Cost: $2.00
Already had this and it wasn't in the best of shape, but I couldn't live with myself if I just left it in the bargain bin. Just a quick track-by-track of my opinions:
Chemical Warfare - Perfect example of upping Show No Mercy's extremity. As much as I love Hell Awaits, I'd pick this as a better song over any of those tracks. Fantastic.
Captor of Sin - While I don't hate it, something about this song never clicked with me. Maybe it's too upbeat or something. Actually one of my least favorite early Slayer songs, along with "At Dawn They Sleep" and "Final Command."
Haunting the Chapel - Although rightfully largely overshadowed by "Chemical Warfare," this stands on its own merits as quite the evil metal hymn. Probably the most overtly blasphemous Slayer song. Love that end part!
Aggressive Perfector - Great speed metal. Easily stands both stylistically and quality-wise with the more traditional/speed/USPM material on Show No Mercy.
