more into.
the way they treated Lombardo, obviously not being involved in the band but hearing his side of the story in a video when he got kicked out the last time didn’t paint Kerry or Tom in a very good light. Basically he earnt $50k the whole year as a drummer for Slayer and he wanted to see where all the $$ was going (management, promoters, roadies etc etc) and the other 2 got a bee in there bonnet and told him don’t bother turning up for practice for Soundwave (they were a week from coming out to Oz)Pretty f**king harsh IMO but there could be more to it but from all the interviews and shit I have seen over 25 years of them, Kerry comes across as a complete f**kwit so I reckon Lombardos version is probably on the money.
Lombardos band he was in during the mid 90’s during the first departure from Slayer (Grip Inc.) are f**king real good. The singer is dead now but they were criminally under rated. This song gave me goosebumps when I first heard it in 1995
Spacey check out Behemoth mate if you haven’t already. someone in here put me on to them and I rate them deluxe.
