R.I.P Jeff Hannemann

[SuperTimCahill]

I don't know if there's any other metal fans in here, but still. A LEGEND like Jeff Hannemann, the guitar player in Slayer if you didn't know, deserve a thread. I'll never forget this birthday. Rest in peace, you utter thrash metal legend. Is this the end of Slayer?

RIP.

Divine Intervention is my favourite metal album of all time.

 

[Gwladys St. Glory]

Says liver failure but was that caused by the problem he had earlier or was it from too much drink? Either way...RIP. Left his mark in music, that's all you can ask for. And no, you're not the only metal supporter here.

RIP Jeff. One of the best shows I've ever been to was Slayer being supported by Lamb Of God, In Flames and Children Of Bodom and one of the first thrash songs I learnt on guitar was Raining Blood.

Oh wow. R.I.P. Legend.

Reign in Blood is still the benchmark thrash metal LP really.

 

[Big Neville Southall]

Sad to hear that, South of Heaven was my favourite of theirs.

Just read he contracted Necrotising Fasciitis from a spiderbite and it caused his liver to fail.

Fecking grim, poor bloke.
