Necrophiliac Live

Feel the birth of American thrash with this ferocious live performance from Slayer at Ruthie's Inn, Berkeley, 1984. Homespun brings you the radio broadcast from KFAT-FM, captured at a time when speed and aggression were being rewritten, this performance shows the band raw, hungry, and absolutely unstoppable. Fresh off Show No Mercy, Slayer tear through razor-sharp riffs, savage rhythms, and breakneck tempos with street-level intensity. Jeff Hanneman and Kerry King's guitars slash, Dave Lombardo's double-kick detonates, and Tom Araya's venomous vocals lead the charge. No polish, no restraint -- just pure underground power. This is Slayer before the world caught up: faster, darker, and deadlier than the rest. An essential snapshot of thrash metal in its most violent, historic form.
