This album cover is very close to me as the first concert I ever attended was a Slayer one on the "Repentless" tour in the September of 2015. There is so much to this album cover however it could be deemed as offensive to some older, old fashioned or more religious audiences due to the graphic nature of Jesus being grievously tortured. This is Slayers sixteenth studio album released on the eleventh of September 2015. Firstly I am going to talk about the huge circle with the swords cutting through it making a pentagram or satanic star in the background. This has been an on-going theme since their debut album back in 1983. This is sort of their logo just as Iron Maiden have Eddie the Head and Motorhead have Snaggletooth as I have stated in my earlier posts. However as technology has developed so has the appearance of Slayers albums, this is the first album where the star has been on fire and glowing orange and gold due to the flames, this suites the rest of the album...
