I was wondering what your favorite metal albums are? Also, what was it like being a metalhead when Reign in Blood dropped?

MY ANSWER

That’s a big question…..Reign In Blood, Bonded By Blood, Damaged: Token Remedies Research, Soilent Green: Sewn Mouth Secrets, Sleep: Jerusalem, Iron Maiden: Piece of Mind, Raven: All For One, Mercyful Fate: Melissa, to name just a few of the late 20th century….

Hard to describe what it was like in ‘86 when RIB dropped. We were anticipating it. Master of Puppets had dropped a few months earlier and the hairs on our necks were already raised. I think I was dumbfounded and couldn’t take it out of the cassette player for months.
