Sorry, but the only pin that Slayer is out selling is WWE and that won't be by much.

Quoted from nephasth:You can say that about any band past the fifth album...
Beatles made it past 5.
Been listening to to much Slayer, probably couldn't hear it over the speed guitars that are ringing in your ears from the concert you went to years ago.
Quoted from nephasth:I go to, on average 3 death metal shows a month. I get my hearing tested by work every year, and my hearing is above average. But hey man, way to let mainstream media tell you what you should like! Cheers!
Actually I listen to almost everything, minus techno/house or what ever you would like to call it. I don't listen to the media when it comes to my choices, but thanks. There are far more than those that have put out more than 5 good albums but I just went the easy route.
Also lighten up a bit I was only kidding about the hearing thing. It was a Death Metal concert joke, we all know those concerts are loud as hell.
Quoted from Gryszzz:What ?
Where?

You can shoot me down and call me main stream again but my vote for a Death/Speed Metal pin would be Megadeth. Vic in the artwork and Mustaine on guitar and vocals. However, it would be another pin that probably won't sell to the biggest of crowds.
Quoted from nephasth:That's funny. I always laugh when people say "I like all kinds of music". It lets me know that they have to have their opinions fed to them from someone/somewhere else.
Megadeth is Death Metal? Man you're on roll! You really have no clue. In case you were wondering... Slayer isn't Death Metal either. And Megadeth is closer to the mainstream end of metal...
As far as "shooting you down"... You kind of deserve it coming into a Slayer thread to shoot Slayer down. You don't see me going over to an Almond Brothers or whatever thread shitting on the band. You don't like Slayer? Great! Move along.
Hey bud that is Allman not Almond, they aren't a candy bar.
Also I didn't shoot Slayer, the band, down. I said the pin wouldn't sell very well. You were the one defending their album history, which I said nothing about, just said there was bands that had better than 5 good albums. I don't remember ever saying I didn't like Slayer.
Did you forget this is a forum where people express opinions. Didn't know we all had to agree on every single topic.
You are right I should have figured this was the response would get, sorry I hurt your feelings.
Quoted from Schusler:Neph, would you agree Megadeth went through different classifications on their albums? I'll throw out the Death Metal category but speed/thrash I can see it on Killing is my Business and the subsequent albums. I'll put technical as a category w/ Rust in Peace. But definitely I would just use 'metal' on their latter releases.
As you can tell... Megadeth is my favorite band.
Quoted from nephasth:Absolutely. These days I would just call Megadeth a Heavy Metal band. Same with Metallica and Anthrax. They were thrash in the early days, but not anymore. Exodus though... They're still thrashing and I love me some Exodus, old and new.
Thank you.
Quoted from AlexSMendes:hehe... Look at how much I paid for my bread today....
That is expensive bread.
Edit:
Oh wait, you are in Rio.
Quoted from Pickle:I can't imagine Stern wanting to be associated with any band with a controversy over Satanism......people talk about bands selling out.
Not to mention operations. I know of several places that wouldn't get WNBJM because of the sexual innuendo. My feeling is this pin would fall into the same category for the Satanist aspect, regardless of how true it actually is.
