Slayer vs Kreator. Who ripped off whom?

[UHHiloveyou.]

No I get you entirely. A lot of punk music (late 70's) sounRAB better without the refinement of good production. However I hate a bad snare sound and ENDLESS PAIN is just ruined by this. The album on my mp3 player at the moment is EXTREME AGRESSION and it holRAB up pretty well, considering it is nearly twenty years old!

We can see similarities but this isn't strange... They have the same influences... (like Venom and many others...)

I only have Kreator's "Endless Pain" and Slayer's "Reign in Blood." and neither of them sound like the other.

The one other thing they both share in common is that neither have particularly developed at all in 20+ years. Which is really quite appalling, and even more erabarrassing.

Slayer are similar to Venom in some respects, but I don't really like Venom and I adore Slayer so there you go.

 

[Ttttttttt]

I only have Venom's "Metal Black" album, but I've heard their older stuff is more raw and more... I guess, "out of control."

It's god damn thrash metal. Everybody rips off everybody else.
