Metal Blade to release two different versions of Slayer's 'Show No Mercy' for 40 year anniversary
Official press release:
Formed in 1981, Slayer assaulted the world with a new hybrid of metal and punk - heavier, faster and darker than the rest - and set a new standard, defining not only a genre, but an attitude. Throughout Slayer's history, the band never faltered in unleashing their extreme and focused aural assault, and repudiating temptations, Slayer always chose to remain crushing and brutal, steadfastly refusing to cater to the mainstream.
Now celebrating its 40th anniversary, Show No Mercy is the debut studio album by American thrash metal masters, Slayer. The album was initially released on December 3, 1983, by Metal Blade Records, who, in honor of Show No Mercy's 40th anniversary, will be unleashing two unique pieces of vinyl for fans: A limited edition "Blood" filled liquid vinyl - limited to 250 worldwide, and the Show No Mercy (40th Anniversary Edition) vinyl set that includes a Gold Black Dust LP mastered for vinyl from the original master tapes by Patrick W. Engel at TEMPLE OF DISHARMONY, a slipmat, poster, show flyers, signing card, and an LP booklet featuring the story of Show No Mercy, written by J. Bennett.

Post CommentIt's supposed to be "too different" dumbass
What exactly is the point of these special variants that only have 250 worldwide? Why not press like at least 5,000
Dont know whats more gay, the pentagram or the Lmnop pride flag.
What exactly is the point of these special variants that only have 250 worldwide? Why not press like at least 5,000 ^because they want to be able to charge outlandish prices and limiting supply enables them to do so. Those things will fetch serious $$$$ a decade from now.

Time 2 Shine, To Release To and One 4 One should play
Free fresh fish to anyone who can name the debut album from Slayer... GCTC rep
"Dont know whats more gay, the pentagram or the Lmnop pride flag." Considering they are one in the same...
People are going to be left with a lot of worthless vinyl when the market collapses in a year or two
