Scott's Metal Track of the Day (Guest Host Travis) - Skeletons of Society by Slayer

It's me again, your favorite guest host! Scott Brame asked if I'd like to hold down the fort until Sunday, and I said, "SURE THING PAL". Come back tomorrow to hear what I choose for the "Weekend Wildcard" pick!

Your daily metal track for Friday is from SLAYER, the greatest metal band ever (that isn't Pantera). I chose SLAYER because they can play like crazy. The track I picked, "Skeletons of Society," is evidence of this. It's track 7 off "Seasons in the Abyss," released in late 1990.

The album wasn't a big commercial success or anything, but it BLEEDS EXTREME RIFFS... and hit men listen to it in their walkmans while they are training for their next job. "Skeletons of Society" was the track that got the most play on my tape.

FUN FACT: This album, and many others by SLAYER, were produced at least in part by your favorite rapper's producer. Shout out to Rick Rubin, yo. Prolific.
