│║ Description : ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ This limited edition box set provides a great ║ │
│║ overview of Slayer's career with American ║ │
│║ Recordings. There are generally 2 common types ║ │
│║ of box sets, one is a really huge best-of ║ │
│║ compilation and the other is a giant collection ║ │
│║ of rarities and bonus tracks. Soundtrack to the ║ │
│║ Apocalypse is an excellently assembled ║ │
│║ combination of the 2. ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ The first disc is a collection of 5 songs from ║ │
│║ Reign in Blood, 5 from South of Heaven, 5 from ║ │
│║ Seasons in the Abyss, and 3 songs from Decade of ║ │
│║ Aggression (all Metal Blade material). There is ║ │
│║ an error on the track listing of Disc 1. The ║ │
│║ songs ôLive Undeadö and ôSilent Screamö are ║ │
│║ mixed up. Disc 2 is a collection of material ║ │
│║ from the albums Divine Intervention, Undisputed ║ │
│║ Attitude, Diabolus in Musica, God Hates Us All, ║ │
│║ and 4 tracks only available on Japanese ║ │
│║ releases. It would be really hard to get a ║ │
│║ better compilation of all their albums than ║ │
│║ this. Just about all of the classics a fan could ║ │
│║ ask for are here. ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ The 3rd disc comprises of rare live material, ║ │
│║ appropriately titled ôShit YouÆve Never Heardö. ║ │
│║ The audio quality is decent enough to understand ║ │
│║ what is being played. Some definite highlights ║ │
│║ include: ôIce Titanö (an unreleased song that ║ │
│║ was drastically altered to become ôAlter of ║ │
│║ Sacrificeö on Reign in Blood), an early live ║ │
│║ bootleg of ôNecrophiliacö with a ôtastefulö ║ │
│║ spoken intro by Tom Araya, rehearsals of ôThe ║ │
│║ Antichristö and ôFight Till Deathö, and Jeff ║ │
│║ HannemanÆs home recordings of ôRaining Bloodö ║ │
│║ and ôSouth of Heavenö. ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ Disc 4 is a DVD with live concert footage ║ │
│║ spanning Slayer's career from 1983 up to ║ │
│║ 2003.The audio and video quality isnÆt that good ║ │
│║ at the beginning but it gets progressively ║ │
│║ better. My favorite on here would definitely be ║ │
│║ ôDie by the Swordö, showing an early Slayer in ║ │
│║ excellent form (this was so early in SlayerÆs ║ │
│║ career that they were still wearing eyeliner to ║ │
│║ look ôextra evilö). I prefer this version of the ║ │
│║ song to the one on Show No Mercy. ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ Now for the extra stuff included in the Deluxe ║ │
│║ Edition. Disc 5 is the first live concert that ║ │
│║ has been played since Dave Lombardo returned in ║ │
│║ 2003. This concert CD, instead of being housed ║ │
│║ in a jewel case, is in Slayer's infamous "blood ║ │
│║ pack" sleeve (also used for the Seasons in the ║ │
│║ Abyss single back in 1990). It's a clear plastic ║ │
│║ sleeve with fake blood and floating skulls ║ │
│║ inside. Audio quality is excellent and it is not ║ │
│║ overdubbed in any way, shape or form. The only ║ │
│║ possible downside to this recording is Tom ║ │
│║ Araya, his voice just canÆt take it anymore. ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ Also included is a large booklet about the ║ │
│║ history of Slayer and many of their ║ │
│║ controversies. To complete this collection are ║ │
│║ huge red wall banner with the Slayer eagle logo ║ │
│║ and an inverted cross in the background, and a ║ │
│║ replica concert laminate. ║ │
│║ All of the discs and extra goodies are packaged ║ │
│║ in an "ammo box" which also looks pretty cool. ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ There are really only 2 problems with this set. ║ │
│║ One is that there isnÆt enough early material ║ │
│║ (on Metal Blade Records). The other is that the ║ │
│║ Deluxe Edition is a bit pricey, so newer fans ║ │
│║ may want the standard 4 Disc edition instead. ║ │
│║ When I bought this, the only Slayer album that I ║ │
│║ owned was Reign in Blood and I knew that I had ║ │
│║ to get this. Definitely worth the high price ║ │
│║ tag. ║ │
