Slayer Vinyl Box Due In October
Career spanning box from metal heavyweights on its way
Slayer have compiled their most recent nine studio and live albums into a brand new vinyl box set.
Vinyl Conflict is released on 12 October via the band’s official website and it pulls together all of their American Recordings albums from 1986’s Reign In Blood to last year’s World Painted Blood.
"Most longtime Slayer fans may not have these records at this point," said American Recordings' Dino Paredes, "or their copies are completely beat-up, so to have the complete catalog in this first-class presentation is terrific. For the newer fans, this is their opportunity to really get into this band the way that they could have if they were born 20 years earlier."
All the albums have been re-mastered from the original analog flat master tapes and were pressed on the highest quality, 180-gram audiophile vinyl at RTI, the most-respected pressing plant in the U.S. and among the best in the world. Lacquers were cut and re-cut several times to ensure the highest sound quality. The individual vinyl discs will come in a standard, clear inner sleeve to preserve the vinyl, are then housed in high-quality litho-wrapped jackets, and then boxed in a hardcover slipcase. Additionally, reproductions of the original LP inner sleeve artwork were converted to 12X12 inserts.
Here’s the albums included in the box:
Reign in Blood (1986)
South of Heaven (1988)
Seasons in the Abyss (1990)
Live Decade of Aggression (1991)
Divine Intervention (1994)
Undisputed Attitude (1998)
God Hates Us All (2001)
Christ Illusion (2006)
World Painted Blood (2009)
