One Last Breath: An Autopsy of Awful Albums

Diabolica in Musica - Slayer


Listen Later

In the 20th episode of One Last Breath, your hosts discuss the eighth album “Diabolus in Musica” by American thrash metal band Slayer. This release by the band came at a time in the late 90’s when almost every veteran metal band was struggling to find their identity among a changing musical landscape. Many critics and fans point to this as the “nu metal” Slayer album, with most pointing out the obvious alternative metal and groove metal influences. This all makes for the most poorly received album by the most consistently received band of thrash metal’s big 4. Diabolus in Musica was a quick experimentation from the band, as for the rest of their career they would course correct to the sounds explored in their 80s and early 90s catalogue.
