Since forming in 1981, Slayer has been at the forefront of thrash metal, earning multiple Grammy nominations and influencing countless bands worldwide with classic albums such as "Reign In Blood" and "Seasons In The Abyss." Nuclear Blast is renowned for its dedication to heavy music genres, supporting iconic acts across metal?s diverse spectrum since 1987.
Repentless is first Slayer album without Jeff (R.I.P.) and we can see that in musical way. Usually, all Slayer albums in my opinion are excellent or fantastic, but this... This is just good. The title song is really great and that's it. Other songs are great but not like Repentless. But anyway, this is Slayer album in a Slayer way so you will know what you will expect but with some weaker songs.

Repentless ist wohl sicher eins der besten Slayer Alben in den letzten Zwanzig Jahren. Auch ohne Jeff Hannemann sind die Songs wirklich gut gelungen und überzeugen mid den typischen Slayer Trademarks....
